    Are stock parts worth keeping?

    Hey guys! I just wanted to see what everyone thought were on this. I have every stock part that has ever came off my car (less catback and brake lines) and I cant make up my mind if I should get rid of it or keep it. I will never go back to stock but its kinda cool having this stuff.
    Heres a short list of things replaced by the last owner before he even drove the car. This stuff is NEW my guess is under 50 judging by the spark plugs.
    Throttle and plenum with gaskets, exhaust manifolds with gaskets, pulley guard, spark plugs (Yep the freak'n spark plugs are in a box), shifter, idlers and supercharger pulley, bolts from the IRS and diff cover. Some other bolts that look like they are for the shifter, Quadrent with springs and adjuster (Not broke and no wear on it), firewall adjuster (It has a slice down the middle to get it off but I have the gasket).
    So what are you other guys doing? Do you have boxes of stock parts to put your car back to numbers matching in 30 years or did you sell what you could?

    I have some stock parts but sold most anything of any value.

    I don't plan on keeping my car until the value starts to increase again so when I sell it I am selling it as it sits.

    I have ever single part I have ever removed from my car and will never part with them. I plan to also never sell my car. I've actually started collecting hard to find 94-95 specific parts in the hope that if I ever need them someday, I'll have them.
