Junkyard Scores!
« on: September 02, 2006 - 10:00:22 AM »
Hey guys,

Just wanted to give a tip to anyone in this area. I have a yard that I go to now and again that has a couple of good parts left for E bodies. Not really much sheet metal, but some this and that.

Back glass - perfect - 3 Challenger, 73 1 Barracuda
perfect quarter glass, sideglass, even a windhield or two.

I scored a perfect Challenger vintage dash for...I'm not gonna say, It's embarassing.... No cracks!!!

I bought an Original hardtop roof- off of an original 340 column shift 340 car. clean - Now mine.

I'll post some pics.

No, I wish it was 75. It's more, but it still makes it worthwhile! It's mint.

I'll be going back in 2 weeks. I am going out to SoCal next week. Any recommendations for yards out there to visit?
