    I sort of have the opposite problem. I can't through my old parts away. I have a turn signal lens that has a hole in it. I replaced it with new model. Still have the old one. I replaced the center inserts on all my wheels. Kept all the old ones. I have a pressure plate that has less than 100 miles on it, wasn't my cup of tea. Still have it. It's kind of sad, really.

    Jim, I have the same problem. Every time I throw something away, I realize later I shouldn't have. I remember way back when I did suspension bushings on my 308, I tossed the old bushings. Wouldn't you know it, a couple weeks later there was a thread where someone needed the dimensions on an OEM bushing and I ran to the basement to measure one....then realized I tossed them all. Now I save things that no normal person would save. A cracked air intake hose? Why did I save this???

    just saw this thread, so to add to you support count, count me in: I have some unopened boxes of Mondial T parts, and just got off the wire with an Aussie over some 456 seats, and 'stuff'....

    wife sees these boxes and as long as I am making money for my junk-habit, she feels safe: downside, have a dozen homes not selling...she's still supportive.

    Can't stand to let some of these NOS or parts pass by me, I KNOW :) will be of value down the road...

    Use esnipe.....which is another bad way to win.

    I feel the call.
