Hate to spoil your party but it's disc front ends which are hard to get - not drum front ends.

Vintageholden I do hope I have not offended you mate as it was by no means my intention. You said you were not sure what they are worth so I told you what they go for. The value is only in the disc brakes and they will set you back complete with stubs, rotors and calipers etc usually over $350 for good ones that only need caliper kits. This is where they hit the $500 mark and hence the drum brake fronts only worth $150 or so because the buyer then needs to buy the disc set up or keep the drum stubs and pay $120 for a special bracket to adapt commodore disc brakes onto them and then they still need to buy the calipers and rotors. Like I said I am not trying to piss you off or offend you and if I did I am sorry but just letting you know what they are worth.

The reason I posted the other one was to show you what is actually useful on a drum front but as it would seem you are getting a little upset by posting other peoples overpriced bare front ends then by all means post away. I paid $150.00 for my HR drum front end complete with all steering components including the HR steering arm to fit onto my EH steering box why this news upsets you is something I am a little unsure of and like I said I am sorry if it offends you but this has never been my intent. You stated in your original ad that you didn't know what they are worth and posted it at $500.00 which is well above top dollar for a drum front and two people chose to be helpful and say that possibly this figure is too high. The bare front ends you posted have been re posted on ebay many many times as no one will buy them as they are simply way overpriced. If you want $500 for the front then by all means sell it for that and truly I hope it does as it will vastly increase the price of my disc brake front end as well as $500 is all that it would ever go for. Anyway I do not wish to get in to any more tiffs with you in this site as I hold it in very high regards.
Cheers Jason
