RE: [Chevelle-List] master cylinder mania

2002-10-27 Thread John Nasta
I really don't know. I am offering them on behalf of a friend who owns an
auto parts store and he said that's what they sell for. In fact, he said
that the wholesale cost on them was $115 each. I figured they might be good
for somebody who is running a hot cam and wants manual brakes because they
don't need vacuum to operate. The part #'s are there so feel free to check
the prices elsewhere.

Just out of curiosity, why do these retail at $150, while a MC (brake
right?)
for my 69 Chevelle costs less than $30.00 at Autozone?

Just doesn't add up

Here in Canada, at least, rebuilt master cylinders are very much 
cheaper than all-new models.  For example, I got a new one for $140, 
where there rebuilt one was offered at $50.  The quality workmanship 
of the rebuilt one was poor, and that of the new one was much better.

RE: [Chevelle-List] master cylinder mania

2002-10-27 Thread John Nasta
Makes sense to me. He did say that these are new. The reason he is offering
them cheap is because they are NOS, which means to him that they have been
taking up shelf space for a long time and he hasn't sold one in years. Of
course to one of us it might mean something completely different.

BTW he is going through all of the inventory and soon we will have pre-bent
exhaust pipes galore and tons of brake drums/rotors. His family owns 2
stores, one of which opened in 1929 and another that was originally a
Pontiac dealership until his dad bought the building in the 60s and
converted it to a parts store. To him these old parts are somewhat of a
nuisance because they are taking up space and he doesn't get any call for
them.
