Found in a wrecking yard

Just thought I would pass this on in case anyone is looking for parts. There's three 3rd gens sitting in the wrecking yard out in machias. One is a Z28, one is a berlinetta, and I'm not sure on the other...IIRC they all have the third brake light on the hatch.

Re: Found in a wrecking yard

It's about a 45 minute drive from my house. I usually try to leave real early for work and stop there on the drive in. So far I have not seen a tpi car there yet, they all have been tbi or carb'd. I will keep a look out for what you need tho.

There's an 86 (I think) IROC with the TPI there. I would have pulled the dizzy for you, but I didn't have enough $$$. I sent you a PM about it too

I pulled it and sold it a couple weeks ago. That yard seems to get third gens quite often, I will keep a lookout for another one.
