    I wasn't busy today so I headed down yonder 94 miles to Pipersville, PA. This is not a u-pull-it yard. I told the guy I just wanted some small parts and he said go ahead. I mostly wanted a center arm rest. Most of the stuff he pulled and has in storage. He has the whole front end. He just sold the hood for $500 to "one of you guys". He knows about our "car club".









    I got the center arm rest. It's a little dirty, but in great shape and sooooo soft compared to mine. I got the fuel door with a key, rear defrost and heated mirror switches, a couple switch blanks, and some cladding screws.

    He asked what I wanted to pay for this stuff and I said $50. That's probably a little too much, but I was very happy to get the arm rest.



    I checked the VIN and it used to belong to one of our original members here, jeffkics from Bethlehem, PA, which is not far away.

    The two front seats are in the back. They're plenty dirty, but look undamaged. I wouldn't pay much over $50 each since they've been outside the whole time. The rear side cladding pieces look good. This yard is on the search linked above in the first post, so you can check for other stuff he has stored.
