So what did I get myself?

Had a friend who is also a member, that sold his rx7 so he had a box of parts lying around. So my question to you is what did I get exactly, I mean I know the simple stuff like gauge clusters but some of the other things I don't know. Also what is some of this stuff worth? Most of it seems to just be spare parts, and some of it is for a 13 b as where I have the 12a.

EDIT: Also got rear hatch glass without wiper and both driver and passenger window on tops of what is shown. Also the front metal piece that goes above the bumper, and a drivers side crank window regulator. If anyone is interested I kind of want to trade my hatch glass for one with a wiper assembly.

Yeah, all good spare parts for someone. Not worth a fortune but you might be able to sell it all and get $100-$200 by the time you're done.

Right off the bat i see:

79/80 stereo and shifter surround and switches that go in it.
79/80 gauge cluster (the one on the right)
83 gauge cluster (on the left)
Some interior and exterior door handles
two FB shifters
2 rear upper control arms (the short ones)
1 rear lower control arm
Wiper arms
plastic vent that goes on the back of the b-pillar
Driver side tail light (I think driver)
Some rad hoses
an 81-83 dimmer switch

Hopfully that helps some

Those shifters seem shorter than the current one I have.

Don't know yet, got a lot more pieces that I am still waiting to fall into place. But so far I'm just driving my car as is.
