I am looking at buying a parts truck for my 50 pickup. It comes with a 67 or 68 Camaro rearend. I don't need it and was wondering what it would be worth? I don't know the gears or what it came out of other than that. Thanks
A 12 bolt will bring some money, and if its a 12 bolt posi it's worth even more. There should be a code on the passenger side of the axle facing forward that will decode what it is. There should also be a code on the pumpkin itself. Post those numbers and we can tell you if it's worth $100 or $1500.
Mine is sitting in my storage unit, waiting for my next run to the scrap yard....lol. Once i get the headlight buckets and other pieces off the fenders and get the innards out of the doors, they'll be going as well.
The camaro rear will not fit the '50 unless someone has changed the spring perches. If so, then the rear will not be worth the price to put the perches back to spec.
Hate hijacking a thread, but... I live on a main artery in our neighborhood so if something even remotely metallic is seen by the curb, it doesn't last 15 minutes, at most. Piranha attack!!
More than once I'll still be walking back up the driveway after putting something out there and someone has already stopped to grab it!
I've helped more than one scrapper load his vehicle.
I build and sell 8.5" rears for these cars and I will buy or take these 8.2's as a core. I use the axles, backing plates and the end of the axle tubes then give the rest to a buddy for scrap. sometimes you find a decent ratio gear and can sell that on ebuy
That's 8.5 " rear from a later model ( 70's ?). Not sure, but thinking $5-700 to a Camaro guy if the width is correct and in decent condition...
