Default '85 240 rear ended - parts car Austin, TX

One of my Volvos was rear-ended and is headed for the scrap yard. 190K. If anyone is interested in it, they can have it for the scrap value. It is in excellent mechanical shape. Good tires, engine, transmission, etc. It may be 'drivable'. The rear fender is rubbing slightly on the tire. It's at the insurance companies storage lot and will have to be taken soon.
I would like to take the glove box, fuse cover, battery, expansion tank and fuel sender.
It would be nice if someone can make use of it rather than scrap steel.

The tranny is an AW70.
No more pictures. The car is being held at the scrap yard. I will be pulling some parts and sending it to its grave this week unless someone wants it. Tranny is in good shape. Just replaced rear bearing and rear housing. OD works fine.
I really hate to see a good engine, tranny, wheels/tire, etc go to the grave but I don't have a place to store it or a recipient vehicle. My other Volvo is also in good mechanical shape.
