Default sending my 89 to the scrapyard, what parts should i keep?

So, i've got this 89 2.5 turbo that i just cannot get to run right. it either runs too rich, or runs poorly and stumbles. Overall the car is in fair condition, but i've had enough and i need the space back in my garage so i can paint a motorcycle.

I'm planning on sending the car to the salvage yard, but will be keeping any parts that might be worth a few bucks.

It's got a nice louvered rear window, a new cylinder head, a good turbo 1, intake and exhaust manifolds are in good shape, i have 3 instrument clusters and 3 or 4 computers for the car.

The headlights work properly, and the front and rear bumpers are in good shape but im not sure if it would be worth my time to take them off before junking the car.

What other parts would you all recommend i salvage?

Sorry it took so long to reply to you guys.

Im located on Guam.

here with the navy, so i figure i can hold on to the parts that are too big to mail off until i get back to the states,

im currently stripping the car, ill post some pics of the decent parts.

We get domestic rates with the USPS here so it shouldnt cost much to mail off anything under 70 lbs.'


far as i can tell a lot of the interior plastics are in decent shape, with the exception of the door panels, not sure how good those are.

the fold up headlights are good, took them out tonight, working on pulling the motor out now. ill get to the interior in the next day or 2. soon as i do ill post up some pics of any parts that are worth looking at.
