I think I'm wrong, I might have the 12" ones (I'm a metric guy so with inches I have to think twice...). I do have the SE package with the doortrims though so it's gotta be the longer ones.




"But my wife told me this was 12 Inches!!"    (sorry, could'nt resist that...)

The 12" ones are the rare/hard to find ones. They were used on cars that got the trim on the top of the doors, SE molding.   :clueless: I believe the shorter ones are re-popped, but not the longer ones.  :popcorn:

The long ones were repopped but they aren't any longer....

Geez if you guys are really that short, you might feel more at home posting on a Corvette forum!  :icon16:
To get this train back on the tracks, another item I'd love to see reproduced is an original style gold with the raised M on the end oil filter.  NOS ones are worth their weight in gold!
