Odd stuff I do to keep busy

[Danger06Ranger]

Lately, since my axle is being welded up, I've been doing odd stuff to keep busy. First off, I wouldn't have any of these if people weren't so stupid, so thank you stupid people. Now, back to the point. I go to the Pick-N-Pull to get parts, thats where I found these. I grabbed a taillight and the gauge cluster out of a 1963 Ford Fairlane, and the gauge trim and driverside taillight from a 1980 Pontiac Firebird Formula, complete with fuel door and decor panel. Basically I restore this stuff in my spare time. Now for pics.

Nice. Is that the gauges before or after?

After, did them a while ago. They need to be cleaned.

How much do you make buying the part vs selling it?

Depends on the part. I paid $10 for the Firebird Taillight, and the fuel door is N/A pretty much anywhere so I can sell that alone for at least $50. The gauges, $50-$75. Like I said, it all depends.
