Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast		OK, I adopted an Eclipse that was partially disassembled and needs some attention. The body and neck are dirty, but in very good condition; will clean up nice. But the pups were loose, busted bridge pup plastic ring, no pick guard and a 1/4" plug broke off in the jack. Also the tailpiece has a name etched in the base plate.

Options:

-Try to locate parts and rehab
-Sell as project
-Break it down for back up spare parts
-Sell parts to recoup part of the purchase price

What would you do?
