Need an opinion on what to do with a 12A
Hey guys, I was gonna rebuild my 12A and I got all the needed parts minus the seals etc. But as you know Im gonna go a different route. I want to sell all these parts. Whats the best way, sell them individually or find someone that needs all of it?
Everything is in near perfect condition and all parts are from an 85...
2 good rotor housings
all the cast iron housings (good but need to be lapped)
1 good front rotor
3 good rear ones
2 dizzys (1 complete, 1 missing 1 igniter)
2 85 carbs
2 E shafts
2 flywheels (1 83, and 1 85)
85 intake manifold w/ AAV and other block off plates
79-85 RB Power Pulses Bretaher w/ K & N filter
All parts have been cleaned fully
So whats the best way to sell them, and how much should i ask?

It should be painfully obvious by now that the members here skate on the "pay-less" side, so I wouldn't be surprised if some people suggest letting it all go to one person for $300. That said, will you take $250?

Id do the whole 12A core for $300
Thjat would be 2 near perfect rotor housings, all 3 cast pieces, e shaft and 2 good rotors for $300
By the way if you want something free I have a tranny outta an 80, its free
I thought id give every1 here first pick, its gonna go to Ebay otherwise

The power pulses breather. The paint on top has peeled, needs a repainting. Of course I never cared for the white anyways... Make an offer, I was thinking of $20 you pay shipping...The breather was $44 and the K & N was $41, but im open to suggestions.
Dont really know what a Dist. is worth ? Make an offer...

By the way if anyone wants to swap some stuff for all the parts to put a 13b in a 12A chassis. Im open for that too.
Need front cover (unless my 12A will work) , oil pick up, oil pan, and front mount

Yeah, but someone cut the flange off of it. Just the tube is left. It would be good for someone running an aftermarket turbo, so they could put AN fittings or whatever they wanted on it. I bought my TII to put ist drivetrain in my FB, but the TII turned out to be a semi nice car. Now I don't need the cover and oil pan. I'm gonna keep the FB non turbo and autox it.

I bought them off parts trader in nov. and never used them I paid $212 shipping and all. What would you pay?

You need to find shipping from 42303 area code...
Everything is probally close to 300 lbs, so it would have to go freight, but your pretty close to me, so would be too awful bad. Where in NC are ya?

I could I got a bag of old stuff, from 2 or 3 motors. But all of its wore out... theres a good 1mm or so, missing off some of them...
Kinda depends on if this guys wants the stuff or not, dunno if he does? I was gonna sell everything as a package deal.. So dunno, have to wait and see.
