Talking Little Pig the Cannibal

Found a 98 CE with stick and cruise in the boneyard. What is the best thing to do?

Drive Little Pig to the yard and bite off as much of it as I can.

Here's the loot:
km/h gauge cluster with tach
Outside air temp probe
Most everything needed for factory grade cruise retrofit
Almost complete instrument panel wire harness (radio plugs got cut off )
Complete cowl wire harness - the most deeply buried wire bundle in the car. Damn I'm good.
brown integration relay with door locks
left side door handle, beige interior
rear center console with box, beige interior
lower storage box
A few small relays
1ZZ-FE M/T ECU
Canadian-spec DRL brain

Parts guy at the yard says the loot would be worth $150 on their price list. Entry fee is $50 so I think I did a lot better than the last few times. Last time I got only $16 of stuff and the time before I don't even know their worth for sure.

They'll soon be put up for sale once I sort through them. Let the dibbin' begin!

$50 is a buffet thing going on 5 weekends every year. Otherwise it's zero entry fee and you just get charged for parts pulled.

Looking at the price list it'd be cheaper than otherwise when pulling parts needed for a rear disc swap for both my cars. Too bad I've never seen an AE92 GTS there before.

If only they have this thing lying around when I did the manual swap. Then pulling an entire tranny and hauling it out poses another problem. Tranny and shifter would be $106 0 I paid $700 for mine. Rent a pickup and I'd still come out ahead.
