1980 LF - Parting Out (List Updated Feb 19th)

Post by 427cobra »

I have a 1980 LF I am parting out. Its pretty much a complete sled. It has some tunnel damage so I decided to part it out. Its a shame...because it actually came with an IA title!!

Let me know what you need and Ill see if I can help you out!

Primary clutch is sold

I'd be interested in the engine, and perhaps the entire skidframe. Does it run?

Sprailfire...
Brake and thottle blocks appeared to be solid...but did have a crack around the set screw. Let me know if there is any interest.
$10/ea Ill include switches and levers (Ill also take a closer look at them)

Airborne...
Engine is locked up...have not torn it apart to investigate. I havent removed the suspension yet. But it appears to be complete.

Eric I'm talking about the wheels and mounts on the skid rails at the front. Hope that clears it up. Also what gears does it have in it may be interested in the gears, chain and idler.
