If you've been following the "towing without a towtruck" thread, you are aware I am trying to get a hold of a parts bus.  I'd like to know what parts people may be looking for. I understand the engine runs, but the pressure plate is toast.  It would help to know what market I might have for pieces that I don't plan to keep or will have extra of.  If I can help pay for acquiring it, it'll be much easier to get it!  ;D  I'll be keeping:

all doors
rear bumper, corner
stainless panels
windshields
alternator
various air pistons
brake cans (?)
mirrors(?)
starter
bulbs/small electrical bits
radiators?

I'll have extra:
front bumper
all doors (actually 2 extra sets of rear engine doors)
front bumper pods (if they will come off without breaking)
engine
mirrors
gauges
side sashes (I don't know if these are sliders yet)
2 driver's side windows (both are ticket window style)
triangle windows
various trim pieces

I'd like advice on what else I should save and what other people would want.  If the engine is good and someone wants it, we'd have to find a way to remove it.  I don't have a cradle or heavy lifting equipment other than an automotive engine hoist.  Let me know!

Right now I need a rear bumper, rh windshield, maybe the radiator blower assembly. I'll have to make a BIGGER list ;D

Bob,

I think a used windshield is hardly worth the risk (unless it's a 4104 back glass)

I might be interested in a couple of the air tensioners like on the over the road air etc.

I need the front & rear ORIGINAL STYLE clearance light lenses  if they are in good shape.

I've done some research on installing pantograph style doors in my MCI 7 that had the swing up style, and I can't change over at this point.  So, that would make the bay doors and hardware available also.  These doors I believe are almost perfect.  I know 1 door has a dent the size of a silver dollar.  Since the skins are different than mine, I wouldn't need the battery door and gas tank door either.  Keep the lists coming!
