Just wondering....Any one out there have any sucess selling take off parts? ie: Intake manifold,mufflers,Brake Rotors.......all parts have less than 4,000 miles on them.

 

Ive got a sixxer and im taking the right GT muffler off my friend for $40 and he is still trying to sell the left one, it wont bolt up right to a 6er. Im looking for a GT front bumper also.

 

when i got my rebuild kit for my 03 mach 1 i had my buddy ebay the stock parts i didn't use[throttle body, intake manifold, heads, camshaftetc]. same with when i bought the remanufactured long block for my 93 5.0 a year ago. brand new stuff never used.

 

Stuff like used intake manifolds,, sure

Stuff like used brake rotors,,, umm good luck

 

I have a stock shifter, cmcv plates with motor, harmonic balancer, waterpump pulley, and intake tube with airbox sitting in a box in my attic.

 

it all depends on the part you are trying to sell. dont expect a lot cash for stock parts though.

 

If you aint gunna use them...i'd sell them. You be surprized what you can make off old car parts. I bought a 94 Explorer from a local owner for $400 which was pretty beat up with 280k miles on it...but ran ok.I basically bought it for the AC compressor for my Ranger. I decided to just part it out on Ebay because i had no more use for it. I stripped it down and sold about 3/4 of the vehicle in parts....interior,transmission,engine parts,lights,switches,computer....well you get the picture. I profitted $2400 and a free AC. I gave the rest of it away to a kid down the street who wanted the rear axle. Enough ramblin from me...sell it if ya know your not going to use it.

 

If you have time,you might get ahold of some auto shops in the area and give them a list of the things you have.That way,when somebody comes in with a need for your part,the shop can give you a call.
Work out the price or conditions of the sale before the call comes in because the shop needs to make money too.
