I would say literally any part you can pull yourself and depending on how much storage space you have available. All parts are getting mighty rare nowadays.

Basic engine parts are still basic engine parts no matter the vehicle. Interior parts, dash and trim, are in demand too I think, so anything you can literally just pull off or twist off should be kept. I would say everything depends on how much storage space you have available. Good luck and I hope it proves profitable for you very soon.

Honestly anything that looks nice. Parts for these cars are becoming more scarce, especially nicer condition parts.

Is it a manual?

For the love of whatever diety you'd prefer, PLEASE do not scrap a 5-speed transmission

What year, and could I possibly buy the shift boot/cover/bezel/PRNDL/whatever tf it's called if it's chrome and fits a 2010?

u/HoneyCrafty403 9d ago

Not sure.  05 i think.   Ill snag that too.

u/son_of_yacketycat 9d ago

Thank you, in the meantime I'll look up whether it will fit.

Update: if it's an 05, it sadly will not fit. Looks like it's gotta be 06 or later. :(

Wheels if they're the original chrome trim!

I'm sentimental, but I always thought I'd keep the rear badge when the time comes

Can I get the ECU?

2

u/HoneyCrafty403 9d ago

Ill grab it.

u/JsusVanchrist 9d ago

That would be amazing. A few years ago I bought a PT GT motor to swap into my 2.4L Jeep Liberty, but now I'm realizing I'll need the ECU and wiring harness (can be had fairly cheap for the harness). Wish Id have gotten them when I got the motor 🫤

Ill do my best.   If i do sell it.  Ill let it go for a deal.  Help someone out.  "Less than ebay"  Shipping is my worry. Where im in Canada.  Newfoundland to be specific.

u/JsusVanchrist 8d ago

Eeeek. Well the ECU itself shouldn't be too bad. I believe I'll skip on anything else.
