Todd, use the 50% rule. That is use the number from the vehicle that
contributes the majority of the parts. For convenience use the by weight
factor. In other words, the tub weighs less than the
engine/frame/suspension so use that number. Be sure to surrender the other
number with the other set of parts when you turn it in to the junkyard.
Be sure to disclose to the buyer the extent of parts replacement when you
sell.

Why not? Throw in some TR6 parts and you can call it a TR3.524.
