Found an RX4 planter at the Junkyard....

So since it seems to be a very intact rust bucket with a botanical garden inside, what are the main parts worth salvaging for me or anyone else that might need them?

I see a great set of rear tail lights, marker lights, a grill, a 13B (probably original), a transmission (4-speed?), and a dash, seats(crap),etc..

So guys, what is worth salvaging from the tin can maker? Front engine cover? motor mounts? tranny? lights? grill?

I don't want the thing, but I can't let an old rotary die without an struggle to donate parts to the living world.

I need advice....

One of the guys on this forum, AntiSUV, I believe, is looking for RX4 parts. Specifically, trunk latch mechanism (doesn't need the key lock) Front center grill emblem, and some other stuff. The taillights and rear valance are good to snag as are all the emblems and the dash if it's not too cracked. The dash is a nightmare to get out, I'll tell you that now. I'll e-mail him and tell him to PM you about the parts he needs. Or you could just PM him yourself. I told him I could help him with some of the stuff, but I've been too busy to get over to my '76 parts car to see what I can let go of. Bless you for thinking of us old-schoolers. -Mike
