What to keep?

I have a 1984 F150, l6, 4 spd, 4 x 4 pickup. Come spring, I will have a 1986 Bronco, v8, auto. As I have n place to store the Bronce long term, nor money to have two trucks on the road, what should I keep from the Bronco? So far I am thinking of keeping the hood, fenders, doors, bumpers, dash asembly, and rims. Anything else I should consider?

Is your truck in need of anything from the Bronco? If not I would just sell the Bronco as whole as it now.

Turn signal switch
Windshield washer pump, wiper motor (and maybe the wiper transmission)
Rear tail light lenses, replace yours if there's not 84-TK molded into the numbers
HVAC controls (if non-AC)
Parking brake cables (maybe, depends on condition)
Front brake calipers ( if same as yours unless the bleeder screws are frozen in)
Starter solenoid

There are things my truck needs, which is why I inquired about it. I would not sell the bronco, as it has set for many years. Thank you for the additional parts to see about keeping. If I had the means, I would love to fix up the truck and keep it. The body is decent for what I have seen soo far, and the interior manly needs deodorizor.
