So I just saw these on ebay...

So I have a few questions...

1st; What else would I need besides what's in the picture?

2nd; Would it be a "simple" bolt on situation? (after some rebuilding...)

3rd; Any opinions on their condition? What would be a good price?

I haven't spent any money on the Little Car in a while, so I don't want it to start to feel neglected...

It looks like all the parts are technically there, but the problem could be the shape of the parts. At a bare minimum, one should rebuild the calipers, new hoses, new bushings, new bearings, and seals. It is common for the lower fulcrum bolt to be worn, frozen, etc. I guess what I'm saying is that based on the questionable condition of the parts, it could be straight forward, or you could find yourself having to find more "hard" parts.
 
I have a set of those that look just like them. What are they going for?
 
Well.... It seems the guy pulled the auction...

They initially had a "buy it now" price of $125, and the bidding was at $68 when I last looked and shipping would have been about $50.

ps thanks for the information... even if I could not act upon it.
