Vette(s): 1972 conv, 4-speed, 350, 200hp, numbers match, rally wheels, war bonnett yellow w/white top. good condition, nice driver.

I purchased a pair at a flea market type sale. New, stainless steel, they were the type that are used in the medical field. They have a lock on the grip to hold tubes or bandages while work is being done. They work well as inside snap ring pliers also.
