Dec 2009 Donor car

Bought myself a donor car. It's a 1984 toyota corolla AE71 5speed rear wheel drive. Cost $450

From this car i took out:
the T50 rear wheel drive gearbox which is a direct bolt-on transmission for my blacktop 20v 4AGE 
The prop shaft
Starter motor
Wiper motors
Steering column
clutch
flywheel
$30 worth of fuel which went in my car
Sold the seatbelts to someone in eastern states $30
Sold a number of items to a local corolla lover for $100 (rear bumper, boot lock, spare wheel and holder, radiator, cowl and fan.
Cashed in the Rego (that's road tax for international readers) for a cool $204
Sold the remainder of the car for $250 to someone who wanted the engine

So after all that, i got all the bits i needed from the car and i made about $250 profit! Awesome!!!!
