Re: Need H10 coke bottle plugs. Got ANY
I had to pay $850 for a set. I know it is stupid. Cheaper than the NOS 40 headlights I bought. It is the price to pay for playing in that sandbox.
Also, what judges do and what they should do are often at odds. I agree with Mike Kubarth, deductions for 5 rib plugs should happen. Last time I judged, was told to "overlook that" as well as some obvious rust. I hate to see standards slipping but they are. Last edited by deuce_roadster; 01-20-2022 at 07:58 PM. |

When they are changed to a point that non-authentic / non-correct is accepted at the same level as authentic / correct, I'll stop judging. What's the point of judging if the award no longer has meaning?

Re: Need H10 coke bottle plugs. Got ANY
I actually had pursued that very thing many years ago. Champion was more than willing and able to accurately reproduce the plugs for me. Cost (around 1990 or so) was $3 each. Minimum quantity was 100,000 pieces.

Re: Need H10 coke bottle plugs. Got ANY
Tom, H9's have little value, maybe $100 for that set. H9's are not rare at all. Sorry for the bad news.

Some off brand spark plug. Pix out of the box might help identify them.

Re: Need H10 coke bottle plugs. Got ANY
Like others I have gone through my old sparkplugs. In the '80s I was given a nice bunch of old plugs considered duplicates in the collections of octogenarians at our yearly hit n miss/ tractor show. I pulled out some splitdorfs, edisons, rajahs, lincoln, maytag (for the gas washing machine)you name it but no coke
bottles. I swear there's a box way back in a closet. Haven't moved since I built this old cracker box in 1980. But gonna look for that box tomorrow.
