Unfortunately, "I could" is the problem.  If I had the space, I'd  
leave it as a car and take pieces off over time.  However, while dad  
wouldn't mind.... mom "wants that rustbucket gone".  She's a bit  
harsh, it's actually got less rust than my '75, but the paint is  
totally trashed, so it looks bad.  Really bad.

As I select parts, I have to be particularly careful about space.   
I'll add the axle and suspension subframe to my "keeper" list though,  
if I can keep the pile small enough, it can hide in a corner and mom  
won't mind (much).
