Default Vegas Odds on Used Clock Spring ??

Getting ready to buy a used clock spring.and studying videos to build my procedure list. I'm at till it looks easy.in dyslexialand. But wondering how many had luck with their purchase? Any super reputable used parts dealers to recommend? Thanks.

Car sat four years,after a friend gave me his Crossfire. Now my mid-life crisis has passed, I'm getting Christene back on the road. Afraid to look at my timing belt. Sure is nice to not have three blind spots and a wing blocking the back window. I bought this car to survive one of New Orleans drunks.behind the wheel. #walkaway. Just got my seat belt retractor and studying the trim removal. It's scary riding around. I might start a new thread if I can't get started right. Can be seen at 2111 Dumaine St New Orleans @Google Earth 139 K !! 03' Blue . Only one dent. Decent leather! Working through old gas with cleaner. Probably should have went with dry gas. Haven't yet bought a container of Tranny fluid for the pour through. Visiting AirCon man. Hoping to get out of all the 20 year maintenance needs for -$900 ...as soon as the weather breaks.

All of this "save three cents" irritates me to no end. We are going to try and save a buck on a clock spring that does fail over time and can save your life.

I would suggest a 1977 Chevrolet Nova. The only electronics on the vehicle are the electronic ignition.
