To make a long story short, there's a local guy selling a 93 KLZE-equipped Probe GT and a ton of spares, that he's not willing to sell separately.

Now, I live in an apartment and can hang on to a few of the spares to use or sell on a forum, but have no way to store a hatch, doors, hood, like 6 intake manifolds...etc. My folks would probably be kind enough to let me store some winter wheels/tires in their garage, but I don't want to turn their place into a salvage yard.

I'm sure that over a year or two, I could probably sell everything off, but I'm not sure that renting a storage unit to store these parts is a brilliant financial move. I'd feel a little guilty about scrapping the parts, but it's not like there's a huge demand for Probe stuff.

Are there any other avenues I haven't considered? Any LeMons/Chump teams that are running a Probe that need spares?

Depending on what the spares are, i probably wouldn't feel guilty about scrapping the parts at all.

The intake manifolds might be worth keeping depending on what exactly they are.

Scrap the body panels if you don't need them. Nobody will ever buy them.

What else is there?

craigslist for free (or $5 to eliminate the flakes) the parts you don't want?

I'm not opposed to giving the stuff away for free, but I doubt the landlord will be thrilled about the impromptu scrap yard I'd start on his front lawn.

Plus, I'd rather keep the CL crazies away from where I live.

If you were closer i'd give you a couple hundred and part that stuff out myself.

Hopefully that helps you out, though.

It does, A LOT. Thanks!

I'm trying to get a beater car at the moment, but after I secure that, I intend to check this Probe out.

Maybe I should hit up Probetalk and see if there's a local guru who could come help me out with the inspection.
