There is a nice '96 Classic at my local salvage yard. Engine is said to be good, less than 90k on the odometer with a bad transmission. I have pulled a coupl of small things from this Aurora. All body panels still remain, right front quarter panel is dented and some other cosmetic issues. I wanted to just purchase the rear bumper cover. However he wants $100.00 for the bumper cover, i know not bad. I figure if I made him an offer on the entire car I'd be better off. What do you think a good low ball offer would be for this Aurora?

sall, i'm not sure on the whole car price, but my body guy said he couldn't touch the $100 for the bumper cover. too rare around here to get a good price and the parts guys know it too--grrr.

Exactly, this is the only Classic Aurora worth getting parts from around here. There is actually two but last time I went to see the second one it was horrible. I would have needed to take a machete and weed eater with me to get to the vehicle. Not mention a snake bite kit  haha. Not having many options for parts cars is why im interested in what I should offer for the entire vehicle so I can be confident in knowing if I need something I most likely have it. |

They probably won't sell it, most salvage yards won't. I have paid $300-900 for parts Auroras. Usually around $500.

Well, I do know that he'd sell it but I never was in a position to make the purchase. He told me I am the only person that gets parts from it everytime I go there. He also said that it's time in the yard is almost up or could be at anytime. I guess it would help too that I sort of know the guy and my mother used to watch his kids back in the day. I will try to lowball him for $300 bucks or give him this gmc safari thats the war wagon haha |
