I have some poor pics of a Diplomat Dash pad and two front headlight grill panels (is that what they are called?). If the pad has no rips (I'm pretty sure it's usable) and the 2 caps are worth using what would each be worth high / low / on average etc? I plan to place an ad and am looking for help as I have no idea on prices for these things.

Here are some pics .. I am trying to clear out the garage they are in so am running like a chicken with my head cut off so I apologize for bad pics. Base prices on good usable condition please.

I've mentioned before the parts are a good haul from me so sorry again for bad pics I'm always busy when there .. but will bring them to my house for better pics when / if anyone is interested

The metal part of the dash is rusty as shown

I also have some smalls for Dippy Cop Cars

I assume it's not worth much so please just be honest and fire away. The basket is here at the house but the heater ctrl isn't .. I don't think.

The light assembly's are good but the square one may not be a Diplomat item ??

The aluminum carpet finish panel may be ??

The header panels look to be in better shape than the one on my car. If you can find local people who need em, there's your best bet. Otherwise, it'd be a bear to ship.

If I still lived in Illinois, I'd offer to help you go through it..

Thanks brothergood. What should I be asking for them?

I'm sure i can ship through fastenal if the buyer has a fastenal store near them, for somewhere in the neighborhood of $100-150 for both of them together.

Appox how much would one weigh?

Weight on each... probably fifteen to twenty pounds.

As far as asking price if the fiberglass is in good shape and all the trim work is nice (no breaks, no cracks) $200-$250 is a fair price.

Thanks Ramenth! For one or both?

Anyone have any ideas on the dash pad and dome light?

Maybe $125 on dash pad and metal and $20-25 on the dome light?

Maybe $30 on the HVAC controls and $5-10 on the aluminum carpet trim piece (I assume that's what it's for ??) ?

Or is that too much?

I'd just be happy to move for going prices and be fair to both parties. I appreciate any and all help as I really don't have any idea unfortunately

That's each.

The rest of your prices seem reasonable.

Be prepared to move on prices if you have too, though. Us F/M&J guys are even more notorious cheapskates than the A-body guys.

Nah, I take that back. If an F-body guy finds a perfect grille for a the right price he'll buy it. The A-body guys will still whine about it. lol

Thanks and that's pretty funny Ramenth. I actually have several parts for a 69 Dart parts and have only heard crickets when I've put up ads for what I thought were very reasonable prices. Grill and bezels, doors, hood, decklid, bumpers, tail light . not much interest. You'd think these parts where just were laying around in ditches everywhere

There's a link to Rad part numbers in the thread. Maybe you could tell me the one you are looking for, for your application and I could help.

Near the end of the thread I posted individual pics and part numbers of each.

the really small one is in that lot.
