What can I salvage??? Parts Car for someone else??? 200 1989

Hi all....

Today I bought a 1989 244DL to replace my "totaled" 84 244DL. The 84 was a victim of a hit and run accident and my insurance company cut me a check for the value of the car prior to the accident. I still have the 84 and I'm wanting to save as many parts from it for spares for the 89. Can anyone help me with parts I should save from the 84 before I lay her to rest in the boneyard???? I know I can save the AMM, the AIC and the external fuel pump and filter. Are there any relays that are the same? Any other parts that I should save???

I would love to pull the whole engine out and keep it as the engine is in awesome condition. It's got around 175k miles on it and I just drove the car from Ohio to Texas last month in one day without any quirks or hesitations from the engine. Unfortunately I don't have the storage space to keep the engine.

Maybe I should try to sell the car as is for a parts car?? I really hate to send the old girl to the boneyard as the engine and drivetrain have plenty of years left on them. But I don't know what the demand would be for this engine and tranny combo.

Help me out here....

thanks
