Scrapper with 5 V70Rs on eBay

Post by foggydogg »

Can't tell if it's a real scrapper, or a hobbyist who got carried away.

Here's the bigger pile, the bumper cover and skirts were just for-instance.

He seems to want good nickel for the product, although I don't have much info to gauge it against.
He's looking for a pair of 302mm caliper brackets for me. I am an optimist by nature, but the days have gone by...

The bumper cover he was showing a couple of days ago was a piece of junk and he wanted $300+ for it? He is asking prices that pro-junkyards are asking and no guarantee. Good luck to him if people are willing to pay for them.

IPD are selling a pair of refurbished caliper brackets for abut $150. Supposedly Volvo refurbished.

FCP have Skandix made brackets for the larger rotors at around &75 each I think:

I have to replace the worn out ones for my 'R'. I got a pair of NAPA refurbished premium calipers and brackets. It was way cheaper for me and I now also have a pair of refurbished calipers in the stash as my current ones are good.

The Saffron R he was cutting up looked pretty complete. I wonder what was so bad about that car that he decided to part out such a rare colo(u)r instead of getting all the money from an Enthusiast - unless it was something he couldn't sell any other way.
