I posted a sale in the forums back in December to try to sell my damaged car as a whole, with no takers (understandable). I won't bother linking to the previous post but will spell out that I hit some ice on my way to work in mid December and hit a guard rail pretty much straight on. As a result, the headlights, grill, bumper, and airbags are all shot. The rest of the car was not damaged. The car was in need of a major paint job (no rust on the body), so any exterior items will need paint, but the interior is in good shape. I took parts out this past weekend, but was looking to see if anyone else would need some parts for their Mark VIII. The car has 177,000 miles on it with the original tranny and engine. I have a Diablo chip installed and will be willing to pull that is someone could give me direction on it. I also have a K&N filter as well. The engine burns very little oil and I have never had to add any between changes. I will be willing to sell the engine and/or tranny, but I would require that the person interest pull it since I am not set up to do that. I also have two replacement rear air bags (shocks) that I never installed that I can sell as well.
Let me tell you about what is missing already (my bother has a 98 LSC and took some parts for himself). Obviously the headlights, grill, bumper, and airbags are gone. My brother took the rear ballast for the LED, but I do still have the LED. The radio/amp/etc are already gone as with compressor for the air shocks. I converted the air shocks to standard springs a little over 8 months ago, so those are still in good shape, so anyone looking to convert their car over, I can get you the complete kit for pretty cheap. The passenger side seat control just died. The ac/heat controls have the plastic housing (internal) broken, but it still works fine (broke it when replacing the blend door actuator). The steering column adjustment controls do not work either.
I am sure that I left something out, but would be able to let you know pretty quick on what I have. Any large items I would prefer local delivery/pickup only unless you arrange it otherwise.
If interested, please leave a post or you can email me at: MarkVIII@NeverBeShaken.com
I can set up an ebay auction if you would prefer that, or will sell direct. My account on ebay is rlekberg (as with my user name on this site) and you will be able to see that I am trustworthy.
If you are interested in a particular part, I can post/email a picture(s) of it to let you see the condition. Again all the interior items are in pretty good shape, with the exception of the driver's seat showing wear, basically the leather is tough.
After being asked where I am located, I am in Alton, Illinois 62002.
