Default Fiberglass Rear Spring - Out of body off 1972 LT1

I am selling a fiberglass rear spring which came out of a 1972 LT1 for $125 OBO plus shipping from 10598. We took it out because the owner of the car is slowly but surely bringing the car back to stock. This spring was put in by the PO during the body off restoration ~2013 and has less than 3,000 miles on it.

Its either a 315 or 340 I'm not sure since I didn't put it in the car only took it out. But it is definately a small block spring. Sorry about the confusion, was looking at the wrong catalog before. If you know how to tell I can apply your knowledge.

I believe that is a 340lb spring. The spring rates correspond to 101 = 315, 103 = 340, 105 = 360 (i think). Looks like the 103 on the sticker is punched, which seems to indicate a 340. Just my .02. Hope that helps.

A quick back of the envelop calculation yields a shipping cost of $450 - $1000 depending upon package sizing and weight. I am not willing to do this, there is way too much risk if I estimate wrong, or you don't like the spring etc etc.
