After I finished building my MGB GT V8 I had lots=20
of parts left over - both new and used. I put=20
them on eBay and got a total of more that=20
$2,500. Funny thing was that the parts I thought=20
would go did not, but the parts I thought no one=20
would want went like hot cakes. I also used Kijiji.

Hi, I=E2=80=99m trying to make some space in my garage, so I=E2=80=99m going=
through
boxes that haven=E2=80=99t been opened in 10 years. I have a lot of pa=
rts
that I pulled from the parts cars (1978 and 1979) I used to rebuild my
1980 MGB after it caught on fire. I=E2=80=99ve got a mix of parts, mos=
tly
small enough to pick up and put into a box. The largest piece is a
flywheel, but there are a couple of starters, a Z-S carb, some emissions
parts, old wiring harnesses, some plastic parts (fan blade, windshield
washer reservoir) =96 basically, whatever I could easily remove.<br>
<br>
So now it=E2=80=99s a decade later and I need the room more than I need the
parts. Is there anything that I should look for in my boxes that is
hard to find and might be good to sell on eBay, or anything that I
shouldn=E2=80=99t even bother wiping off and just take it to the metal
recycling station? There are a lot of air pumps, tonneau bars,
jacks, etc. listed on eBay, so I don=E2=80=99t want to go through the effort=
of
listing everything if there isn=E2=80=99t really a market for it.<br>
<br>
Thanks. I=E2=80=99m located near Boston, MA if anyone wants to take a
look.<br>
