Any Possible Parts Value?
I am starting to make a dent in my parts pile for my project.
I have some items, that I wonder if the effort to sell will equal any price I receive. Here is a list of the parts I am thinking about. I am not fishing for buyers or trying to bypass the forum rules for selling. I just would like a yes or no answer if these parts have value to sell or just toss out in the trash? - 70 rear interior quarter trim, bright blue, one with the stiching, one with out, and both have had ash trays added. - 70 rear interior sail panels, bright blue, but "chalky" on the very ends. - 2 sets 70 seat backs, green color, one set really "chalky", other only a bit, but with scratches. - glove box doors - ash tray door - various consoles with cracks, burns, tears - pair bright blue sun visors, but one has a tear. I am sure I will find more crap as I near the end. This is just what I dug up tonight. Please just a simple yes or no answer is all I am looking for. Thanks.

Sun visors, ash tray, glove box doors, sail panels -- if not too badly deteriorated. Quarter trim -- possibly. Rest -- unlikely.

If someone is doing a 70 with blue interior I would think it would all have value. I have a ratty 71 and all of that stuff might be better than what I have in it so to a guy like me a package deal on a bunch of driver type parts would be appealing. Just a thought, price individually and throw out a good deal price to take it all and clean up. Mark

Thanks for the feed back.
I guess what I would consider not usable, could be very usable for another person's project. I will add them to the sell pile. Thanks.

I find that almost anything related to a 2nd gen T/A is sellable.
That's how I built my 71, by compiling used parts here and there, shopping on CL and Ebay for deals.

My honest opinion, is that there is no harm in trying to sell the stuff.
Take some good photos, and make some "for sale" posts here... Just keep in mind shipping - even though I make it clear that shipping is at buyers expense, they generally need cost ahead of time, which requires you to be able to box it up, or at least have the means to package it up, as well as get cost; For me, the biggest inconvenience of selling stuff is shipping - getting crap boxed up (s that it won't damage on route) and getting it to the post office ect.
