    For those with really rare and expensive parts, also post where you live, what shifts you work and if you have any guard dogs, if so the dogs favourite snack

    Great idea for a thread, although the content of the responses is poop

    i don't have anything massively exciting though... A pair of new doors, some rl7 wheels in magnesium, Daytona interior... Nothing that will change the world.

    Probably the thing I like most in my collection is this unused manifold, thing Edd said it was one of the last courtaney ever done

    I've got a few bits that I've managed to get hold of, some for projects if I ever get time to do them.

    Re-built Nova Sport carbs, air box and inlet.
    Brand new GTE bumpers and grills
    Lots of panels, wings, inner wings, complete front chassis legs, back panel, rear quarters.
    Complete early SR bump strips new and a complete MK2 SRI new bump strip set.
    Various new genuine vinyl and decals.
    New lower snow plough.
    Snow plough fog set
    most of a headlamp wash kit
    Opening rear window kit minus one latch

    Probably lots more that I've forgotten about.

    Dave.

    I used to have a massive stash

    Couldn't see the point in it all tbh, sold it off, spent the money on things for the Sport and couple grand on a new mountain bike, which I get much more enjoyment from than a loft full of parts doing nothing

    Have started stocking up on some stuff again tho

    Not been collecting anything recently. I've got lots of panels, headlights etc etc once the car is built I'll punt everything so people who need them can use them.

    How about an original GM GTE back box, had countless arguments over this, the GTE had a specific back box that came out flush with the bumper not at an angle like most people presume,
