Well guys just wanted to share some GOOD LUCK finally. Saturday I went to a salvage of sorts with my brother-in-law I was hopeing to find a drivers-side scuffplate, he was looking for a 283 chevy. Well he found his motor complete with genarator and all just what he wanted $ 50.00 not bad. Next it was off to the woods looking for scuffplates. He showed me about 4 or 5 slickes scatterd all over the place but no scuffplates, but I was kind of used to that. Then he said he thought he had 1 more, of course it was across the creek through the mudbog and around the pond-dam. But it was worth it tics and all. When I opend the door the clouds parted and the sun shined down blining me with the relection off of scuffplates and trim everywhere. The slick-gods were smileing on me that day. All I had was $ 31.00 so I gave him that and told him to stop me when I got $ 31.00 worth of stuff. He never said anything so I never stoped until I had everything that was any good, he even jumped in and helped. Not a bad day !!!! Oh and wile I was there a couple of cars caught my eye a 1968 fairlane 500 fastback 390 car, and a 1970 or 71 torino cobra he said it had a 429 but it was gone. I plan on going back SOON to further investagate. Well I just wanted to share some good fortune. SMOLDO
I will try and add a pictuer of the loot when I figure out how to.[/img]

Yup junkyard scores are always nice, especially when their cheap. I got some Ram Horn exhast manifolds for my Uni a few years ago for $20.00 They sell for usually $400.00 on evilbay.

Easiest way is to create a personal album here on this site. After that, you can post your own pics within the posts by linking to the photos in your album.

The junkyards SUCK there! They all want to go do it for you, because people used to go in and break stuff, they think all their crap is pure gold, and there's no friendliness to be had...
