Need some thoughts on an idea.

[RedShadow30]

So in short, i have a 318 car that was upgraded to a 440 with ALOT of different parts. They all match up, and they are all in good condition. Im thinking about taking some of these parts and selling them, and using or making better parts or parts that suit my style better. An example is i have a Ralleye dash, i want custom guages, i dont want to hack up the good restorable ralleye with no cracks, so i could sell it to someone that needs one, and make my own cluster and fund my project. I got a couple more examples, but i thing that gets the idea across. So what are yalls take on this?

I say do it - it's a win win win. Valuable parts dont get hacked up, someone else gets to enjoy them and you get some cash to make the car how you want.

I agree, that's the way to go. Sell the parts you want to and then have the cash to get the material to make your own stuff that you want to put in your car.

I know this sounds counter productive, but I'd make the dash first and if it works out the way you like, then sell the spare parts. You never know if you might need the original for a buck to make brackets off of or a mold etc. I've learned (yes, the hard way) not to sell anything until I'm absolutely positive I won't need them again.

Excellent point.
