Offers for doner car parts here

[GrannyLinda]

Ron I Hope You Are Keeping Track Of The Money You Are Getting
For Parts.         

[Fierofool]

I would like to offer 75 bucks for the a/c components/brackets.
Ron

Randy, Don and I spent the day stripping parts off the car.  Don removed the orifice tube and found it to be full of compressor parts.  Chunks and shards of teflon and aluminum.  That said that the compressor was of no use.  We went to the rear to work in the engine bay and saw that the AC compressor and the lines were also gone.  Probably the only part of the AC system that can be used is the condenser at the front and the box underneath the dash. 

Lots of parts were removed and Randy said he will be putting up a list of what we have.  Since these parts are already removed for you, please make an offer a little higher than standard Pull-A-Part prices.

Well, my offer for 75 still stands for the remaining components....minus the compressor.  Are the brackets and wiring still there?  If so, mark me down to strip the interior at the same time....might as well, while I'm in there!

The lines underneath are there, the condenser and radiator are there, the dash was broken apart and we removed it.  It's not useable.  The piping and hardware in the front compartment is there.  It would be easiest to just pull the whole chunk and swap out with yours.  We removed the climate control switch and put it in the parts bin and the remainder of the under-dash stuff is still in the car.  Best I could see, a couple of the AC brackets were still on the engine, but the major one isn't.  I have one I will throw into the pile for you.  I think the ductwork on the back of the dash is common to all cars, but I'll also give you a dash that has good ductwork on the back of it.

Great!  Basically, I'm MOST concerned with the air box(suitcase), controller and plumbing. The rest i can fudge.
I was offering my services to strip the interior, but it sounds like you got to it already.

You can still come up and pull stuff out.  There are also the exterior body panels that are all good pieces, except the nose.  Aero package, power windows and mirrors, but I don't believe it has power door locks.  There's still lots that can be done.  Just check with MetalBlue85GT to schedule it. 

[f85gtron]

Ok. I pm'd him, but maybe it didn't get through.

Randilio @ Hotmail is an email I check regularly.

4o4  863 21oo is my cel call or text.

I can make time today May 25 too if there is anyone who wants to come over.

I have some vacation and plans to work around in the coming month but my next Friday off is June 20th, and the Saturdays I am free = part of may 31 and June 28th. I have a lot going on in June.

Also any evening after 6pm on the weekdays I can host to pick parts up or take some disassembly.

I will work the parts list and take pictures if needed.

[f85gtron]

Put me down for May 31st!

I got your voice mail -I will get the times up here too. I don't recall when my son leaves for the summer. we just need to drop him off at the airport then I am free.

[f85gtron]

10-4. Standing by....

[MetalBlue85GT]

His flight leaves at 230 so I wont be back at the house until 330 - 4pm.

I haven't been getting to your calls yet, work has me spread really thin.

I think I am going to have to call it for Saturday. that airport trip breaks the day right in half sorry for the late update.


If early in the AM works I have from 0700 until about 11am then I have to get ready and take my son to the airport. let me know.

[f85gtron]

Spend time with your son. I'll get the parts some other time.
Ron

I will submit a bid on the headlight motors at $18 each.
Coolant rails--I couldn't find anything similar in the price list, so I'll bid $20 each.
Main instrument cluster--$30.

Ron, I didn't get the coolant rails.  I got the instrument cluster, but when I removed the part I needed (the temp and fuel gauge) the rubber light shield crumbled off due to a previous person having put the unit back incorrectly.  I tested the temp and fuel cluster and they seem to work correctly.  I put them back into the main pod and will return it.

I think I'm going to have to withdraw my offer for the parts car engine. Randy has not answered PM's or emails to arrange a time for me to go get it, and frankly, I'm tired of postponing weekend plans in the hope that this might be the available weekend. So if anyone wants it, make an offer. But lots of luck actually getting it.
