[T3] What to Recycle?

[SAW DUST]

Hey, where are you located? I’m in San Diego, are you willing to ship?
I’ve got a “67 Notch. 
I’m in need of a few parts;
Front left fender, rear left fender, front clip, both pop-out windows, 2 head liner bow hangers.

When I finally sell my '71 to a Rich Collector, I'll have everything from brake disks, master cylinders, a box of relays and Voltage Regulators, and calipers and generators and fuel pumps, camshafts, lights and fixtures, clutch disks, flywheels, heads, valves, a transmission, ball joints, torsion bars, ETCETERA Etc....plus two doors, a rear hatch, some bumpers and fenders, windshield and other windows, seat-belts, and again ETC...not to mention hub caps, with some dents.

That is....I don't know, and cannot test or guarantee, if brake master cylinders, coils, generators, distributors, injectors, calipers, etc etc are any good...not to mention the elec. relays and the like.
