I have a original 1929 oil pan. I don't need it and was wondering if there is a market for these? I hate to send to the scrapper
Thanks Mike

Ed H. · 01-02-2017, 09:12 PM

Sell cheap or donate it. Pls dont scrape it.

OK Thats what i thought. I don't want to ever scrap ANY "A" parts

at current scrap rate of 4 cents a pound i think you wont get much. I looked on ebay and found none so you should do well there.

Even truly junk Model A parts can be turned into yard art.

I can usually find a buyer at about $5, but if I can't, there is almost always someone who will take it for free.

You can also post it on the swap section of this forum, for shipping costs only if u so desire.

Here is a link to completed auctions, by my count 9 sold and 6 did not. Prices were all over as were the shipping costs

Even giving it away, shipping costs are high. I have been asked regularly to drag the item around town and get shipping quotes for freebees. I will no longer give things away. This spring I want to reduce my inventory of used parts. The scrap dealer really looks like my best option. I know most of the people on this site will be upset by this, but I am tired of the cheap people who want to pay nothing for parts and have them shipped free. I could point out examples, but that would not be nice.
