Good Boneyard Day

I went to the local "pick-n-pull" yard here in SA to see what was new. I had already "tagged" the ones that I had seen before, so I knew not to waste my time eyeballing them. I was on the last row of Pontiacs, when I saw a '91 Formula that I hadn't tagged yet.

I found the GTA style spoiler in great condition still on the deck lid and all of the Formula rims were still on the car. I needed a front and rear rim to complete the half set that I have at home. Only a rear one was worth saving, the other three were pretty well toasted. So I'm down to just one more front rim to find.

I got the wing for $22.00 and the rim for $25.00. I had been hunting the wing in a boneyard for about 3 years now.

Still looking for the JG1 score too.

Jim.

You suck!

(I just left Austin)

I'm kidding. That's always good to hear.

Me? I'm waiting for that tan interior junk to arrive at the salvage yard here in the Bay. I need cup holders on both sides (door mounted) and trim for the rear seat belts.

Keep the faith.
