What does everyone do with their old parts?
So, do you guys just pile them up in the garage? What about big things like body parts, hoods, bumper covers etc.? I've been dumping stuff that I think aren't of any value that nobody wants like stock springs, broken fans, stock shifter, air filter box. Some stuff would sell but then again it takes time and effort not to mention if some guy stiffs you. What about those who don't have a garage? Thats a bummer... I love my garage, too bad my wife likes it too (nice clean place to store her junk in)!

I'm only 24 and don't own a house (yet) so I improvise :-) I got spoilers, brand new strut tower connectors and lots of odds n ends at my Uncle's where we do the majority of the work. I also got spare gaskets at my engine builders garage. The rest of my parts like unused Electric fans, extra pwr steering pumps, spare brackets, are in my Grandfather's garage with lots of spare wire for hooking up my toys when (if) I ever get this engine broken in and go racing for real. I had a set a of stock honeycomb rims mounted on my cousins 5.0 but when the idiot sold the car he sold MY RIMS......and didn't even offer me a beer!!

My stuff is everywhere. All over the garage, against the walls in the garage, and in my attic. I have so many parts in my attic, Im waiting for the roof to collaspe from excessive weight. I could probably build a car with the stuff I have up there. I sold a few parts, but have kept most of them.

I'm a pack rat!!! I save everything, in thoughts that someday I might need it or someone else could benefit from it. I use to have a garage to park my car in, in bad weather. Now its more of a holding facility.
|
Pile it all in the basement, just pick a corner and there you go, permanent storage facility for all that useless and non sellable crap :)
|
LOL I keep most of my parts too, for some unknown reason!! I really don't know why!!
|
I live in a small apt, so all the parts hang out in the living room closet....like my H pipe :D
|
I have a bunch of junk at my dads garage.
E7's stock intake stock headers stock hood stock springs etc... I just bought my own house, hopefuly he wont ask me to take my junk to my own garage. Later, |
One word -eBay
people will buy anything. |

I don't save anything......sometmes I wish I did. I sell everything worth selling. Come to think of it.....I've got an F303 cam and K&N 10" cone for sale. :D

stock springs...
Well, I know this isn't really the place to be looking, but if anyone still has thier stock springs and they are in good shape and have low miles on them, E-mail me at keitha420@hotmail.com Thanks.

All of my old parts are in the corner of my mom's garage. I live with her so I get to use the garage to keep the stang in and to store all of my old parts. Half of the parts are junk but I can't bring myself to throw them out. I still have my old pony rims with tires mounted on them. I keep telling myself to throw the old rims and tires on, take a camera, and just burn em' off :)
