junkyards
the ***holes at the junkyard wont let me in because you have to be at least 18. i didnt believe that they would actually ask for my age. AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. man i was mad. anyway anyone going to a juckyard that lives close to me want to pick me up a dash pad for a transam? doesn't need to be perfect...can even have cracks in it. ill pay you for the trouble and the cost but i am on a very limited (parental
) budget. im going to recover it. i was working on mine until my mom decided that she needed to get stuff out of the garage for my sister graduation and left it under the tire of my dads car. totaled.

Sounds like a worthwhile cause to me.
P.S. I have never seen them card anyone at an Inland Empire Junkyard either.
i think i may need to move then. i went to pick a part and pick your part and a couple others and got carded everywhere. i probably will just get one of my older friends to do it for me. how much do dash pads go for at junkyards anyway. and hell no im not a red neck, more like mexican.

I went to ecology in willmington today and saw a blue 91 with a decent dashpad I was gonna pull it for myself because I recently purchased one on ebay with two small tears...however the one in the 91 has one maybe 6 inch crack on the left side near the winshield, other than that its perfect.

i went to the ecology in buena park a couple of times... i got my t/a taillights there. anyway, i was like 16 at the time and i didnt have any problems. which yards did u say u went to? just to throw this out, i wouldnt reccomend the one i went to.... people say that its the most used lot, and most of the thirdgens i saw there were just about stripped to the bone, except for an iron duke 'bird, and the bird that had the taillights i scored.

An Ecology Auto Parts yard in Buena Park? News to me. Someone should tell Ecology that they have a yard in Buena Park so they can include it along with the 9 other locations they advertise. BTW, Saturday July 19th is Ecology Auto Parts next "Half-Off Sale".

Go to ecoparts.com its ecology's website. Willmington is off the 405 around Long Beach...I live in LA near hollywood so I'm not really sure of the areas down south. I just looked up their address on mapquest. The address is on their website. From me its just 405 south exit Willmington to the right and take a left on Lomita.

Hahaha...funny....I'm just saying how LA is so big and down south there are al this little suburbs and what not that I really wouldn't be able to tell you very well. I know the greater LA area fairly well.
