I'd like to get an idea of what some parts are worth

    72skylark 4 Doors of Fury!

    There's a nice 72 lark 4 dr at the local junkyard. Almost completely rust free, I don't know how this one managed it around here, mine was garaged most it's life and still has some rust. Anyway, he said someone put a deposit down on it, but they look like they may back out. I told him I need the rear bumper/taillights from it defiantly, so he's gonna call me if the buyer backs out.
    We didn't talk any price yet, and I'm not sure how much he is selling the whole car for. I can't take the whole car. When I find out, I may make him an offer for "whatever I can pull off the car". The front fenders look mint. the interior is a little beat.
    So what is the going rate for the following so I don't pay to much, and know what to offer-
    Front fenders rust free
    rear bumper, straight/solid, need re-chrome
    both tailight lenses

    also things I don't need but might pick up "if the price is right"
    front bumper, straight/solid, need rechrome to be perfect

    Anything else that might be worth snagging?


    Thanks
    -Nick

    parts car

    Nick,

    Buy the whoe car. I need a set of fenders and I'm sure there are other parts I'd buy and that other members would buy. See what you can get the whole thing for and let me know. If it's as nice as you say, I'll drive up there to pick the parts up. I'd probably take the frt clip less hood and bumper.

    I wish I could get the whole car. The problem is storage. I literally couldn't even store it for a weekend while I rip parts off. Still living with the parents so... we got 6 cars + flat bed here already. no way we could squeze another in.
    But If the guy does back out, the junkyard would probally turn it into a cube, they really like to do that. So I could prolly get whatever I want off of it... hopefully for a lot price. If there is any other specific things you're looking for lemme know, and I can check if this car has it. I'll know in a few days if the guy backed out or not.
    BTW if you're wondering why the car is in the junkyard... the 350 motor is in the trunk. Why exactly I'm not sure. I didn't look to much at the car. Also for reference it's got a black interior.

    Unfortunatly, the person who was buying the car did find room for it, so it is sold...
