    If somebody needed those parts.....it would be worth a grand.

    Bucket seats....$300
    Front valence....$100-$150
    Rear valence.....$150-$200
    V-8 motor........$100 to $500 (depends on if it runs)
    V-8 Frame mounts.....$100
    V-8 trans crossmember...............$75
    Could be a floor shift car, all those transmission/shifter parts would be $300
    Floor shift steering column.................$150
    Factory AC parts........$100-$200

    I could go on.....but you get the idea. Lots of HARD to find parts on this GT.

    Very easily get money back parting the car but not something for everyone to do, lots of work if it was closer I would be all over it

    Be wary of any car without a good title. You don't want to have a vehicle with a dubious history sitting in your yard. I would get the VIN from it and check it out with your local DMV before handing any money over.

    The GT looks to be a standard car, which would add value for the pedals. Would be worth looking at.

    Hey all,

    I believe the rusty GT is a floor shift and is suppose to run. I'm parting my second 51' Chevy (for the last couple years). I've always gotten my $$ back, but the only real profit I feel I've seen is getting the parts I need/want for free. Everything else is earned. Big pieces are a real chore and hard to move/ship. Particularly when you are in the boonies like me.

    Chris
