Doug,
Any useable part should be saved as you never know what will happen down the
road.
Also, a list member may need the part in a pinch.
I have a bunch of "spares" from every part of a TR3 and some less for the TR4.
Body, suspension, spare transmissions, rear ends, springs you name it.
I have supplied some spares to list members in the past and I have noticed
other members doing the same.
Once I sent a box of TR3 stuff to a guy in South Africa as he had no easy
access to our parts suppliers.
If the part is in good shape, just needs some cleaning and a spot of paint, I
would find a place to save it for the future.
I use the attic of my garage for most of my archive. All parts that have been
cleaned, painted etc. are stored in the cellar.
Now that I have acquired a TR6, I wonder where the parts from that car will be
stored during the restoration?
Bob
