    Free Box Stuff and other crap in Central Virginia

    Hello.

    I used to frequent GMN and annoy people with my questions and pessimistic musings. I had to sell my 90 Grand Marquis back in 2016, but I kept a lot of parts and stuff, planning to buy another box panther down the road. Although I still plan to one day return to the wonderful world of box panthers, I currently need to unload some of the shit I have horded. It would be nice to sell stuff, but I just don't have the time or effort to deal with taking it all out, taking pictures, posting it, putting it away, digging it out again, shipping it... it's a hassle. So, in an attempt to minimize the hassle, I'm giving shit away to anyone willing to drive out to my apartment in Central Virginia and pick it up. I haven't taken a detailed list of exactly what I have because it's all buried beneath other boxes and my back hurts, but once I can confirm someone wants to get it, I'll dig it all out. The whole idea is that one or two people come and pick up as much stuff as possible, keep it, sell it, whatever. Then I throw the rest away.

    I'm in strict quarantine, so although I'd love to shoot the shit over a cup of coffee with any one of yall, this will have to be contactless. I'll set it out, you grab what you can, whatever's left goes to the trash.


    90 Grand Marquis Stuff
    Bunch of manuals and shit
    Rear taillights for 90 gmq, smoky tint, some of the screw holes a little stripped when I removed them from the junkyard, no screws
    Brand new brake calipers
    Set of lincoln logs, likely missing some bolts
    some random gasket sets
    windshield wiper motor
    A couple grand marquis logo center caps for aluminum wheels (not the turbine ones)
    wheel bearings
    Oxygen sensor
    Random solenoids and doo dads and bits and pieces, hell I don't know
    Some oil and antifreeze

    Other Crap
    Cheap ass red harbor freight car jack, jack stands, plastic wheel chocks
    some random harbor freight power tools-- angle grinder, power drill, ya know, cheap shit.
    Some red shop rags
    Engine enamel spray paint, black and/or beige
    Car wax
    Random sprays and products and shit

    Thanks for the kind offering, but unfortunately I don't have a need for more random cheap-ass, hoarded up shit!!!

    I've already got a shit-pile of crappy shit that I don't need, but hopefully you'll find someone shit-shy on here, or even better shitless who can come and get a shitload of that stuff and load it in their shitbox while keeping their social distance so their ass doesn't get the COVID shit! Looks like a good bunch of shit for somebody!

        I would gladly pick up all your stuff, because I am a part hoader, but google tells me that the only possible option is to fly for some 17 hours and that's bad, because I freakingly need an owner's manual for my MGM.

          Pay him to fax you a copy?! Oh, wait, you have to drive to his apartment, that's right.

              Well, does anyone still use faxes at all?
              Also, scanning something like that would be a pain in the arse, and I am too shy and gentleman-ish to ask for something like that, I guess

                  Hmm, some of them can be shipped for only ~20 dollars to my place - might be a nice one :O

                  Thank you! And apologies to @BufalloRider for trashing his thread

                    Oh, I wouldn't worry myself bugshit about it, I'm sure BufalloRider won't catch too much shit giving away his mountain of crappy shit. Someone local will come take away a shit-pile of that good shit, just as sure as shit!

                      So does Quincy respond to every offer he's not interested in or am I just lucky? I can't tell if he's trying to make a funny about my foul language or if he's just being a smartass. Either way, let's not get carried away.

                      Yeah, sure, there's plenty of "crappy shit" in the lot, but I hate being wasteful when there are people who want some of the stuff I've got. I've seen plenty of folks trip over themselves to get their hands on lincoln logs. In fact, I might be willing to ship them cause I'd hate to see them scrapped or trashed.

                        No, yes, yes and yes!!! Just having fun with you, Sir!!! Enjoyed your extensive references to "shit" and "crap", and I'm certain I'm not alone in this. Have a nice day, and good luck unloading your wares!!!!!

                            I would be interested in the Lincoln Logs. Don't think I can make the drive from California to pick them up, but if you'll entertain shipping I'll of course pay.

                              Interested in a driver's side tail light if you have one... Whatever you have, as long as it is intact, I could probably make work. Mine has a little hole in the side from the last owner having it parked downtown Chicago.
