springs are gone, but i sent an email on the bird. it's worth it just for some parts. I could strip stuff off that, and turn around and sell the parts for $600 AND sell the car to a junkyard.

all in all, it would be worh the 400 for the
-Jegs Subframe Connectors
-Edelbrock Strut tower braceDual Cooling Fans w/ relays and controller
-Borg 9 bolt rear w/ disc brakes
-Stock 10 bolt rear w/ drum brakes (extra)-A/C Delete Heater box

the rest is a bonus. Very Happy

Got an email back this evening. Asked if I can come take a look tomorrow. If this goes off like I hope it will I may have plenty of parts for sale soon.

current plan = Strip for usable parts and offload rolling chassis. Unless of course I can pull a Rodney and fix the thing for cheap. Very Happy

signed a bill of sale today! The seller is delivering on saturday, that is when i will hand over the loot.

The subframes are bolted in, so no cutting will be required to get them off. I don't think the strut tower bar was ever installed. These pieces will make it onto the GTA.

the Power Bulge hood will go in my shed, for a future on one of my cars. The tires look brand new, some no name brand all season radial. I will probably run these on my 86, along with the 15" wheels until the tires are toast. Then I will reinstall the brand new tires I just bought and 16" wheels. Unless someone wants them..?

The rear end in the car is a 9 Bolt with disc brakes, the car comes with a 10 bolt drum rear as well. I will swap those around and keep the 9 Bolt in my shed.

The cars rear bumper and front right fender will be removed, painted white (rattle can yo!) and placed on my 86 firebird to replace the badly damaged pieces that are on there now.

the 145MPH speedometer and gauge cluster will be for sale after i clean it up and polish the lens.

the locking rear cargo area cover (PPD style!) will be sold. interior is grey.

Rest of the grey interior is pretty rough.

I'll probably keep the Steering column as well, i sold my spare to a crewbie a while back.

A nice set of tail lights (86-90 base model/formula) will be up for sale soon.

I don't yet know what else is good on the car, the body is in real rough shape.

Current owner says that the engine seized while the car was sitting.

If anyone has any parts requests i'd get them in now. i'll make a post in the for sale board once i have cleaned the thing up a bit and start pulling parts.
Smile

Sounds like an awesome parts car Tony. Glad you could make the deal. Very Happy

Oh.. and how are the seatbelts??

The ad mentioned a T/A hood? Confused

T/A must mean Powerbulge in crackhead craigslist-ville. Razz

No, powerbulge is on the car, maroon t/a hood is additional. And no crackheads here. They are moving and need it gone quick. Nice folks.

Seatbelts are probably ok, but dirty. There is some mold in the interior.
