The simple answer to why stock h-pipes and intake plaques seem to be worth something now is that they’re actually rare now. Definitely can’t get any Fox-specific parts at your local Ford dealer anymore.

Walks into my garage.....hmm....

The other one is rarer (Aussie Falcon engine plate) but apparently the 5.0 HO plates are the big $$ now

Dude I suck at it. Something will not sell the first time, and then I'll put it up a second time, and then someone will low ball me, and I'm like screw it, take the money, I'm not paying to post it again.

In the vein of this thread, I'm buying this stuff for $600 tomorrow:

1990 Black Dash
New in box Ford Racing 3.73 gears
Vortech Max Flow 73mm Mass Air Meter
FMS 24lbs injectors
GT40 Explorer upper and lower intake with gaskets (comes with the manifold plate we've been discussing)
"Complete" 5 lug disk brake conversion including:
- SN95 94-95 Mustang GT spindles with hub
- PBR Twin Piston front Calipers
- rear brake calipers with brackets rotors, hoses, and pads
- Ford Racing M-2810-A e-brake cable kit
- 3:2 port Master Cylinder Brake Line Adapter

I just wanted the black dash but I made an offer on the whole lot and he accepted.

You can easily make your 600 back with the extras.

For some strange reason, I have a feeling you'd have preferred 4:10s.

Good thinking. I've had 4.10s in 2 setups, thus far.

Recently I bought a Brand new-still sealed in box-Pioneer Super Tuner AM/FM cassette deck . Circa 1988-ish lol. No idea why I bought it,no intention to ever use it. But it will look nice in my parts cabinet in the garage

Somebody with a stock early fox or other shaft style mounting spot would love to buy that and help clear a spot in your garage. Too bad I just bought a Custom Auto Sound Radio.

They are nice radios, but I feel ripped off after seeing what Crutchfield sells a flat face Sony for with all the gadget features. But it was better than hacking up the dash, trying to fit it in a glovebox or putting it under a seat.

Sooo.. All the talk of buying stuff not needed. eBay sales and freeing up garage space-got me thinking,which led to me checking,and then listing my vintage radios on eBay. . If they do well,it may be time to start clearing out the parts cabinets to make room for all New stuff I don’t need

Someone should buy this:

Seems like a good deal if it's something you already want. Less time than waiting for yours to be ported and no core charge.
