help me price some parts At a swap meet.... what would you expect to see for a price? what would you offer?
i'm trying to come up with prices for parts for the swap meet this weekend... i've looked in the f/s & wanted sections & have an idea on some parts, & i've even looked some up on ebay. but i want more input. since i haven't been into f-bodies for years i really don't know what some parts may be worth.
please go through the list below (i know it's incomplete) and give me an idea of what you think i should ask for the parts.
I am not tying to sell them on here. just looking for input & help. if you have questions about them that may change the values please ask & i'll try to answer.
if some parts do not sell at the swap meet then i may later post them on the f/s board here, but for now please don't ask. that is NOT the purpose of this post.

I know this is way off topic...
But did both of you buy F-Bodys, wreck them, and are now swapping the motors into RX-7's? Or am I just being crazy, nothing against you... just a little weird.
Anyway, I would look at how much all the prices go for brand new, and low-ball them quite a bit until you can come up with some reliable numbers when put up against similar parts being sold on Ebay, The Boards, and any other auctions you can find.
I think that would be your best bet for getting rid of everything, and good luck with the swaps if that's what you plan on doing. Hate to see two f-bodys wrecked though

.We bought them both already wrecked- somebody else did the honors, and there were far from salvageable. got fair deals, just had to go through the work of stripping them & now selling off what's not needed. it's a longer route to the same end, hopefully it saves us a little money this way too... it's just more work

pics?
sorry that's the one thing i didn't do. i was in a rush to tear it down, get any good parts out, get the shell to the crusher, & take all i don't belive i need to the swap meet
the engine definitely has center-bolt valve covers, and it was titled as a 99.
we took the stuff to the fairgrounds today. we need to get rid of this stuff, the booth is full, stuff is piled up. i should have got 2 booths... oh well. come get it, i don't want to bring it home.
in transit some stuff got chewed up... the bumpers got scratched up pretty bad, and one radiator now has a broken tank... there's no telling what else got torn up.

Remember you are at a swapmeet people are there trying to talk down prices.
My husband ended up getting a set of Wheels & Tires for his 67 there the guy wanted $120 for the set of 4 but I talked him down to $100 ( would have sweet talked him down more if it sat there longer but husband saw them first thing in the morning)

I talked ot you there for a couple of minutes asking you about the bolts and such.
I know what you mean about the prices. It was irritating sometimes the ridiculous offers and lies people will tell you about prices they've seen and can get. I had $200 on a set of 17x9.5 ZR-1 wheels (rate them an 8 of 10) to fit a early C4. A guy told me he could buy them for $100 a pair elsewhere so that what he'd offer me. I told him he should buy em from the other guy then... lol
It was pretty tough to sell anything newer than 1970 for anything more than $150 or so. They just aren't getting the new stuff around there. Engines don't sell worth crap either. No one brings real money out (>$1000). My largest sale was a $600 one and it was to another vendor... on Sunday.

that was you about the bolts huh? i had no clue
let me know what you need, the buckets of bolts are down at my brother's place... i might have it.
I was real tempted to bring a big plastic tray, spread out all the nuts/bolts/ fasteners/misc & post a a price of a handful for a buck.
they seem to go for cheap stuff... the guy in the booth beside mine probly made $1000 on saturday alone, one of his kids probly made $200 just going around w/ the wagon & a 'for hire' sign. he was selling cheap used tools, some were really nice stuff too, and a few rusty crusty car parts.
