Top 10 Used Items on Pelican?

Hi all. I'm running an informal poll. I'm thinking about getting into the used Porsche parts biz, and I'd really like to use the Pelican BBS as my main selling vehicle, as opposed to exclusively eBay. So, since I've only been on the list for about 6 mos., I haven't seen all the trends come and go. What do you think the most popular and "saleable" items are these days? Here's my list (In no particular order)

1. 3.0-3.2 Engines
2. Early (Pre-74) Factory Exhausts
3. Ducktails/Spoilers
4. SC Flares
5. 11 Blade Fans
6. Early Fenders/Hoods
7. Non-cracked Dashboards
8. Early "S" Accessories
9. Headlight upgrades
10. Performance Suspension Stuff (Torsion bars, etc...)


I would LOVE to see your top 10 lists...especially those of you that have been here for a while. Also, anything you think rarely ever sells. (Assuming it's in good condition)

Thanks much, and hopefully soon I'll be able to get you guys great stuff at great prices.

Yeah, and targa bottoms too! Sorry, couldn't resist. Seriously though, what about visors, door pocket covers and airbox covers.
