Title: When I said that car was a parts gold mine I meant it (Pics, 56k no)
Post by: Thunder Chicken on January 12, 2006, 03:54:00 PM
When I bought that parts TC I mentioned that it had a trunk, back seat and passenger seat full of spare parts. I had no idea just what was there until I decided to take inventory. Here, in phtographic form, is a list of the parts that came with that car. Bear in mind that these parts are in addition to any that are bolted to the car:

Nice!  So was the interior in need of a make-over or do you have stuff to sell now?

Actually, the interior is nearly mint, save a cracked dash. The extra dash has no cracks. The girl I bought the TC from knew somebody that parted out an '87 Sport that washiznit on the left side, which is why there is no left door panel. She was a bit of a pack rat and kept everything, as you can tell.
 
I will be selling stuff off once I decide what I'm keeping. I have already decided I'm keeping:
 
Rear end
Front Brakes/spindles
Sway Bars
Rims
Hood
Header Panel
All extra lights except the pair of tail lights I promised to OldRaven
Complete interior
All glass
Front fenders & doors
 
I'll likely be selling off such things as the metric cluster (200km/hr), engine, tranny (Unless I can find a use for them),  and various other bits & baubles. I'll also be selling off much of what is pictured above (console, digital cluster, dash panels, etc), since it's extra-extra stuff

Mine will find its way into some sort of buggy. Imagine an Odessy with that motor. Good times at the camp, I say.:D

Cool. Wish I had that kind of luck around here. But then again if I found a car full of interior parts, they would probably be all red.

I've been thinking about that too - perhaps a shortened, narrowed Ranger 4X4 chassis :evilgrin:

I only wish it was all red, then it'd match my 88's interior and would save me from swapping the whole thing
