Keep or scrap?

[willys54]

Sifting through all the parts stuffed into a 1941 Champion I recently purchased from the estate of a deceased Stude Hoarder, I found a complete (dry stored) OHV 6 rocker arm assy. with mounting bolts & nice valve cover presumably from a Lark. Should I keep or scrap?.........I know it's a broad/subjective question but if their a dime a dozen I'd rather not store them. Thanks for any input you guy's can provide.

I’d say put it up for sale. There’s plenty of late 6 owners out there and one migt need just what you’ve got!

Aren't the rockers the same as a late V8, or is that push rods only? There's more demand for V8 parts obviously

Thanks for your input. My better instinct was to keep them and try to sell them but shipping cost may exceed the value. As a car guy I hate the thought of tossing something someone else in the hobby may be able to use.

I suggest the mods create a new sub forum called "pay it forward classifieds". I have disposed of a lot of good parts (I HATE throwing away good parts) that were no particularly valuable by posting them for free..... just pay actual shipping. No, you aren't going to make any $$$, but you will be helping out a fellow car hobbyist. And you would be surprised how many guys come to your aid when YOU need some help.

No need for that - you can just use the existing For Sale / Want channel and select the “Free” topic header.

I have been selling my late father's tools, parts, and equipment and I have given up predicting what people want/need/will pay for. I have been throwing things up on FB marketplace, Craigslist, and E-bay and just waiting to see what happens. Just about everything goes eventually. Stuff that does not sell in a year or so gets put on FB or Craigslist for free or scrapped. While my mother is not getting rich off this it is better than she would do if we scrapped it. However it does take some time.

"Keep or Scrap"...sounds like that could be a new thread topic!
