S5 found in dump... what should i get off of it
S5 found in dump... what should i get off of it
I went in and talked to the guy that runs the place and hes going to let me take some parts off of it. Apparently when the car came in (90 GXL) it was fine, but the damn machine that lifts up the cars pretty much took out passenger side door and a lot of passenger side interior. The front and rear of the car is still good. I already have a list of stuff im going to get, just wondering if you guys could think of anything else.
Tail lights
rear bumper
hatch shocks
steering wheel shroud
steering whell
shift ****
door handles
head light covers and motors
front bumper
here is a pic of what im working with

In case you don't know... and in case you really don't need them... those s5 tail lights have been selling for well over $200 on ebay.
I'd also pull:
a) All of the interior trim you can manage
b) Power antenna and motor (looks like it might be broke if it's stuck in the up position)
c) Spoiler if it's not bent
d) Headlight/Wiper Switches
e) Warning Lights
f) Pull the motor if you want to tinker and experiment
g) Any aftermarket stuff under the hood (CAI, exhaust, etc)
h) ECU
i) Anything you particularly need for your own car : )
You can sell most of this stuff on here or ebay or just keep it for yourself... good find! I'd maul this thing. haha

man thats just f*ck'n sad . My first fc was a 1990 gxl that looked exactly like that . I was young and destroyed the car and it was sent off to the boneyard . seeing that makes me feel guilty for hacking up my fc . Oh well i got a 88 t2 now !
See how much for the complete car. Strip it and sell what you dont keep.

Im very sorry to say that the wing has some damage that wasnt there earlier. When i got it reserved they decided to move it and in that process it aquired some damage. Im still going to take it, but ill have pics of it.
Im starting at 7am tommorow and then later on ill post pics up of what i got off of it. Thanks everyone for the ideas of stuff.. some of those things i didnt even think about. and anyone that posted that wanted something, i will take you into consideration first when im selling the stuff
