I offered to buy the shotgun but he wouldn't part with just one. Or at least he had it for sale back in January. Last edited by Jimmy W; 03/21/24 06:10 PM.

It brought a mere 1/3 of a million. I think that is a bit different than a parts gun. I’ve never actually bought a parts gun. Parts cars were a different thing, I bought a few of those when I actually needed parts off them to finish a project I was working on. I think those days are over, I see people restoring cars I wouldn’t even have considered good parts cars. Best, Ted
