Need to clean house/bulk sale?

[topher5150]

I have a pile of parts that have been following me around for the past decade or so. I really don't want to throw anything away if can help it. I was thinking grouping parts by kit, or would I be better off selling the whole lot and let people pick through it? 

It's not a giant collection by any stretch enough to fill a medium box or two.

Have you thought about posting what you have on the Forums Trading Post section?

you could try trading them for a kit or two

I'm not big on selling on eBay lately, but I do see bulk lots of parts for sale. I also see guys in my club that bring them in and give them away.

I build pretty much only stock so I wind up with a lot of unused parts. I sorted everything by category, wheels in one bag tires in another etc. Had 3 shoeboxes of stuff that I traded to a guy that sells parts at the local shows for kits. Wound up with 3 kits I needed and we were both happy.

Probably the best way to let a potential trader (or buyer) get a quick idea of what's there without having to sort through it all, counting wheel sets, etc.

I did that so it'd be easy to see what's there and makes things easy for everyone. Used to irritate me to no end when I'd go look at a car for either a job or for purchase and there'd be 20 years of junk on & around the car. Like I told one guy "10 grand to do XXXXX and $2500 to remove everything around & on the car. I can't give you a good estimate if I can't see what I'm looking at"
