    That's a tricky question. We're dealing with an item that the price will fluctuate per sale. I paid $168 for that one, but now I have one and the other buyer didn't want to pay more than that so the next one might not sell for that much. Obviously no one is likely to spend $800 on it, but I've seen full sets go for as little as $100 to as much as $300. The price also depends on the condition.

    Mint sets - ready to paint and install = $275-$300

    Complete sets needing minor body work to repair chips, cracks = $150-$175

    While the little bottom pieces that fill in behind the bumper are often included. They are not needed as they are part of every small bumper car. So most already have this part unless you have a big bumper car.

    I figure this price on the 3 main pieces AND the mounting hardware (those hard to find duckbill spacers).

    Those things end up everywhere but on the spoilers it seems. I'm always short on them. You can make a substitute out of metal or PVC tubing, but it is nice to have the real thing.

    I guess I did pretty good on mine then. I paid $150.oo for a severely rusted '73 Grabber, about 2 years ago. It was a straight shift car. I got the rear spoiler, sport mirrors, bucket seats (great condition), steering column, clutch pedal assembly, and a rust "FREE" hood off of the car. On top of all of that, Mr. Cottle delivered it to my house, 1/2 hour away. I still have the hood, steering column, and clutch pedal assembly in my shed.:bananaman

    Yes sir, I snatched that one up, when Ifound out about it. I know that he wanted $250.oo, and I offered him $150.oo. It seems that Mr. Cottle was getting ready to leave for Atlantic City the next day. I guess he was trying to accumilate more gambling money. And then I had the nerve to ask him to tow it to my house for the same amount.:D But, I have already conditioned my mind to pay several hundred, if need be, for a parts car.
