I think they charge $20 for full interior carpeting, so it should be less than that.  Probably $10 or $15.  If you need, I can pick it up and hold on to it until you're sure your good on funds.


That would be great, I should be fine on funds~Just want to make sure.

the trunk loners I shipped are a little smaller but it was like $12 to shipped shrink wrapped. On a side note I shipped a lower arm rest for an 88 TC yesterday UPS wanted $28. shipped gorund and the Post office shipped it Priority mail for $13. Check around, don't let brown do you, lol


Yea... UPS has really gotten expensive (Or USPS has gotten cheaper?)

Trinom, I haven't forgotten about you.  I don't plan on going back to that yard anytime soon.  I also looked for the buttstuffog clock for your buddy and didn't find it, sorry.
That's OK, but if you will go to this yard again, can you grab parts I listed earlier, pls? And I remembered one more thing - day - night mirror :)

Thanks :burnout:

I haven't forgotten about the wants and needs from my j-yard trip.  Between travel for work and the 14" or so of global warming we got this past weekend and now another 8-12" coming its been kinda rough.  However, ill post up some pics of cars i found when i was in Maine last week (not t-birds or cougars, but still some cool finds)

Trinom, I can grab those parts for you at the local yard that I usually go to.  Just so I don't get stuck with the parts, have you already priced what shipping is going to be out to you?

I know, shipping is a small problem, but I know the solution. My friend has a small company in US and he has some containers, so few more parts is no problem for him.

Scored some sunroof visors, a beautiful 88(Round) horn button, and a pretty decent sunroof shade today, too bad I didn't bring the right tools for the stuff I really went for! There was a pair of 94-95 Spindles there, but I couldn't think of anyone who still needed them. Pics later!

You know, I keep PM'ing you leads, but you never get back to me, so it's hard to tell. One side was complete but rusty(Surface), and the other side needed everything(Including the hub). Would you be interested in the BARE spindles?

Sorry about that, And thanks for the leads.

Well I could work with Bare Spindles... But I'd probably rather not unless the price was pretty cheap, lol.

And do you know if the 'stang had the Dash Cluster? Watchdevils been trying to get one.

I will be heading back to the salvage yard early next week if anybody needs me to pick them up anything from the cars I posted.

Dragon574444, there are a ton of hubcap cars out there if you can't find any local and need some.
