Score!
Just got back from the yard, and they got in yet another '83 bird.


Take some pics next time you go and let us know what good parts might be left. 83-84 stuff is getting harder and harder to find...at least here it is.

I should be heading back down this weekend, Looks like someone restoring a bird hit up already, As various odd and ends are already taken.
It's a light/baby blue (light academy blue?) with light blue'ish interior~V6 Auto AOD

I was pulling the spark plug wires and one seemed to be melted to the plug. :wtf:
And it has terrible rust... On the underside of the trunklid...

One of the neat things about the car though is that it only weighs 4200 pounds due to lack of options, Even Has manual windows but is missing the s/handles.

It's only going to weigh 4200# if it has an extra 1000# of bodies stashed in the trunk.

LoL, Maybe thats why the trunk was so rusty...
But yea... I dunno where 4200 came from, Think i've been fixing moms caravan too much. :hick:

Actually thats one thing that wasn't manual, The rearview mirrors. :hick:
But the console plate is trashed, I was gonna get it but the entire metal decal is peeled/pulled up and bent as well as scratched up.
And someone was going for the bulb out of the light in the compartment or something (all the lights in the car were taken... even the tailight bulbs) and instead of taking the time to undo 2 screws, they just yanked the console plate and actually tweaked and broke the screw-tabs.
