Are any of these worth anything? I might keep some of the parts for my budget "vintage-y" fixie project. I still don't know a whole lot about parts yet...trying to learn...

^Louie. Lost dog that chased me down the street this morning while I was riding. Luckily, found the owners 20 minutes later...

The 3ttt stem and Cinelli bars are worth selling, as is the Stronglight crankset (model 49D maybe?) and bottom bracket.

Looked in the C&V WTB thread, cudak888 is looking for one of those bars(post 2242), cheaper than the $100 they go for on ebay (in great shape)

The pedals I'm not familiar with. Could Iberia = Zeus? If so, maybe some value there, too.

Agree with your assessment so far. There were several Spanish component makers besides Zeus, including Iberia and Triplex. Zeus was the best known and had the widest product range. Triplex and Iberia mostly served the entry level to midrange market.

BTW, the brake levers look like Universal. Universal hoods were notorious for rapid decay, so most of the levers you see these days are bare or have 3rd party hoods.

I suggest asking a moderator to move this to Classic & Vintage (Main or Appraisal) forum for better answers.
