Default What do you do with all of the OEM parts after upgrades

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what do you do with the OEM parts that you accumulate after making improvements.

I've got most of it in my OEM closet in the spare bedroom, in case I want to sell the car I can put it back to stock. Some of it like the wheels I've sold.

Same here. in my basement. Small stuff in a box. Grills and spoiler wrapped up staying clean/dry. Brakes in the garage. Only thing I trashed was the intake etc that was removed after going FI.

It's not thatI want to keep the stuff for any real reason other than I can't be bothered to ebay it.

Kept the wheels, Kept the stock air box etc..... As far as the rest. Sell....sell....sell........only way to keep the peace at home. Got to have some room to walk around the house and move around in the work shop.

Right now mine are taking up space in the shed. You can actually sell this stuff on E-Bay? I didn't think there was much ofa market for OEM mustang parts. I imagined there was a giant scrap pile of air boxes and stock shocks and struts somewhere.

I told the wife I was saving them for 30 years and plan on selling them to someone restoring a 2005-2009 mustang.
