Hopefully he will have a bunch of replacement gearboxes, you could make some of your money back, just on those. Also anything discontinued including wheels, like VW Dune Beetle, Bigfoot, Grave Digger etc. Anything Peg will sell also, especially the SP gearboxes or anything cool like that. You will know what to look for when you get there. I believe in you.

I'd love to have some Mustang wheels and possibly other Mustang parts. Also, lifted jeep wheels (black).

I see you've already got "small parts" on there, but specifically I'd suggest you keep an eye out for hoods and tailgates for Bigfoots/F-150's, and hoods for Silverados. Those always seem to be missing, and in demand.

Waitng for the pics!

I would agree with most of the advise so far. Gearboxes are big, hoods, seats and other parts that are "removable" (and always seem to be removed). "take along" soundboxes.

Ah yes, sound-boxes/radios.

And maybe any 'clear' windshields and headlight lenses...?


Thanks Taz!

long shot but magica headlight lenses would be welcome in my book!

doors and anything thing that can be bent/ripped off would be a big one as well

only thing I think worth anything (to me) are the tires, I see loads of decent tires!

and he wants you to pay for all of those?!?! how much was he thinking?

Those little go-karts look like they have some potential. Haven't seen many of those around here.

Do I see a Lil Harley tucked away in the back? I would be interested in that.

That's a tough call. It sure looks like a lot of parts could be used but it would be a lot of work too. If you have the time you could make some money. I would buy the drive-train out of the Silverado and the steering wheel for spares for Sawblade.

WOW! Thats a lot of power wheels jammed in there. I agree with Sawblade, it would be a lot of work getting them all and parting them and selling, but you can make a nice profit from it all depending on your time. I see lots of metal framed Jeeps too! I would be interested in that Xtreme Machine, but I am not sure when I could head your way. I honestly think you can make more of a profit parting it though! Looked like it was a pretty interesting day you had. I bet you didnt know what to expect when that door swung open! Tell him that you can clear it all out in one day, even sweep up the floors for him to get him his storage space back and you will even throw in a case of his favorite beer.

I agree with ricam78. That sounds like a good plan. What do you think jparthum? Will the wife go for it?

---

• Need to borrow (or actually buy, since I'm always needing one) a trailer


• Probably need to recruit a buddy to come help me


• Need to get pallets and tarps to store them in the yard


• Or, need to take the time to pull the electrical components, and leave the bodies in the weather


• Need to somehow add more days to the week to accomplish all of this

Well, if they are free, she'll probably be OK with it.

But even then, I've got some logistics to work out;

• Need to borrow (or actually buy, since I'm always needing one) a trailer


• Probably need to recruit a buddy to come help me


• Need to get pallets and tarps to store them in the yard


• Or, need to take the time to pull the electrical components, and leave the bodies in the weather

I hear you. It's a BIG project. To bad I live so far away I'd help you.

---

I love the last logistical issue you have. That was pretty funny. If I were closer I would help you out too. I do think though that if the headache is too large, the project isnt worth it at all. Maybe the haul can help you pay for a used trailer after the parting though. Even then, it is still a pain to do it all. You have to think, what can I get out of all this work in the end and then decide.

Right, exactly!

That's why I'm scratching my head.

Another issue I left out, is processing these parts/payments/shipping in order to even get anything out of this. One idea I'm pondering, is seeing if someone like Hootie would want to buy some of the smaller parts in bulk, then part them from his store. Or maybe even some kind of consignment arrangement, where he can sell them first. I'm looking at all angles.

EDIT: Oh, and then I have find enough pools to get rid of all the bodies in!

Who needs pools. You are just a stones throw from good ole Sabine Lake! Actually, I think my company is working out of Sabine Pass right now. Hmmm...Maybe I can get there somehow...

What I would do is do the math. Get a ballpark count of how many powerwheels you saw. Figure that you can sell the old classic one and the wienermobile one and any other not to normal one. Then figure 2 gearboxes for each of the rest at about $8 each, tires at around $20 each, hoods or other small parts at maybe 15 each per vehicle. Those werent including any shipping costs, but you would have to spend a lot of time at the post office! Those numbers could be higher or lower, I was just throwing a number out there. If I had the time and space, space being a bigger problem, because there really isnt a huge rush to part, I would do it, as it would mean a lot of learning experience with parts and also a lot of parts and pieces to put together one cool and perfect working metal framed project when all is done. Again, I am sure you have a buddy that will work for his favorite brew as we all do. I guess the big question is how much does the old fella want for it all. If he wont let it go for free then this is all a waste of your time and patience. Tell him to call a cleaning service and pay them a couple hundred to take them to the dump for him if he says he wants $.
