[Mgs] Old MGB parts - what's worth keeping or selling?

[Dan DiBiase]

Steve, I would put together an inventory and just list it as one lot - buyer takes all - at a reasonable price. If you're just willing to dump it all at a recycleranyway, then you should put a price on it a little more than you'd get at the recycler. That way, the parts stay in circulation, you clean up some space and get somebucks back on your investment. Put it on craigslist first, for free...

I have a lot of parts that I pulled from the parts cars (1978 and 1979) I used to rebuild my 1980 MGB after it caught on fire.  I’ve got a mix of parts, mostly 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) – basically, whatever I could easily remove.  So now it’s 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’t 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’t want to go through the effort of listing everything if there isn’t really a market for it.  Thanks.  I’m located near Boston, MA if anyone wants to take a look.  --Steve (1980 MGB, plus parts)
