Any good junkyard finds lately?? - sassparilla_kid - 08-24-2012

Had a pretty good day at the junkyard today, despite it being like 100*F out and not finding any of the stuff I went there for, still made out okay. Managed to score a set of euro w124 headlamps with clear corners, and a single round H4 lamp that I'm sure I can find a use for. Also found a couple w123's with very good condition brown interior that I may go back for, a w115 220D with red interior, and a bunch of other neat stuff.

Thought I was about to score a 5 speed out of a w123 240D or 300D N/A (can't remember what it was exactly) but it just ended up being a 4 speed that somebody put a 5 speed shifter on, since I could only shift it into 1,2,3,4, and reverse.

Anyway, just wondering if anybody else has had any good finds at the junkyard lately??

No real junk yards on Long Island. Everyone just drives new nissan maximas. H8 ERR1 HERE!

Hit the yard yesterday in Georgia. A looonnng 180 mile round trip.

Got ANOTHER 25mm sway bar from a wagon and I got a PRISTINE Palamino passenger seat, 6-pleats. When I say pristine, I mean too good to be true. I am waiting for some sort of insect swarm to pop out of it and invest my garage ...LOL.

Well, there's a W123 coupe near me with something rare: a rear window which has not delaminated. The yard wants under $100 for it too. But I have no place to store it.
