Rebuild em. The rebuild kits are cheap, and it's something you should know how to do. Then, I'd keep them for spares, or sell them for a profit.

Thanks for the reply. I have Boxster brakes on my car now. But it might make sense to rebuild them and sell them.

In the core market, they are worth about $20 each IF ......

1.) No broken bleeders

That said, I would pay $10 each + shipping for our stock.

What someone is willing to pay on the open market ... well, pick a price and see what happens.

If you rebuild them, check Eric Shea's article on how to rebuild them correctly as if you don't do them correctly they will leak. It is not a matter of just replacing the piston seals. If they are missing the adjusters, you will be running into some money to replace them.

Thanks Ron!! They are complete. Maybe I will give them to my kids for a project.

When I come across them, I pack 'em up and send them to Eric Shea. For all the free advice he gives, he should get some free cores now and then... biggrin.gif

And no, I am not kidding.

Hey, you're really close, I could use a pair if you're selling cheap. Pm me with your price.
