Parts Goldmine.....

Hi guys. I hit the jackpot on parts yesterday. Found this little out of the way junkyard near home and stopped to take a look. They have probably 10-12 Camaros ranging from base to IROC, all years. I picked up: 2 MINT dashpads (one for my '83 and one for the wife's '92), a perfect correct '83 z28 hood, turn signal/cruise/wiper switch, front driver's fender, mint console window/hatch switches, '88 IROC guage cluster, brake proportioning block, mint washer resevoir, and the two front plastic grilles for my '83. Total cost.....$125.00! Life is good! Plenty of parts, let me know if you're looking for anything in particular.

Answers (Some):

NuffZ: Off of hwy 220 near Candor, NC. Called 'Smash Palace' Phone #910-974-9691. Warning though if you've seen 'Deliverance' ........I could hear the Banjos when I pulled up.

Fyre: Would you believe only 1 Firefird? Not sure, but looked to be about an '87-89 T/A.

Adam: Not sure about the other stuff, but the gas gauge is there.

Doh! Anything worth salvaging? Does it have a black interior?

edit: specifically I need the panels in the back beside the rear seats that go over the "hump" and hold the sail panel/speaker cover things. Dunno what they're called. I've yet to find one in black.

Well, the car's all there, but I didn't look at it too closely, just in passing. Don't remember what color the interior was. Quarter trim panels are what you're looking for, but those should be the same for a Camaro or a Firebird, No? Just find a black Int. Camaro and have at it.

Well, I've got to go back up there to pull the rear out of an IROC for my car (you know disc brakes and all.....sweet) but I don't know when I'll get there. Touch base with me.

I'd take a tach from an IROC (or any V8 Camaro). Let me know how much and how much to ship. I can Paypal it to you.
