Sorry, but why does everyone call them "euro" bumpers, headlights etc????? They're non-North American, everywhere else in the world got these "euro" things too!!!
South African made cars had "euro" bumpers even...

You make a valid point, and are correct. Since the motherland is in Europe, it just sounds better to refer back to the source of origin than call it Non-North American terrible design ugliness...

Have a need for a good windshield and a fender if its priced right.I visited a yard last week and was just set on getting an ashtray ,the guy says he wants $75.for an O.K. ASHTRAY , butts and all, I said Ill come back but need to get more cash from the bank ,yeah right ,I bet its still sitting on their counter but just with more butts.
Ive had some 13 yrs experience doing this as a hobby of sorts and let me tell you its rough on your free time ,if you like what your doing not so much .You need to treat it like a business and keep reg. hrs and not run around town chasing people , dont ask. I would say if its unbolted with plenty of pictures and is priced fairly you can get the parts sold.Is it worth your time is the otherside. Pictures ,uploading ,taking calls ,visiting with potential buyers(who will gauranteed talk you off your orig price) and then the no shows. Real world is if you are patient and have the time then yes ,youll make your money but look at it with EYES WIDE OPEN going in and you wont be disappointed about parts sitting around and no buyers . pics,pics, pics, $$$$
