[T3] Parting out a Type 3
<x-flowed>I found out there is a Type III in an Oceanside Ecology. It turned out to
be a '73 Clementine Sunroof Fastback. It had been hit hard in the diver's
side, aft fender, forward door. Seems the A pillar is bent, which is most
likely the cause of why it is there. It spent its life in the Fallbrook
area, trekking to Camp Pendleton (Funny what owners leave behind! ;-)
L.O.L.). The odometer said 86,000 and it seems it was a well taken care of
186,000.
I had a hard time starting in part because of lack of knowing were it was
and what tools I needed. Also, I had a hard time deciding what to pull and
the fact of that it is a Type 3. I spent a hour and half, when I got called
that they were locking up. Apparently, because I forgot my wrist watch and
was so into it, they had closed the sales office.
I went today for another hour, and was more careful (forgot to pull the
gauges and pulled a touch to hard, lucky it is not noticeable). In the end,
I could have pulled more if I had a helper, more time, and money. For
myself, I got the dash, front and rear bumpers with over-riders, and sunroof
with almost perfect plastic bits, only missing the cog and interior bits
(thus, good cables, center plastics, elbows, slides, metal panel, and
interior panel).
So, parts to sell to the community, I picked up:
Set of three gauges: $80
Both fixed quarter glass with supple rubber and trim: $100
Center mirror: $15
"E" E.C.U., cover, and supple harness: $30
Glove box: $20
Fuel pump and dampener: $40
Brake reservoir w/o cap: $5
Thank you,
