So, I bought 2 skids of bike parts....
Hi all,
First off, this isn't here to make me all sorts of cash. It's here to help out someone restoring an old bike, or make their bike run using parts that you just can't fine anywhere else. I've been getting into restoring steel road bikes from the 80s. I used to restore pre-war balloon tire bikes, but they just weren't as much fun to ride.
I recently bought out a bike shop out of Missouri. I got a couple of skids of NOS bike parts. These are parts from late 70s through early 90s. If you need a vintage freewheel or a special derailleur for that steel bike let me know. There are tons of nuts and bolts, odd tubes, about a 2 foot stack of chain-rings, how about some hot pink Benotto tape, piles of brakes, cleats for old pedals, even a pair of Vittoria Italian Handmade road shoes (size 46). WAY too much to possibly list. Most will get sorted through and shelved. Lots of it will be e-bayed. Giving you folks here the first shot.
I have to admit, going through the boxes was like Christmas! So, if there is anything special you are looking for, send me a PM of post here and I'll let you know if I have anything for ya.
One thing I am looking for is a Campagnolo rim - 36 hole Lambda Strada Clincher 700c. I only got one in the deal and want to build a pair for a 1983 Trek 760. I love the old steel bikes!!

Replying to a few of these....
Have some 5 speed freewheels. Large and small - Suntours. Also TONS of 6 speed.
Chainrings: A boat load of rings. What are you looking for or what do you want to do with them?
Cottered cranks: Misc. cranks, misc lengths, some double chainrings, some single and lots of arms. Yes, have 9.5 cotters
I have ONE Campy derailleur... but that one I'm keepin', sorry.
Mr. Perz, Look at my pictures in my profile. I have a Black Ofmega derailleur for ya.. near mint

Thanks, but I might have to pass on it. I'm actually looking to upgrade my Chorus RD and want something that plays nice with Syncro II. That Ofmega piece is lovely though - one of my favorite derailleurs ever made, actually. So much, incidentally, that there happens to be one in my profile pic.

Good on the 9.5 cotters, what do you need for a handful (a dozen). Looking for a 42 or 44 tooth cottered set with 165mm(6 1/2") arms.

Any chance you have any nice, old, friction or friction/indexed bar-end shifters? I've been trying to turn a late-80's/early-90's Raleigh Eclipse into the respectable touring bike it always wanted to be. It began its life with a riser stem and flat bars, but it's slowly coming around.

I'm looking for a left-side crank arm for a 1950's era Raleigh Sports. You wouldn't have any older Brit bike parts in that pile would you?

Replying to several:
I have to sort through the cotters. Mixed bag of dozens of them. I'll dig out some 9.5s and let you know how much.
Have to measure cottered arms and count the teeth. Let you know asap.
Have a photo of the right side arm? I may be able to scrounge a mate for it. TONS (well, several pounds anyway) of cottered arms.

I do have some vintage bar end shifters... I'll get some photos this week and stick 'em in my profile.
