Hi Tom, welcome. Are you relocated here, or just visiting from Chicago?

I spoke with a guy at the cafe who said his handle was toomanyfords, or toomanytrucks. I can't remember for sure now. Was that you?

I don't think the salvage yards here are too good for old parts. Pretty much picked over I would guess. Your best bet for info is a user called numberdummy, real name Bill. He will probably find your thread soon. Unfortunately you cannot private message yet until you have 25 or more posts. Bill has a pretty good idea of what's available and helps us all with part numbers on the old stuff. You can go to his profile and guest message to get his attention.
