Junk yard good and bad
Visited a J-Yard this weekend in hopes of locating Intake parts for the
late style 73 intake (post epa slap) Found several 73's and the hopes were high. Every one of them had the early style! GRRR Grabbed the parts, but was hoping to get the vacume/temp switches. Great yard with 40's to 70's only cars, but what were the chances that not one of the 73's had the EPA corrected intake setup. Did grab real nice throttle Cable, and and few other parts. Was looking for Gauge sending units. Looked at about 50 old pontiacs and not one with gauges. The Yard was like pulling up to a Norman Rockwell painting. Yard is really in the backwoods of N.E. PA and i suspect all the Cars were from Farmers that could care less about options on thier rides, but was really cool. Old Mercs, Studabakers, Edsels, and a few i never heard of, but i was disapointed that with all the possible doners, none had the parts i really needed. My Car actually has the Block heater Option. No luck on that either. |
