Bought a 75 Newport What should I keep before crushing

Well I reckon there's been a few good novelty ideas out there but I already have a nice big pig cooker and no room nor time to do a mancave couch.  I guess the rear seat would be the appropriate one for that to use  ;) though. After I get it home I'll look into saving some of the electrical motors and trim maybe.  The more I can sell off it the less I'll have in the motor.  Hope no bad surprises are found in the trunk  :eek2:  I realise a fair amount of people would like to see it saved and if I found somebody wanting it minus what I bought it for, I would be willing to turn it over to them but really it's just a big ole 4 dr boat of car with not much of a collector following that I'm aware of.  Certainly there's no appeal for me in it.  Now back to the original question,  are there any other ideas about what may be worthwhile to save for future upgrade use/conversion to a B Body?  The disc brake setup may be something to look into.

What rear is in that thing? Some of these old boats were bought to tow with & it could be a sure grip.
Looked at the rear today.  not sure what it is but has about a 10 bolt cover on the back.

     Steering box? Heater motor switch probably has a different lever but the guts might be the same.
