Located this car a few miles from me, guy bought it for the engine to put in his jeep. Here are pictures of whats currently left, what else should I grab?

What I've gotten so far,

Inside or rear brake lights to do the duel conversion.
sunroof motor&cable, (Already installed in my CD and working great!)
Mono Valve (installed in my 81)
aircon control, (installed in my 81)
rear view mirror (installed in my cd)
pass door mirror (added to my 81)
any good wood trim (to practice refinishing)
pass seat bottom, (installed in my 81 drivers side)
rear seat upper, (installed in my 81)
all the vacuum pods (tested and working)
All the tires and (5)rims (90%) tread. (going to pick out 5 best from all my rims and have them redone for the CD.)
Rear end, (going to upgrade the 81 low gear ratio rear, also gives me spare axels)
power ant, and brand new in the bag power mast. (going in CD)
Dash pod (to match the rear end)
All the switches (just in case)

What's left...
All doors, glass, regulators, door panels are fair. steering box (Has a little play but lots of adjustment left)
Car was driven before parting to test engine... so that transmission is good. anything else? The car is about to goto the scrapper or he will sell the remainder for 300 bucks. (the price he will get from the scrapper)

I use a 14.4 volt battery for a DeWalt drill, made some jumper wires to use at PNP to get the window motors to work and to check the regulators. you will have to get the window 1/2 way down to remove the 2 10mm bolts that hold in the window.

so pull the reg/motors, and the door vacuum actuators. once removed, suck on the rubber hose to see if each side will hold vac against your toungue.

How about the wiper motor and linkages? heater blower motor and heater core and ac evaporator.
fenders, deck lid, window aluminum trim................

as I understand it, the drivers window motor in NLA.

If the car isn`t full of rust, might be cheaper to buy the whole thing. there is always those little clips, pins and ??? other little dodads that always seem to come up.

I'd put the wheels on and drag it home where I have air for a proper stripping. Get anything that is in decent shape. Seat cushion can be swapped, ignition switch can be re-keyed, lights, body panels, glass, trim, wiper motors, tranny all can be useful. Local tow truck driver said he could get $500 with engine & aluminum wheels intact.

85SD 240K & stopped counting painted, putting bac together. 84SD 180,000. sold to a neighbor and member here but I forget his handle. The 84 is much improved from when I had it. 85TD beginning to repair to DD status. Lots of stuff to do.

If those windows are factory tinted (and not just fitted with a film) - I'd grab as much of it as I could... it sells at the premium over here (I guess it would where you are too).

Oh yes and perhaps any tachometer bits and the dash board if it is crack free!

AND you could get some cash for the "chrome" light trims here - and the wing mirror - and the brake booster etc etc

Ah bugger just take it down to brass tacks!

I don't think that's tint... just dirt... lol.

It just hit me looking at the pictures again. the way the left side is jacked up, that is really something. not too sure I would want to get under it.

Iam sure someone is looking for good rust free floors for their rust bucket.

The trailing arms from PNP with the hubs, are $42 each. wow those new one`s must be gold plated.
