Hi Folks,
I am brand new to this list. I have been "listening in" for a few days
now and have been very impressed with the amount of knowledge and
sharing. I have a '68 Chevelle-based street rod and am very interested
in all of the discussions, but particularly those focusing on the
mechanical aspects. My car is a '32 Ford PU street rod with a '68
Chevelle frame/chassis/running gear.
My primary motivation in posting this message is I have a set of hardly
used Bilstein shocks for sale. In view of their near newness I would
like to get 70% of what I paid, which is likely less than the current
price.
The fronts are for a '64-'72 A-body, and the rear are listed for a
'64-'88 A-body.
I bought these shocks from Hotchkis about 2 years ago. My car does not
get driven much at all; it mostly gets worked on. It never sees
weather.
The rears were used for only maybe 50 miles as they were evidenced to
be too stiff for my application. With the PU configuration there is
not much sprung weight on the rear. Hotchkis' price was $54.95 each,
and I would like to get $38 each.
The fronts have been used for about 1000 miles and I am selling them
because I just purchased a QA1 coilover conversion kit. I was happy
with the Bilsteins on the front but wanted the height setting aspect of
the coilovers. Hotchkis' price for the fronts was $84.95 each, and I
would like to get $60 each.
The total for all four is $196. I would be willing to sell them all as
a set for an approximate additional 5% off of that price, which is
$186. This represents a total savings of $93.80 of my original price
of $279.80, or 33.5%.
Please email me off list if you are interested. I am at:

I also hope you will let me participate, even though my vehicle is not
truly a Chevelle. I would gladly share any experience/knowledge I have
accumulated, and I would surely benefit from this group's.
Thanks,
Fred
