Some yards really do suck. Called one up for a door handle - they said they have a few Marks+Conti's.

2 weeks (I know) later I go, and almost ALL their inventory is gone. Closest thing they have to a Mark8 is a 94 Cougar :rolleyes:. He claims the door handle should fit. Told me to look at a Crown Victoria handle.

Friggen people....

First let me say: Welcome to LVC MarkAte!!

That is how it is, and when you do find the piece you want - they know the value and want to charge you $$$$ for it!!!

When I go out of town (job sends me around) that is the first thing I do, get the closest junk yards and hit em up to see what they have - lol yeah, I do it on vacation too.

Keep looking, also have you looked/posted in the parts forum? You probably know this, but your directionals are going the wrong direction - your moons won't be aligned until you get that taken care of..lol :D

Smooches!
