I have already been scouting for what parts to get where and it's a long list. Me and a buddy are staring to buy/resale with him as the financial backer.

Bought a trans last week, sold today for $1,650. Tomorrow will be going to a smaller junkyard I scouted Monday and should be leaving with at least one truckload of stuff, I estinate resale profit in the $8,000 range for everything I scouted.

Thats a pretty dang good profit. I need to head by up to my local yard and check put the trucks for hydroboost. I may not be able to put it in just yet but getting the parts together might get me motivated.

I got 2 Hydroboost setups today (hint-hint Dylan), a full factory 97 460 MAF setup (SUPER rae as it's California 97 ONLY), a 67-72 "Contractor Special" behind the set storage box that goes in place of the fuel tank, Stainless Tri-y headers for 429-460. Will go back for more after funds recooperate some.

As nice as it would be to have, 150 is too much for me.

I'll be going to Tumwater P&P Wednesday and maybe Nisqually Autowrecking, anyone is more than welcome to come along or meet with me if they like.

Anyone else going anywhere?

Stomburg, I sent you a couple PMs as I have been up north since yesterday morning, heading home very shortly.

Went to Arlington P&P today and NW Auto Wrecking, there is a Taco Truck in the parking lot at NW that is good.

Went to Nisqually Auto Wrecking Thursday and though they were having issues with their computer system I got out the door for reasonable prices.

Tried going to 3 places by Shelton listed as Auto Wreckers but 2 are Scrap only (don't sell parts) and the 3rd was out of business.

Tried going to Empire Auto Parts and they are out of business, eviction notice on their door.

If anyone wants me to find parts for them let me know.

Also if you feel like doing me a huge favor you could junmp on Row52 and give me a good review as a Parts Puller, the more reviews I have the closer to the top of the list it puts me for people to see.

Row52 user name FullTimePuller

Thanks.

by now you probably figured it out. kind of a pita. it is held in with 9mm nuts and sealed with foam core butyl tape. i have replace about a hundred of this type of window. Ranger and F-series have this design. Explorer quarter glass are bolted in the same way also. the interior trim is in the way which is what makes it so difficult.

Scored at Lynwood P&P today.

Got D0VE-C heads that are very low mile on rebuild with new valves, springs, Manley guide plates, aluminum roller rockers, studs, ARP head studs and exhaust studs, Isky cam and lifters. Also a Jacobs ignition and some parts for Blackjack33.
