Given the relatively low value, I did the same thing and seem to have an ever growing pile of those parts in the basement

In the garage...do not get rid of them. Later down the road you might want to part out the car before you sell.

one of the reasons i'm building a new shed,
is to house all of this crap that's taking up
valuable space in my garage.

yes, you want to save it all.

I actually sold a good deal of it to another guy who had supercharged his car. He was getting a divorce, his car had to be sold (split $$ with his wife), and he hadn't saved ANYTHING when he put the supercharger on. He wanted to return to stock before selling so that he could sell the supercharger separately without her finding out. I made out pretty good on the parts, so I don't regret selling them. I still have my stock swaybar/radiator support, LCA's, driveshaft, shifter, motor mounts, etc. Anybody getting a divorce and need some stock parts?
