* Deck Lid.
* Complete Sheet metal for outer front end.
* Full panel under deck lid.
* Grille.
* Rear Bumper Balance.
For starters, we know NOS early Lark fenders have been selling for $1K/pair. What's the rest of the NOS worth? I see lenses in plastic too. Who knows what else might be there that isn't mentioned? The used panels on it don't look bad. What are the decent-looking used panels worth?
I agree it isn't really worth fixing. I thought it might be a good deal for maybe a grand or $1500 if one was nearby. Admittedly that's a ways from 4 large, but you never know till you try... I hadn't seen the eBay listing with the $4K opener. To me that makes it a non-starterProud NON-CASO
