especially when they have a 50% off everything day

93 engine assy with a near perfect oil pan (no rust. just a couple slight dents from when they put the car on the stands.) took just over 2 hours to pull out the top on my back with only hand tools. much easier than i expected.

alternator, starter, front height sensors and brackets, radiator and cooling fan.

also grabbed an ecu, ignition module, and ecu relay for a diamante.

Seriously do you have any plans?

They dont have any pick and pulls around us anymore. People kept just throwing the parts they needed over the fence and picking them up after dark. A couple bad apples ruined it for everyone.

lot of the junkyards around here are selling all their old stuff for scrap-chinese are paying so much for metal-i went to one yard I have gone to for 20+ years looking for stuff, almost everything was gone-owner said he's getting so much it isn't worth hanging on to it. I could walk around his yard for hours, last time i took one look, then drove almost 50 miles to another one and it was almost empty too-depressing.
