Isuzu Impulse Spindles and brakes

I have a pair of the spindle/brake assemblies from one of the late eighties "suspension by Lotus" Impulses. They're GM World Car, and as near as I can tell the spindles are identical to Chevette and early Fiero. They offer a big brake option to anyone using the Chevette spindles. The rotors are about ten inch diameter vented. The rotors need to be turned and generally cleaned up, which probably costs more than getting new ones, although the bearings are pretty expensive. And the calipers should be overhauled, with rebuilt ones going for $25-$50 each on line, but most come without the bracket.

I've also got two pair of Fiero/Chevette spindles. All stuff I picked up at a local pick n pull ten or twelve years ago.

I've decided to use Miata spindles and brakes instead of these.

The photo shows one of the Impulse assemblies next to a Chevette spindle.

If I were going to ship them to someone it would probably make most sense to just send the calipers and possibly the spindles. Gee, I've already spent more effort typing this than they're worth. I'd be happiest if someone would just come and pick them up. I'd accept a beer at the local brew pub in trade. Failing that, I'd be happy with a left rear caliper from an '84-'85 RX7 GSL in trade.

Jerry,
How much for both the full Impulse assemblies and the Chevette spindles, shipped via Fed Ex to Warrenton Va. 20187?
