Buying used parts, need advice

Yo guys,

 

So i'm resurrecting my two-face Z car this week, a hood and the front right parts of the car. Was curious if anyone had haggling advice on the prices, i'm thinking

 

$20 for the 1/4 panel $35 for the hood

$20 for the light cowl & for the bracket to hold the light in place

and $65 for the entire left door and $25 for the interior door panel for passsenger. . .

 

he wants $1200 for the entire car w/ a rusted frame, so i'm not sure what exactly he's expecting in price, he wants $800 for the motor/tranny combo; so I figure this would be feasable seeing as the "rest of the car" in his eyes is worth $400. . .

 

I just dont have anywhere to put the car.

What kind of car? Was that the ZX on tampa craigslist? I thought his prices were high.

 

Your prices seem a little on the low side. Offer that, but be expected he will want more.

 

 

Yes; His price on the car is high; especially for one w/ a rusted frame. I expect him to want more; but I'm a collector, i haggle people all day. I hope I can stay around the prices i indicated above; low-side or not, he wants to get rid of the car then he should just part this stuff out especially since all his other deals fell through; I mean, despite the low prices I would be doing him a favor ;)

 

lol

 

i'm going to view the car later on today or tomorrow.

Yeah, the guy said he called around and got $500, would sell all to me for $300- I'm not looking to spend that much; his prices are inflated, he said he put $800 into the car and wants to get most of what he can out of it, so I think he's just trying to make some bucks; but he can either junk the car for $100 or sell me some parts for $100-$175 and walk away with still more to part out.
