I have found an early bay front end drum to drum, rear suspension including drums and a L bug gearbox. The guy wants about $650.00 for it. Is this a good price?

No one ever bought this stuff before???

I've had to buy this stuff for my van.
I paid $250 for a complete front (clean with a bit of surface rust), but most of the brakes needed replacing, along with some of the ball joints. I only needed the brakes/axles/springplates from the rear to do my IRS conversion, those bits cost me $120. I picked up a good beetle gearbox (not L bug) for $100.

Those were my prices, just check if the parts are in good condition before you buy, and ask what will have to be replaced as well.
I didn't think much of my stuff when I first got it, but after attacking them with one of those 3M cleaning disks, they came up pretty good.

ie, the brakes are good ,ball joints etc ,is it going in a splitty ,you know it raises the front the price is sorta high end
