    May go to the swapmeet in Ohio next weekend.

    Was wondering what a fair price would be for the following parts.

    New to Mav parts so any advice would be appreciated.

    Don't want to keep the parts, and don't mind helping people who work on old rides so i will probably charge 1/2 of what is fair.

    Anyways, here is the list;

    5 lug front drums/spindles complete

    4 lug front drums/spindles complete

    5 lug rear drums/backing plates

    4 lug rear drums/backing plates

    6 cylinder front coils

    rear springs

    rear 4 lug axles

    4 4 lug rims with cooper cobras 215's/225's

    4 lug spare with what seems to be an original tire

    Maverick parts are there, but not loads of them, you'll have to search them out.
    Depending on who's going, there will be 2-3 guys that always have Maverick parts.
    Front disc spindles, will go for 175 ish for the pair, the other parts wouldn't be big sellers. If Raymond or Craig are around, they can give you better ideas on prices.

    DRUM brakes won't go for that....maybe $25 to $50 depending on condition.

    Keep the spindles, they can be used for aftermarket, or Cobra brake conversions.

    The 5-lug front drums/spindles are still worthwhile to have, as there are always people looking for those. I wouldn't scrap those.
