Junk Yard Trips

Did a junk yard trip yesterday and here are some pics. Didn't really
find anything that exciting.
<P>First the funny stuff.

<BR>If you look clse you can see the 2nd gen spoiler bondo'ed into the
trucks roof NASCAR style.
<P><IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/bondo.jpg">
<BR>Look at the chunk of bondo that fell out of that hole??? still was
a big hunk left.

<BR>Little bit of dirt but in good shape.
<P><IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/P1010039.jpg"

>
<BR>Good black back.
<P><IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/P1010037.jpg"

>
<BR>Some blue tweed bottom in real nice shape. They rip so easy.
<P><IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/P1010033.jpg"

<BR>An almost nice whole set except for some cig burns in the seat bottoms.

><IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/P1010027.jpg">
<IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/P1010029.jpg">
<BR>3 engines from complete to almost bare. Gonna see if I can get one
of them whole for $50.
<BR>&nbsp;

><IMG SRC="http://www.viragotech.com/P1010043.jpg">
<P>Ok what I really wanted to know is what is this car???
<BR>Never seen one and I could not find one marking that tells.
<BR>Looks like it had one hell of a back window almost like a rivi.
<P>Matt

Not a rustang. I was thinking because of the rear 1/4 windows, possibly late 60's, early 70's t-bird.

Matt, what kind of digital camera do you have? Looks like you're loving that one! My Mustek DV3000 is nice, but it doesn't have a flash (was meant to be a little digital video camera), and I'm thinking of buying a camera with a flash.

[edit] Looked at the Sony P72 Cybershot during lunch... so tempting... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=30011

Its not mine but I use it most of the time. It my Grannies. After speding lots of time searching user reviews The best cam at the time under $300 buck was the Olympus D-380 2.0 mega pixl, they got more pilx cams out but it is not needed. I only take HQ photo's 1024x768 and it has 2 higher settings, it has a nice zoom and tons of features. its also easy on the battries which was the biggest gripe with most other cams that were out and on sale this past christmas.

I think that's what I have. Pretty tough little camera, it survived Iraq! I think I'm a little dirty....

Do you mean the 2.8 engine or the country-defending engine (Black'86)?
