Selling a 226
I posted on marketplace a 226 the other day, no interest yet. This is a project I found that has been setting inside the back of my lean to. With all of the other projects I have to do I know I’ll never get to this one. I was asking $200 for this GT which is not running.

Re: Selling a 226
Great deal for some close by, the TCV with integrated holding valve is worth your asking price, and then you have a steering wheel that brings $100 used.
Of course, I wouldn't be inclined to part it out as my nature is to fix things. Grandpa always told me "if a man built it, a man can fix it".
That's why I have more projects than I will ever get to as well.

Re: Selling a 226
Bob, I’m very slowly getting rid of some of those projects that I know I’ll never get to. For me it’s a matter of changing my mindset. That way I can concentrate on projects that I will enjoy.myerslawnandgarden wrote: ↑Sun Jun 07, 2026 7:37 pm Great deal for some close by, the TCV with integrated holding valve is worth your asking price, and then you have a steering wheel that brings $100 used.

Re: Selling a 226
The problem I always find with selling anything is dealing with what my Dad referred to as the Jokers.

Re: Selling a 226
Your dad was polite about such people...
I need to sell off a 646, and I cringe at the thought of the people rather than knocking a machine off the inventory...
