Default 5.0 parts

So im in the process of cleaning out my car inside and out changing fluids etc getting ready for summer and ive come to realize that everything ive been replacing has been piling up in the trunk. This gets me thinking whats everyone do with all those parts that come off theyre cars throw em out? stack em up around the house? post them on ebay and try to makea buck?

if I replace an intake then I take it to the scrap yard and turn it in for aluminum ..for money = not much but better than nothing

I hang onto everything. As the old expression goes, worthless $hit too valuable to throw away. Although, I also have multiple friends with Foxes and buy ponies at the drop of a hat when I get a good deal. You never know when you need something stupid like a throttle body bolt or 7 rib PS pulley.

I also hold on to all my parts I'm not using, because you never know when you'll need it. At least for me thats how it goes.

All my stock Jeep stuff I just throw away...

When I finally get a fox I'll probably keep the stuff around just in case, though
