Hey guys, How much are good streight bumpers worth? and how much are perfectly functional good condition roundies worth??

thanks, project is going well, check out the link, and more pics soon

I have rectangular lukas fogs, i think they came stock on the car.. there are original factory drilled holes in the bumper.

What are they worth?

Why are you parting that car? It does not look that bad. We don't get them up here in the northeast like that much anymore.

see above ^^^

because I'm resoring my car back to new. this is how it looked before

its true, the parts car isn't to bad. but I'm going to use the front end to fix the other one i have.. that is in.. or was in perfect condition. so it's going to a good cause.

I'm pretty good at making something look better than it is. the parts car's shock towers are rusted through, the C pillar on the passenger side is majorly rusted. and so is the rear driver fender. the car doesn't run, though i am going to see if i can get it going.

What are these worth?

Will be parting out 72 2002 soon. check my thread on project cars for details

For sure dude, its got some mechanical upgrades, new carbo, header, exhaust system. which is cool. there is some major stuctural rust in the passenger C tower, and both rear shock towers are shot. but the floor is solid, and the trim is great!

yeah! for sure, i can't wait to get my car back. its my only car, and everyday driver! so i miss it quite alot

Got a parts car today that is actually a decent 2002. its a 72. nothing to fancy but i will be kinda swapping some stuff. parting out the rest

heres my picasa album http://picasaweb.google.com/grayboy/Besties#

Making progress, Got parts car, and I am working on getting my car takin apart. parts car images soon.

My poor baby before the wreck.

I found new parts car. hopefully it works out.

The parts car was a huge LIE and a bunch of bull sh*t.... inch of bondo on like the whole car, and non of the chrom was there at all.. wasnt even a floor in the car and im pissed at the guy..

it was a nice 300 mi round trip for nothing..

still looking for parts.

Thanks

inquiry noted

Yes, I'm not sure what the condition its in cause I haven't seen in in person. but i just consider my self lucky and i should take it while its still available.

this is my very lucky parts car i found. picking it up saterday, i have a good friend in the auto repair industry so we will work together.

As for the parts car, i plan to use what i need, and part out the rest, so stay tuned if you need 1972 parts, including nice straight bumpers, good roundies. etc.

It was so fun while it lasted. and I'm sure the fixing and scavenging will be fun too! my 2002 is now an official project..

(nt)

I crashed my 2002

working on restoration now. insurance thankfully didn't total. I'm buying a parts car asap. needs a front end re-build..

Are they Chromed or painted black like in the pictures above?

I'd love to check them out, and i'll be in spokane for thanksgiving, but I won't have my 02 with me.

Anybody have any wheels that would kinda.. fill up the wheel wells without rubbing. on stock suspension??

Hopefully pretty local?

Sold it!

Thanks so much for your help dude. I got it running and moved on. I have a 72 2002 now, its on the project blog thread. check it out!

Thats my plan hope to get a vintage roof rack too, I would get great use out of it.

and maybe a fog lamp too off the rear bumper.

and yes of course wheels and mirror.

audio in would be nice. sure it sounds great on that little mono speaker

Yours looks very clean! we have practically identical cars.

Love the rims you have on there, where did you pick those up? im a noob at wheel shopping, tips would be nice!

Hey all, as you may recall, I had a 1976 02 that had some fuel issues. It was like a tomato soup red. We'll i sold that to a guy who is taking it in under his wing and hes really taking care of the car. Idk about you guy's but i like to know my old car went to an awesome owner.

Anyway, I sold that because i didn't want an automatic, i didnt want A 1976, because the chrome and the roundies.

so! i got a new car, from an old lady whos kept it garaged for 25 years at work and at home and driven it about 1200 miles a year. It's a beautiful equation that is a beautiful outcome. Here it is, non molested, stock and all there in working order!

Anyway's I'm looking to get black basket weave rims for it but I'm not sure what size i should get if i wanted to fill the wheel well up a little better. on the stock suspension, what size would be best? 185/60/-??

So something that concerns me is this sending unit. You guys keep talking about it like it's got a screen in it, but mine (which looks new) has a floater in it and just a straight shot from the bottom of the tube up until the top were it's a 90* angle. If you shine a light at one side... No screen. It's a very small tunnel that goes inside the sender about as big as the fuel line it self.

That has no pumping mechanism in it does it?

Haha, all signs just seem to be pointing to the pump, so that sounds right.

ill try that.

let me know if you see one around for cheap. on your thread you said you got one for 52 bucks? what kind was that?

thanks buddy! you've been tons of help! i want to drive my car againnn!

btw, what could cause a "brand new" looking pump to die?
