Well to be honest with you, these are new both springs and struts. I have already installed the springs on the front struts along with NEW Tokico OEM type mounts (those are a freebie I guess)since I couldn't install the plate with worn out mounts.

I dont plan on losing a lot of money on these. I payed 460.00 for the struts (1yr ago) plus 190.00 for the springs.

I think a fair price would be $550 or we can work something out.

Yes they do ,

I forgot that on my list, but I'm going to do what my friend did and hook his train horns up to his alarm.

And the Bronco, Taurus, and Civic will get good alarms too, but I'm going to try to and do the train horn/ alarm with the bronco too.

1. Pull motor, fix motor, stick it back in.

2. Put my Z32 Brakes on.

3. Get tires for my wheels.

4. Fix Rusty spot (battery tray).

4. Drive the damn thing. I don't care if I get anything else done, I'm just sick to death of seeing it in the garage all sad and stuff cause it's been sitting for a year.
