I've been going through my stuff, cleaning house. I want to take as little as possible when I finally move. I've thrown out a good bit already but the next go round is getting a little tougher. I look at something, it's perfectly good. Sell it in a garage sale? I've been to enough garage sales to see good shit that the seller can even give away, except to the garbage men. I've got a small collection of sheet metal screw from 20 years ago when I had my business. Good old USA, not China crap. I'd keep them, but really haven't touched them. These days every one uses drywall or hex head screws, not straight slot. Dump 'em? Same with anchors. I have a box of those ones that screw in. Haven't used them either in a long time. Sharpies as well. Got quite a few circuit breakers but again, just sitting for years. I can't remember when I used one. I've thrown out lots of old magazines and catalogs. I've thrown out a spare AM radio I had for my Mustang that the mice pissed on along with a rear view mirror that was rusty and pitted. Not going to use that! I've got a set of 289 rods and pistons along with a 289 short block that's getting rusty. It was bored .040 but just sitting ther collecting rust. I've got another 289 engine out of my Mustang along with a 6,000 mile C4 out of a 76 Monarch in my garage not to mention the C4 I pulled out of my Mustang last year sitting at the end of my driveway. I think there's at least 2 set of 289 heads in my shed as well along with 2 York AC compressors. I think I can use one in my wife's 69 Mustang. Yes, I've been working on that. No pictures as my daughter has my camera at camp.
I've already taken my 66 along with a bunch of parts and tools to the new place. I tossed a set of 82-84 Mustang GT aluminum valve covers I bought off ebay years ago. They looked a lot better then in real like. The guy took a sand blaster to them and a sanding disc to the lettering. Haven't gone to the curb yet. They would need to be sanded down and polished or painted to be saved if any one is interested.
I'm tired of clutter!
