    Clearly ownership of this item is contributing to quite a bit of stress in your life....I will gladly take this item off of your hands and remove the stress it is causing you....Think how much happier you would be if you weren't always worried about how to describe it.....I volunteer to take on that burden.....I am here to help...<grin>

    I completely agree, but it has become common to just add the terms rare vintage 60's or early or whatever, even if you don't know if it is from the 60's or it's a late or or not rare at all or what I'd call vintage.
    I think it's best to stay with facts and represent your stuff with all it's flaws or other attributes it has. If you don't know the facts just write "nice" as that is in the eye of the beholder opposed to 60's for 70's items or so.

    Uai, I agree as well,
    The purpose of the exercise was to display the reactions of people when someone posts a part for sale and 'candy floss's' it up with hyperboles like Vintage , 1st Generation, Rare, bla bla bla.
    The feed back was good and the banter humorous which was great.
    As for the MoMo
    It sits in the 72 awaiting my hands until tomorrows drive (the car needs its Health Check for Govt Licensing)
    and is still just a
    Flat, Stacked, 360, MoMo Prototipo from the late 60's to early 70's
    and I love it.
