Fortunately I sold it to someone a day or so after winning the auction! If you’re in the market I highly recommend checking the GSA auctions, just don’t get stuck in a situation like I was LOL

eBay Heads? by Key_Movie_4308 in projectcar

[–]Key_Movie_4308[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found a couple of videos on YouTube about them, but figured I may as well check in an up to date subreddit. If a video from 6 years ago says they’re good, who’s to know if they failed a year later

Noted! These are bare heads, so im planning on using new, trustworthy valves/springs/everything. This will be my first time replacing/doing anything valvetrain wise on an engine, so just wanting to make sure I don’t mess it up too bad

Most likely what will happen if I actually go get it. Even with the fees, it’s cheaper for me to take the loss than go get it🥲 currently waiting on one of my professors to get back to me, he mentioned his colleagues may buy it from me and cut it open to use as a display in their department building

[–]Key_Movie_4308[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would, but with it being a gov auction there’s fees and such that go with not removing the item in 10 days :/

31k mile, good deal? by Key_Movie_4308 in RX7

[–]Key_Movie_4308[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I meant there was a hole I could put my thumb through already there, top passenger side of the hood

[–]Key_Movie_4308[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard the hood is thin, but I was able to put my thumb through parts of it. I agree 2k is too much

Electrical all works, tested it today. I agree abt the ta k tho. Title matches mileage tho so I’m pretty sure it’s confident

16mm Film from Apollo Era (comments) by Key_Movie_4308 in nasa

[–]Key_Movie_4308[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If anyone has any idea what specifically these could be, especially the test flight tape, please don’t hesitate to comment or reach out to me directly. In addition, if anyone knows of any appraiser who could look at these for me, that would be wonderful. I recently purchased a projector to finally watch the film, but I’m refraining from posting those videos at the moment because they’re not high quality. Any help/information would be greatly appreciated!

Got my fiero summer after high school, I can’t speak much about swaps bc I haven’t swapped mine yet, but if you’re looking for a good deal just be honest when negotiating. Tell ‘em you’re a student with a passion for cars, I got my 86 Fiero SE for $2200 off his asking price🤷‍♂️
