Hello,
First post here for me.
Hope you guys don't mind, I am posting about a Higgins LCVP, not a PT boat, but maybe someone will have a few tips for me.
So I salvaged some parts from this Higgins WWII LCVP, the ones that landed at Normandy. Namely, the helm steering system, Masthead light,Shifter, Raw water strainer and various other parts.
Looking to sell, trying to determine a value. If anyone has info, please contact me at 3 6 0 - 7 4 2 - 0 7 0 7, email is joethanem@yahoo.com

Thanks for any info in advance.

Thanks Joe,
I will ask around if anybody needs these parts. By the way from your phone number are you local to Washington State area? Are you close to Portland? If so, some of my contacts might want to see the parts in person.
Thanks Jerry
