Letting the customers pick thier own parts is the ONLY way to go for most things, even if I need help GETTING the part once I have picked it
I just went for a run through my first salvage yard... I saw an old monte SS, 2 old VW Beetles, a chevy VEGA (it could be easily restored from the looks of it, paint is shot but the glass and body look to be perfect otherwise.. not sure on the drive train.) Plenty of fire birds/TAs and Camaros, a good amount trashed mustangs, and a few old school bonnies (complete trashed though) couldent find what I was looking for though. a drivers side front fender for a 92 LeSabre.... plenty of Park Avanues though
I wanna go through there again.
How much would a restored vega be worth any ways? (IE would it be worth it? it looks like a nice little car though could probably hold an l67 at least)

Guys/gals, in all your browsing, keep a sharp eye out for SSEi'*. On average, only about 5000 a year are built (refer to Techinfo, Specifications to see how small this number really is).
They're hard to find, and alot of members may benefit from it.

I wouldn't mind the top piece of the door (as before), as well as the handle piece that goes around the sideview mirror control (mine'* kinda busted).
Thanks
On the topic of the rare 40th editions, there'* this one that pays a visit to a house down my street now and then. this colour, it'* an SE with leather and one missing (pass.-side) foglight. Complete with C-pillar badges.
