WTB 77-83 Bilstein front struts

need to be straight, okay condition.
these will be cores for a rebuild, ie raise spindles, repaint, etc.

Ted, if your still interested in a pair of cores, I finally replaced my fronts yesterday with the ones i bought from you in the summer. How much are they worth? (77 930)

my interest is in a pair of STRUTS to be used in a project.
so they are essentially CORES that will be substantially modified.
the INSERTS (shocks) are not necessary.

but thanks for the thought!
and have you driven the new setup much yet?

you bet I've driven the setup.
the shocks transformed the car into a different animal; but still not too harsh. The car actually turns when I want it to and goes where I point it, when I point it. Again without the filling-jarring ride of a purpose-built track car.
thanks for all your input and help!

there's a lot of smoke, mirrors and scuttlebutt regarding proper damper values out there, so i took it upon myself to TRY THINGS.

mostly the rumor and inuendo regarding 'too stiff' is JUST WRONG.

a good set of shocks, properly valved, are great even when more firm.

enjoy! ted
