Value of Metro parts?

I just got an email from a guy interested in my Geo Metro gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump, filler tube - the whole gas tank setup I removed from the Metro as part of my electric conversion project.

Anyone have any idea what that's worth? Just trying to come up with a fair asking price.

-Ben

$100.00 for all sounds fair to me. Unless you want to rape the guy because of the current price inflation of these cars.

The gas tank alone from the ForkenSwift went for 80 bucks. It was in really good shape, though, since it was just replaced a couple of years before.
