    Is that really £3600.00 or is there one to many zeros on that?

    some 15-20 years ago i put a battered airbox lid on ebay, it made something like £150 back then so im hardly surprised to see that price for the whole thing

    I think you have missed that boat . Air boxes were probably binned years ago in favour of trendy K&N filters etc. Now if you are doing a concours resto and need one supply and demand dictates the price.

    Your mint escort twin cam now must be worth £50-70 grand.

    Why? His parts his price. If you're building a Twincam and you need the part to finish the resto which will be worth £50k plus when done its nothing. If you had one you'd want as much as you could get-just like with everything else. Anyway leave the guys ad alone.

    No such a think mate when it comes to any twin cam parts... i saw them go from 500 to 1800 pounds, but again is all about supply and demand.

    Escort Twin Cam Airbox Complete and Origianl For Sale

    If it is a genuine one complete etc. I would put on eBay for a buy now but ask for offers that way you could gauge it. There is a limited demand given the number of twin cams out there but you only need 1 person to need it badly. But to get a big price it really needs to be correct etc. There air boxes out there that look like right one but are not I think there was a jag or something had a similar air box.

    👍

    Then probably if is made from steel is geniune and if is from alloy if repro?

    Little bit funny is to give 1-2k and that you are not sure that is original :-)

    It just goes to show that a part will only sell for what someone wants to pay. admittedly we only have the sellers word on that...
