Straight to flea bay? Didn’t go to Stangnet classified first?I’ve been on a cleaning spree after “finishing” my car. Threw lots of junk out and threw a ton on eBay.
Feels good to make space and put some $$$ in my pocket
I 5 lugged every fox....that I own anyway.My goal is to 5-lug swap every fox.
(No i will not pay for it)
Don't throw stock stuff away... Could always eBay it if you ever plan on reusing it but the older pre 87 stuff doesn't get listed nearly as much, and with the amount of people trying to flip fox bodies these days if its priced decent they probably won't last long.I have to keep reminding my self that I am keeping this stuff in case there are some fit problems with the new stuff and I have the old stuff to measure why...
Who is going to want some old worn 83 rotor/hub assemblies?? Or the old worn out single piston calipers off the same car?Don't throw stock stuff away...

There's all.ways soemone... Hell I hang on to 4cyl junk just so I can keep a rotted parts car a roller after stripping it. Moving a shell is a pita lolWho is going to want some old worn 83 rotor/hub assemblies?? Or the old worn out single piston calipers off the same car?

I had a bad experience with listing " FREE" items in the past... I had some old worn out leather furniture and an exercise bike....FREE to a good home....LOLI bet if you listed it for free someone would take it.
Fox body parts hoarding is a thing….
NEVER meet anyone without an equalizer.....I have come to almost enjoy listing stuff on FB marketplace. I'm like the soup-nazi on Seinfeld. "No soup for you!"
- only drive to a seller, never to a buyer.
- Unless it's infeasible to move whatever you're selling, meet at the truck stop outside of my neighborhood.
- reject anyone, buyer or seller, who gives a hint of dishonesty... I just hate dishonest people or swindlers & don't want to benefit them in any way
- Only consider delivery after they have actually transferred a non-refundable delivery fee via paypal or venmo, and that's only happened once, because my time is valuable to me and they're going to pay even more than it's worth to me for it. That usually just shuts down the requests for delivery.
- always assume you're getting only what you can see with your own beady eyes & if anything gives you the wrong vibe, bail... I've gotten ripped off on a couple of small buys, but never anything too expensive
- I will only hold something if someone is currently in transit, and only then until the agreed upon time. 1 minute after the agreed upon time, the other guy that's already here with cash gets the sale. I might give them some slack if they're communicating well. None of this, 'can you hold it to the weekend' crap. It's like, 'yeah, unless someone else shows up with the money first'
There's probably some other basic rules of thumb, but the primary one is that if, in your transactions, you generally give any room for someone to screw you, then someone is definitely going to, eventually.

Put it outside with a sign and price it will be gone by morning...I had a bad experience with listing " FREE" items in the past... I had some old worn out leather furniture and an exercise bike....FREE to a good home....LOL
You would not have believed the moron women who showed up with tiny cars to load up a sofa and love seat... Then they asked if I would deliver it.... Many people called or text back that they would take it if I would deliver it....
Alot were unhappy that it wasn't perfect.... FREE YOU DUMB ASSES.....
NEVER again I said.... In the trash....
Heck I don't take stuff to Goodwill ( or any of the other ones) I am not going to clothe the ILLEGALS who are lined up there every morning.....
Lol when there going for more then they Used to cost new its worth listing them... Ks reproduction was out of nj, think they folded up though.Some of my items are obscure. They just sell way better on Ebay vs classified. Some of these things sit for 4-5 months and then get bought and then I have to remember where i put it. On the classifieds, if it doesnt sell within a week it never will and then the posting gets lost.
I probably should have listed these on the classifieds though...
87-93 Ford Mustang Smoked Headlight Set, Non-amber Corners. KSR Brand | eBay
Used headlight. Run for a year or two. Car was garage kept and covered and seldom driven, so these headlights didn’t see much driving action. All mounting studs perfect. These do not have Amber reflectors in the corner lights.www.ebay.com

I set my fathers older set of golf clubs on the edge of the sidewalk... Some A hole took the clubs but left the bag and the bag cart..... So I still had to deal with garbage.....Put it outside with a sign and price it will be gone by morning...
Probably took them for the scrap metal.I set my fathers older set of golf clubs on the edge of the sidewalk... Some A hole took the clubs but left the bag and the bag cart..... So I still had to deal with garbage.....
No, they took them to golf, I watched the pricks from a window..... The woods were real woods......Probably took them for the scrap metal.
We have people come around all the time scavenging our garbage for metal.
I keep my metal to myself for just this reason…… not crazy about strangers roaming through the neighborhood all the time!
I make a trip to the yard every once in a while and and throw the cash in my “play” envelope.
thanks for the offer, but no, I reused the original with new bushings and a new ball joint pressed in.....Did U need the lower controll arm (post #4)?
I work ina shop the guy throws out alotta lca's
just to get um with the new ball joint (rather than
press out the ol in the new).
