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

the recycler. That way, the parts stay in circulation, you clean up some
space and get some<br>
bucks back on your investment. Put it on craigslist first, for

<b>Subject:</b> [Mgs] Old MGB parts - what's worth keeping or
selling?<br>
</font><br>
Hi, I’m trying to make some space in my garage, so I’m going through
boxes that haven’t been opened in 10 years. 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.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
Thanks. I’m located near Boston, MA if anyone wants to take a
look.<br>
