    The disk brakes on the black 2 door is a good score for someone that needs/wants disks up front.. get the spindles and everything.

    They sure do things differently here. They stack the tireless cars on welded rims. Longest I have seen a car sit was a week before the crusher ate it.
    Gotta love Pull and Save. :rolleyes: They even pre strip all the cars of anything useful and valuable before putting out on the lot. Sweet of them huh?
    Sale at retail all the things they strip through SPALDINGS their other company. lol

    I still not seeing a grabber in those photos.. so not sure what everyone is talking about.:rofl:

    You guys should some to Phoenix. Ive seen 6 Mav/comets in the junkyards in the last couple weeks, 4 at one yard. Even saw a set of LDO buckets in one but the tracks were gone.

    "I SOOO want those skinny bumpers. "

    The parts for the small bumper conversion is an easy $400.00 sale.
    The front disks and prop valve is easy $250.00 sale.

    I would jump on those today.

    Both cars have bench seats and neither was a grabber , the one car had a spoiler but it looks like it's off some other car.

    I'll check it out

    both are i6

    I can buy both of them but not sure if I can get my moneys worth from them.

    If he can not help you. I have the parts you need. The fender and hood would be expensive to ship. The bumper and grill not too bad. I have Grabber & non Grabber grills. For shipping, do you have a Greyhound Bus station near you? PM me if interested.

    The comet DOES have a grille and good fenders and bumpers.

    The general Idea that I get from this thread is that the bumpers , disc brakes , hoods , trunks are worth alot.
