    new cocker front blocks, back blocks, and vasa for cheap?

    I bought some of the four for $100 2k4 bundles on gatewaypb but they don't come with the rest of the body kit. I would like to anodize and sell them as part of a complete body kit so that I can make back some of the money I spent on my anodizing setup. I want to sell the kit as new so I would greatly prefer unused parts.

    The cheapest I've been able to find each part with more than just a couple in stock is ~20-30 which feels bad spending >$60 to outfit a $25 body.

    edit: Does anybody know where to get them for cheap?

    I wouldn't really compare the price of the blocks to the body. Truth is you got the bodies for really cheap

    I'm also seeing $30 as the low mark. Those are the system x front blocks from actionvillage

    I use Tapatalk which does NOT display comments. If you want me to see it, make it a post not a comment.

      You have a good point

      I wounder if we did a group buy if we could get the price down. Might not be possible given the value of machine time nowadays.

        I'd contact mozak if I were in your shoes. Looks like he sells front blocks and back blocks with his build a body kits. His are 30 each, but he may work a deal on a set of 4. Even if he didn't come down on price, I'd try to support the real people if you can. The builds would undoubtedly come out cooler.

        Honestly if I had the dough, and all of the internal parts, Id buy 4 of those bodies. And send all 4 to mozak for legion cuts, and have him match back and front blocks for them. Man that would be sick.


        Please tell me you plan on cutting one up??

        Also, if you cant find parts, id take a hacked up and anodized experiment body if you sold it cheap, and it would work.

          I don't plan to get one cut, it's way over budget for me.

          I plan to sell the kits for ~$160-180 depending on how much work the Ano is. I've seen used bodies on ebay with a buy it now price of ~120 so $40 more for a cooler one that has zero blown out threads should sell quickly


          For just the body I'd probably sell it for ~$100

                From jek's original post, it looks like 4 of each(front/back blocks) and 4 VASA's.

                jetenginekyle did you get a PM from buzzinhi?

              That's fantastic to hear - sorry for the skepticism, the amount of spammers that this board attracts means a 2 year member with one post to their name garners some suspicion.

                Buzzinhi is legit. I met him at Slims we camped right next to each other. Really nice guy. He’s the one with the two puppies at camp. His last name is Buzzard.

                It’s also 100% him as we discussed things we talked about not on the internet. So put the ban hammer down Carp lol. This new account is legit.
