    FYI to anyone new to the hobby...

    Do not take your car apart, then wait 6 years before putting it back together. Especially if you are going to move several times during that six years. I have buckets and buckets of bolts and fasteners. I also have no clue what I had not finished before moving it last time. :doh:

    Granada spindles, Oregon

    Title says it all. I picked these up a few years ago. But never used them. I have the spindles only. Although I do have the rotors, but they are worn and rusty. Probably cost more to ship than they are worth. $50 and they are yours. Located in Oregon, just south of Eugene.
