Well, the glass and 1 fender are worth more than $50. There are a lot of posts here regarding rebuilding your springs. If they don't need re-arching, apparently disassembling them, cleaning, repainting and re-assembling is not too difficult.

There is a debate over teflon strips or buttons for between the leaves, but all agree to smooth out the inevitable "steps" where the end of each leaf rubs the next and then taper the leaf-end to reduce the wear here. NO GREASE between the leaves (attracts dirt, speeds wear).

Good luck.

Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.
