Free front clip
Hey guys, I've worked myself into a corner, so to speak.
I have the old front clip off the donor truck I bought for my project. It's been sitting for the last couple of years. I was going to list it and sell it on Craigslist but procrastination took over and I never got around to it.
I'm scheduled to leave Friday morning for Boston and I'm going to be there until after Christmas.
I would really like this to be gone before I leave. If it doesn't go, I'm going to call my scrap guy to pick it up.
I would rather give it to one of you guys for free than see it go for scrap.
If you want it and can pick it up before Friday, you're welcome to it.
Send me a PM.
What you'll get is the front clip. That includes both fenders, inner splash pans, radiator support, hood hinges, hood, front chrome bumper, grille shell (no inserts), right and left doors, rear step bumper with brackets. A mandrel bent dual exhaust system for an FE also goes.
I would class it as fair to good condition, it's got some rust and surface rust but its not all beat up.
If this violates any FTE guidelines, sorry but I'm out of time
.
EDIT: Oh yeah, location would help. I'm in central Florida, just off I-4. about 6 miles south of Disney.

.Let me know.
GM4WALLS, I'll let you know if it doesn't go to earthquake's dad.
I just really hate to throw stuff like this away. It's not perfect but all the parts are very usable. It would be a shame to scrap the stuff

That's funny because I'm not actually "in town" either. I'm just south of county line road, well north of the actual city limits.

damn, I'm not far from you either. I could also be there Thursday.
if GM4WALLS winds up with dibs, maybe he would like to "donate" a couple of those parts to me?
I could use the bumpers and exhaust, and the hood

Me too, I just really didn't want to scrap something that is still very usable. Glad the parts are going to a good home.

$.02 on bad **** sawzall blades. DIABLO blades better than Dewalt/Craftsman/Milwaukee/LENOX lazer/Bosch/Black and Decker
I have burned and flex broken thru them all cutting Ford truck body patch panels in the JY.
6" Steel Demon Bi-Metal Recip Blade for Metal Demolition. Thicker and tougher and less flex ability.

Glad you made it home okay. Hope nothing blew out of the truck on the way home
.Right after you left I realized I suck as a host, I didn't even offer you a beverage (per Sheldon Cooper
), nor did I get to show off my collection of NOS parts. I gotta get better at hosting
