Parting out mint '87 TC. Anyone need conversion parts?

This is the official 'part out' thread! I scored on this beauty with the intent of turning it over for a small profit however, the State of California had different ideas! I thought the paperwork was gonna be fairly straightforward (I've done this a million times). Oh....how wrong I was! The car needs a clutch and the E6 is cracked in half but other than that it's in great condition! Between the required paperwork and repairs, it was gonna be cost prohibitive to turn it over so I decided to part it out. Everything.....and I mean everything is for sale! I've already sold a couple of chunks of rear quarter panel. This beauty is gonna live on in the Turbo Coupe world! On to the particulars................

1987 TC with the raven interior. 5-spd w/3.55 rear. This is a rust free California car that was owned since the early 90's by a middle aged woman. Judging by the condition of the paint and interior I have to surmise this was a garaged car. Whenever there was any problem, she took it to a shop to get repaired. Everything works on this car. Lights, switches, buzzers, chimes, dual power seats and windows are quick and crisp. Motor has 209K but fires on the first kick and runs smooth. A little blue smoke out of the tailpipes is standard on a high mileage motor. Here's a quick video I made of the motor running (disregard the yellow vac line)............
