    Stuff.

    Why not, I'm always dogging for cheap stuff. For both boxes and whales.

    I've mentioned the Timken front wheel bearing assemblies for 03-05 whales, at least MGM/CV, on Amazon for less than $57 delivered!

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...F8&me=&seller=

    How about a 'Mojave Tan' leather interior set for whales, for $195? The seller told me it was Katzkin. I have bought one but haven't taken delivery yet. He might have other colors:

    This 95 MGM with 53k miles in Columbus Ohio might go cheap:

    How about a box TC uber-limo?

    This 79 TC in Cleveland might go for scrap value:

    And there's a 98-2011 Motorcraft MGM/CV hood latch on ebay right now for $11 delivered - OBO! Ignore his "2007" - it fit my 03 just fine:

    More to come as events warrent.

      That 79 has seen better days. I find it seriously hard to believe that is was running and driving only two weeks prior to the incident. It looks like it hasn't moved for two years.

      Its a shame about the barges. It seems all the ones in decent shape are some hideous 70s tacky colors and all the decent colored ones are beat to shit.

          This guy sells plug boots/springs for 4.6s for less than $21 delivered for a set of 8. Sounds like they might be made in USA.

              It looks like it might actually sell for more than scrap. Wow.

              We've complained about the cheap plastic wire loom crap out there, I noticed that you can still buy the old fashioned asphaltic loom on ebay. I didn't look hard but here's one:

                The 79 sold for $760?!

                I received the interior set from the above seller, it is katzkin, complete, new and appears to have no defects. Win!

                Hows about a suicide door 83 MGM:

                      The seller of the wagon is just exercising his first ammendment rights. It's a $1500 car at most.

                        Perusing Rock's current closeouts, I see you can do a front brake job including ceramic pads, new rubber pigtails, antisqueek kit, and caliper bushings for less than $35 delivered (to me anyway). 1 lucky person gets a new PCV valve for $.64 extra, and/or if you toss on a master cylinder it still comes to less than $42.

                        List:

                        FRICTION MASTER Part # CMX199 Genuine Ceramic [Wholesaler Closeout - Private Label Pkg. - 30 Day Warranty]
                        Front Ceramic Pads PROFESSIONAL GRADE $11.04 $11.04

                        BENDIX Part # 77239 [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] (Only 9 Remaining)
                        Front Right $4.30 $4.30

                        BENDIX Part # 77238 [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty]
                        Front Left $4.30 $4.30

                        Brake/Wheel Hub : Master CylinderRelated Parts
                        RAYBESTOS Part # RMC39467 [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] (Only 1 Remaining)
                        Master Cylinder (Remanufactured); 1" - w/Power Brakes $6.56 $6.56

                        AIRTEX / WELLS Part # 6P1112 {#D8ZZ6A666B, D9TZ6A666A, D9ZZ6A666A, PCV94} [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] (Only 1 Remaining)
                        Valve Only $0.64 $0.64

                        .-.-.-.-.-.

                        Heck if you just get the pads and shims it's less than $24, for ceramic. I wish I had the cash, I'd buy a set.

                        Also, I mentioned in the what you be working on thread that there's an ebay seller with these rotors for 98-02 panthers, if you verify they are actually "Centric Premium Preferred' rotors they're a great deal: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Front-Br...f94c97&vxp=mtr

                        And moog problem solver lower ball joints for 95-02s for $20 delivered: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Moog-K8685-L...9ce08d&vxp=mtr

                            Whoa, found a coupla good deals. For starters, for panther front end parts look for morexUNDERSCOREautomotiveUNDERSCOREproducts on Epay. For example, they had Moog problem solver lower ball joints for my 03 at $28.XX/ea, already a good price. I offered $20 delivered and they took it. Similar on aero and box parts from what I can see, all Moog problem solvers! I asked them about a moog part they didn't have listed, I'll post what they say.

                            Second, 03 (and probably civvie) specific, I bought a NOS Ford PCM for the 03 from this guy: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190674368459...84.m1423.l2649 for $25 delivered.
