So I started my search for a passenger door today. Looked in all the usual places . I stumbled across this post on Craigslist. This guy had a handful of Parts listed , many seemed steep for used parts that are mostly in reproduction. What really caught my attention was the listing for a hard top door for $1250 and convertible doors for $450 a pop. Found his same doors on eBay for the highest price by at least double and quadruple in most cases. Figured I’d message him for the sport of it. Asked about his prices and got an earful , clearly I wasn’t the first to same something. He went on and on about how his parts are nicer than anyone else’s and he drives all over the county for top parts and kept talking about rare Shelby and cougar Parts . Even offered a “reward” for these rare and impossible to find parts ( 66 radiator and 85 doors). Both were easy to find online, I didn’t get a reward.... I did find a rust free door at a local junk yard for $40 that I’ll grab in the morning
But I walked away wondering if there is or will be in a future a market for nice parts at what seams like ultra high prices. What are your guys thoughts?
