Is it possible anyone could help me decide what spare R4 parts I should keep and which I should discard while clearing my garage out? My problem is storage space and some stuff will have to go.
Having stripped a 1982 Renault 4GTL down to use as a donor car I have lots of spares, some serviceable and some not (but maybe useful for patterns). I have kept all mechanical parts, interior and trim, four very rusty doors and rear door, wheels, suspension, electrics etc. In a nutshell, I have kept all but chassis/floor panel, body shell, wings and bonnet.
Knowing what parts are readily available and what parts are hard to come by may be a good way of deciding what to keep and what not. I would like to discard those parts that are not worth keeping and those that are still readily available, and cheap enough to buy. I also believe that parts specific to right hand drive cars are more scarce than those for the left hand drive cars but I don’t know if this is actually so.
Can anyone advise me at all so I can chose carefully what I keep and what I don’t.
Thanks in anticipation.
