I posted some various things online and on craigslist lately and marked everything "OBO". I've not had a bite on anything, not so much as a tire kicker. I've got hundreds of dollars in parts and stuff that seem like I couldn't give them away. Is this the norm right now?

Did you post that stuff here at all? I'd take a look.
FWIW, my TA is costing me a lot of $$ this year for some reason, and my Honda wagon too. My wife's car blew up so we bought a new Honda Fit this summer. I'd like to have put that money into real go-fast parts, but that's how it falls. My next fun car is gonna be a little thing, like a 1st gen MR2. |

QUOTE (SuperMacGuy @ Aug 4 2010, 12:53 PM)  Did you post that stuff here at all? I'd take a look. I didn't post the car yet or the main parts, but I have a few things in the classifieds (ATL surge tank for a fuel cell, Spoolgun for a mig welder, I forget what else, and I have some LCA's to get out of the parts pile, etc). I would want to know that I could sell all the parts in a reasonable time frame if I started to strip it. I don't want to deal with having to buy the stuff back again and paying retail. I'd just lose a bunch of money and finish the car anyway. So I haven't posted the full list of stuff for parting it out. |
