Title: Today's Junkyard scores.
Post by: CougarSE on November 18, 2006, 09:31:47 PM
Got a few parts for some of you guys!

First up, Heritage parts.  These of course have been claimed, can you guess who?

These Heritage parts have not actually been claimed.

I took one of those factory alarm lights from an '84 TC about seven years ago. I was a fool to leave it in my '88 XR7 when I sold it.

Here's what I scored today at my local boneyard. I found them on an old Escort EXP. While the covers are in terrible condition, the housings and inner guts have almost no rust.
I got them with the covers for $15.
:D

I love those Boneyard scores !!! You made a great haul with some very wanted pieces.I know where 3 or 4 'Birds are,one '87 TC,and the others are 4 eyed Birds.The yard keeps them locked up,but he does sell the parts from them.I need to start paying closer attention to the 4 eyed cars. I did get 5 electric fans,all the switches from a Mark VII (same as our cars),2 IAC's,a set of roller lifters (like new),two sets of the black valve covers like the Cobras had,minus the Cobra lettering,2 5.0 distributors,a Holley carb (no need for it,but it was there),another 3G alternator (newly installed on the car before I pulled it),a handful of different sensors,hood to cowl seals (2),and a hood to header panel seal,2 1985 T-Bird rear side windows,the inner and outer window mouldings (dew wipes) for an '87 T-Bird,and a tub that screws into the area where the space saver tire goes for storing stuff.I'd never seen that before so i snagged it.It sits in the garage now.I got everything for a little less than $50.00.I saw a 5.0 truck lower,but didn't get it.I think a Trick Flow upper will fit it.I may go back for it.Again,I love this stuff !!!!

I will gladly take those windows and C-Pillar lights off your hands, if you want to let the go. Just let me know what you want for them. I could take a day next weekend and pick them up.

Nice.  Those covers are actually in nicer shape than mine were before I  had them painted.  I just need to spend a little time with the white paint.  I'd really like to find some of the older white covers though...

Yes...Indiana yards suck....that's why I do pretty much all of my parts hunting online...there are NO good local yards...

I need to start hunting, there are four here in town, 2 86 Cougars and one 83. I own one of the 86s and bought wheels off of the other. There is a HUGE yard in Western KS that I need to check out. I spotted 3 Four-eyed Cougars just driving by on the interstate.
