You might be a GL VW redneck if...
After looking around at my garage, basement, and back yard... The situation looks ugly! I see a Jeff Foxworthy bit coming up for my "hobby"/"sickness"/"junk collecting" or whatever profanity the neighbors have come up with.
Here is a short list of the clutter... Some of this needs to go! Garage: - Set of Fuchs wheels and spare (FS) - Set of Flats from a 931 (still need one more) - 2 Phone Dials (still need one more) - 1.7 T4 motor longblock (FS) - IRS tranny from a Super. For the Bus. - '87 944 engine and body - The 911SC - Air compressor and related junk - MIG welder and related junk - More 944 body parts than you can shake a stick at... Yard: - Bus wheels, split style and baywindow style... Worthless clutter! - A few heat exchangers - A few T4 rear hanger bars - A few late bay rear bumpers - A couple T1 mufflers (worthless) - And two low back Ghia seats... - And a random T1 engine block. Basement: - 3-4 T4 engine cases - 3 T1 engine cases - Loads of rebuilt T1 early carbs - Great 36HP shortblock - BA4 gas heater (412) - Cranks and heads of all kinds - Oil coolers - CIS FI stuff - T5 case - Loads of P&Cs (mostly junk) - 944 brake parts of all kinds - 944 swaybars and torsion bars - Piles of Split bus parts. - More T4 tinware than you can immagine! - And goobs of other trinkets. As you all can see this is rediculous. If I was more motivated it would almost all hit e-bay. ... Someone else please tell me I am not the only sick one

Sounds like my house.
What do you do with old piston and cylinder sets anyway. Think I have at least 5 or 6 sets now, t4 and t1.

Normally I just take them to the metal recycler place. They will pay you a little bit, but normally I just drop by on the weekend and dump the crap on thier doorstep. They can keep the nickel, they are doing me more of a favor than I am doign for them in my opinion.
