So I'm no stranger to parting out cars, in fact it's become sort of a hobby of mine, but I am a stranger to parting out DSM's. I've currently got my 96 Talon TSI AWD stripped down to the point where the entire interior - including the dash, carpet, plastic panels, seats, trunk plastics, steering wheel, ECU, radio, and more - have been removed.
I've removed the engine and transmission, and plan on pulling the subframes, exhaust, gas tank, driveshaft and exhaust hangers (I'm planning on AWD swapping my new GST shell in the distant future, and these parts seem like the most annoying to remove from a shell, so why not do it now), and the doors.
I've removed the complete 2GB eclipse kit that was put on the car, and I plan on pulling the sunroof, clutch pedal assembly (including master cylinder and whatnot), and the rims and tires.
Is there anything else that anyone would recommend me tearing off of this thing? my fenders are shot and my wiring harness is toast (thanks to the previous owner), so I'm looking for a few last things to squeeze some cash out of. I'm hoping to be able to make enough from parting this thing out (and working) to fund a nice engine build and some restorative maintenance on the shell.
