First Kit parts for sale?
 

It seems FIRST has sold some of their excess kit parts to a surplus compnay. I noticed an ad for them in Nuts And Volts.

They have:
windows motors and couplers
fisher price motors and couplers
the old rotating lights
can door motors <edit> err... van door
the old drill motors w/mounts
seat motors w/flexi shaft
skyway wheels
I might have missed something

I'm thinking of getting either some FPs or van door motors to build a small robot.

I'm surprised FIRST didn't offer to sell them to FIRST teams before doing the surplus sale. I'm sure there's a few things FIRST teams would love to have extra of just in case, if not for a side project.

Thanks for the find. I'll be doing a little shopping myself.

I've got to get me some of those gisher price and can door motors. :D And maybe osmething else too!

YESSSS now my cans can finally have that can door motor they need. :)
This could be a new venture for FIRST, many teams could buy extra stuff and it is also a way to introduce other people to FIRST.
