Question about starting a parts buisness-want your opin

Hello to all that read this. Here is the story and question that follows. There are several large junkyards in my area that always have a TON of classic 900's in them. Most range from 1985 to 1992. There is also 9000's in them from time to time. The thing about it is that they only keep the cars in there for about a week or so and then it is off to the crusher with whatever is left on them! I had a brain storm when I was there looking last Saturday. Why not pull parts off and sell them to people that need them? I was standing at a 1992 900T that was in showroom condition on the inside. The front end was totalled! I pulled the crack free dash, relays, interior switches and headliner. I also got both head lights and turnsignal housings off an 88 900S. So my big question is do you think that I can actually sell these parts or not? I know how expensive they are to buy new and how long the wait can be to get them. I would try the parts on one of my 900's to ensure that they worked and guarentee them of course. I was thinking of using Ebay to start and maybe post so of the large items here. What do you all think? Has this been done yet and can it be done? I just hate to see these parts get crushed up like that when I know someone can use them. Thanks for your time and opinion.
