If a person is restoring an older Porsche and wanted original parts, this is definitely something to look at. Finding an original bezel or a lamp socket (especially for 356 guys) is pretty hard to do nowdays. Some of those parts can be straightened and made to look like new.

Somebody's trash is somebody's treasure.

In the hands of a good 356 restorer, this pile of torn metal could change easily into cash... a guy like Victor Miles for instance could make perfect pieces from scratch...you'd amazed...as Jay said: "Somebody's trash is somebody's treasure."

I know what you guys are talking about, been there (when I restored my previous car) but hey $200 bucks. Not $20 bucks.
