- Thanks Geoff. I've been trying to acquire a set on and off since I first saw YOUR twin 38s. On Ebay I lost a set that was similar to yours but in terrible shape and re-painted oddly... Those sold for $315. Then from Rob at Scuba Museum I almost got a set of Sportsways 42s but one of them didn't pass hydro.
- My friend Tom McClusky told me about this set of USD 38s. They belonged to this guys father who dove them in Lake Superior back in the early 60's. They have not been hydro tested since they were new in 1961. The interiors are pristine white. And, the valves have never been wrenched. He sold them to me for $100!
- Needless to say, I'm not only thrilled about the 38s but also at the good deal I was given.
