8BA stuff
I have some intake manifolds and bell housings. I don't know the years of the intakes.
Should I try to find someone who wants these things? Or just scrap them? I have more junk than room. Thanks |

Re: 8BA stuff
Posting pictures, and a location other than YEP would sure be helpful.

Re: 8BA stuff
Offer them up for just the cost of shipping on as many places you can think of. Someone may want them.

Re: 8BA stuff
The intakes with broken generator guides are worth about a quarter at the scrappers'. The cost of shipping cast iron ones is about $30 - $40, somewhat limits their appeal.

Re: 8BA stuff
I got 2 bucks for a stock intake manifold last year at a Model A swap meet. Going again tomorrow with the last of my 8ba stuff. Hopefully I'll at least make the 30 bucks space rent but I'm not holding my breath. Stock 8ba heads, distributors, generator mounts, and other misc parts aren't much in demand but I hate to have to scrap them. And of course if I do sell something or scrap it I'll need it right after I do.

Re: 8BA stuff
I took a bunch of "ordinary" parts (8RT heads, 8BA Iron manifolds, etc) to the scrap yard a couple of years ago. I unloaded them, and as I was leaving, I noticed that one of the employees was in the process of moving them from the general iron scrap pile to his own little stash by the office.
Obviously, somebody wants this stuff. |

“Obviously, somebody wants this stuff.” I just keep piling it up on the floor of the barn. My kids can deal with it when I go tits up.....Mark
