It is in great condition. It came out of an early sixties six cylinder, so I have no idea how many miles are on it. I have cleaned it really well.

Maybe, but to show condition you have to show the wear side of the rockers, not just the top, and a pic of the bottom of shaft with the rocker pulled over to the side, showing wear on shaft.
That shaft has not put back together right, the front oil bleed stand is on the rear where oil comes from and will starve the front rockers of oil. When you take it apart to put the stand in the right place, would be a good time to take pics of all wear surfaces.

Thanks so much for the insight. This is a 60 year old rocker arm. I’m sure there is the appropriate wear that all of our rocker arms have. Perhaps the person who buys it would benefit from your knowledge. I really appreciate you offering it to us.

Well, friends, I'm cleaning out my garage and parting with all my extra mustang stuff. I hate to see an adjustable rocker arm go to the recycler, but that's what's going to have to happen. I'll be taking a load next Thursday. If you are interested in this part, let me know.
Friends? If you can't get more money than a probably worn-out part is worth, but that still has some value as a rebuildable core for someone that needs it, you'll just throw it away? New shafts are relatively cheap, and that old one is almost certainly shot. Strip the stands, springs, and rockers off the shaft to save a lot on shipping and you might get some money for that stuff. I could use three loose adjustable rockers to complete a set for rebuilding. But $150 for an assembly that will need a new shaft and all the rockers re-bushed before I'd put it on a rebuilt engine? No thanks.
