Useless Spare parts , why am I keeping them
Posted: Thu Jul 26, 2012 11:01 pm
Why do I have a collection of brake wheel cylinders that SHOULD be easily cleaned , reamed and new seals fitted but arent ( though the rears are a pain and cost £45 to get overhauled professionally more cost than NOS if I can find it ). small pile of clutches - how do I know if they are worn beyond re-use , small pile of M35G starter bodies and roters. Oddments of windscreen wipers , headlamps ( only with one beam working ) , front and rear brake drums that are probably not worth re-skimming and striping of corrosion - I would like to repaint the outsides in smooth red paint as it looks nicer but if the innards are worn to excess there is no point .
Other items , broken plates to 1098 front indicators painted silver that loses the earth connection and the holes for screwing to front wings. Quite a few stainless ( so how come corners are rusty ) and painted door frames that I cannot remember if they are from two door or four doors.
Not that I can get to the spares , they are hidden behind books , papers , bicycles , motor bikes internals of a camper van and useful engine and gearbox ( funny the travellor seems to be missing these )
