Am I being a pack rat?
 
I am sending the 300D parts car to the scrap yard next week, and would like to pull parts that may come in handy in the future for my daily driver.

I am mostly thinking in terms of electrical/climate control stuff. (the motor and trans/rear end are on the way out today.

So far my self genereated list is:

windsheld wiper motor/assembely
gages
all switches
blower motor
fuses
Brake booster

What about the relay switches? do they fail, or am I wasting my time thinking of all this stuff.
Driveshaft?
A/C stuff?

May be I am being a pack rat, but they dont make this stuff any more, and I usually regret tossing some thing out only to have and pay $$ for it later.

I would definitely keep those cause when something does go wrong with your car you will say to yourself..."Damn, I should have kept that part." Take out your bulb socket holders from the back too just in case so you have a spare as well. Take your glow plug relay, corner lights, headlights, keep a front and a rear window motor, front and rear window regulator, at least one inside door handle, the dome light, glove box door ETC.
