1982 Trailfire LX some parts

[guitardude081]

I hit the point of no return on my Trailfire LX. I robbed too many parts off of it to put on my 1980....so it became a parts machine. I've got a few things taken off and cleaned up as of right now. This sled was stored inside since new so it was actually a nice survivor with the exception of bad crank seals and worn rings.

-NIIIIICE chassis with decent decals. Bulkhead is perfect, has fuel shutoff bracket. Comes with Jackshaft and stuck secondary as well as forward console post. TPR panels are OK but both have a minor cracks underneath. This will clean up nice and would be great for someone who has a beat up bulkhead or needs a clean chassis to start with. $50 OBO/Trade

-Seat. Older reupholstery and wood job. Would shine up nice with some mink oil. Foam is supple....almost too supple. The passenger strap mark is very defined but, it would look good on an original rider. The wood has not been drilled for well-nuts and is not too bad as far as rot goes. I have it drying out right now and it looks like it will be OK. I usually opt for sport seats so I don't have a use for this. $50

-Fuel Tank with cap/dipstick. Needs new bezel but otherwise, dipstick gauge still works. I forgot to check if it was the big neck or small neck. This has the latching glovebox. This should shine up to be nice again. I will probably rub it down this weekend and wash it out. $25

-Handlebars. With catridge handwarmers and original poly insulated wires that are still good. Tested with a battery and they still put out heat. $25

-Decent hood. No cracks but, paint is flaked in a few spots. This is bare with no grilles. Graphics are above average. $75

I've got more but, I want to clean everything up and inspect it first. I will rebuild the engine within the next few weeks and list that too. I robbed the oil injection for my sled but, parts are easy to source.

I also have the original hood from my 1980 Liquifire restoration from a few years back. I was planning on using it on a restoration but, it's just been collecting dust for the past 6 years. The paint is an 8 out of 10. The graphics are faded to almost white. Not a crack to be found. The long vent in front of the winshield has the delete plate riveted in as per the JD PIP. The clutch vent by the grille has not been deleted like some of these were. $75

Pics of parts available upon request.

Interested in the hood if it is still available. I'm also looking for a passenger backrest if you have one or know where I could get one that would be great.

badbrad83,
I have the metal pieces to the backrest but not the pad. You can find new pads on ebay from time to time. If you are interested I can check the condition and e-mail you some pics. My e-mail address is terreb@umich.edu
