I took a day off work to go look at these parts. I wanted a better bumper for my Mach 1 (it is pretty cracked) and a "correct" Ram air hood for the vert. Rear valance too. Front bumper has no cracks. Hood is also in great shape. Critters made it home but no rust thru and very straight. Rear valance has some damage. One fender is pretty messed up while other is pretty good. Other parts I do not need. I paid 600 for the lot.
1. Is that a good deal? I am always worried about not knowing what I am doing.
The best part of it was the seller was a 97 yo B24 pilot from www who went on to FBI and then Air Force special Agent. He then went to Illinois and worked organized crime. I had an absolutely fascinating conversation with him. From Russians shooting at them doing support missions to making the case against Daley's son. I felt honored to meet him
