I'm always looking for parts cars for Sloan Racing. Two cars come to mind
when I think of great deals. We got a running 1600 for $100 and were
surprised when we found out it came with a parts car. The other "deal" was
listed as a 'early roadster'. Turned out to be a collection of parts,
rusted and greasy, in several different garages and bedrooms. After
gathering most of the major parts, I asked about the interior. First the
dashboard came out of a bedroom, and I didn't really look at it. But when
the seats came out, in fantastic condition, complete with 67.5 head rests, I
knew it was a well spent $300.

I don't think this went to the list
Well, despite the attitude displayed toward me and my comment/situation, I
will
reply with out returning the favor.......................
The part car for $500 I got from a guy who manages one of the part stores in
Madison. He should have known what he had.
I got another part car for $700 that was nearly complete as well; and it was
a
69 2000 with fairly nice tear drop marker lights.
I turned down a low windscreen 1600 part car that was complete and in decent
shape. Seller wanted between $600 and $750--it was not a 67.5 btw. I turned
it
down as I didn't have the room at the time and low windscreen cars are to
small
for me so I don't want to get started with them as I will end up wanting to
restore one.
I have a lead on two more part cars, both complete, one 1600 and the other a
2000, both are high windscreen cars. Seller wants $1000 for them. I believe
that
there are extras with this sale as well. I will pursue this as some of the
extras are NOS. Possibly delivered for gas $ only.
I know of another car for sale under $1000 that runs.
So, attitude asside, These prices seem to actually be more of the norm out
here
in the sticks.
And I have NEVER complained about the prices the vendors want for what they
have. Well, maybe brake parts. ;-) lol
