Good deal, saves me a trip.

It's great when the community can come together like this to get a part out of the junkyard for someone. I can't think of another group of car enthusiasts on the internet willing to undertake such an operation. Maybe harvester people, but I've never seen it. You guys are great.

Don't know exact year but has the bar for razor grill. It is a sort of copper brown.

That is awesome. If anyone needs anything in Arizona tell me and it will get done.

I happy to help and to save as many parts as I can from the crusher.

Has anyone successfully removed a windshield? Mine isn't cracked but the lamination has gone white/bubbley at the bottom. Maybe someone could give me a hand pulling it?

It has an unbroken windshield? Holy crap. What a unicorn.

Speaking of storing stuff, do any of you Colorado folks want my 70's hood? Metal is straight and in great shape. Paint is good. I hate to crush it but it has been sitting here way too long and I am really tired of tripping over it....

I'm doing a razor grill conversion and my existing hood has a good ding in it. I'll want to get it painted but I can take care of that on my own.

Let me know how much you want for it.

It has an unbroken windshield? Holy crap. What a unicorn.

And from what I've read getting them out unbroken is a task.

Having removed some difficult windshields in the past a heat gun is a must.

Hood claimed.

Derf, Can I drop off AZ's bench seat off tomorrow?

Nikkormat, I shot you a PM

[derf]

Not a problem. I'll be at work all day but free in the evening.

[Charles Kline]

Thanks guys, PM's replied to.

Today was an adventure!

I dropped off AZ's seat and window at Derf's place and met up with Nikkormat, we then headed over to the junk yard. On the way there one of the spare tire bracket bolt nuts decided it was going to work itself loose. Thankfully it was the bolt on the slotted side and not the hole side so it stayed attached to the truck and more importantly I didn't have a spare tire on it!

pulled over quickly and got the bracket off. What a noise that was!

So we get to LKQ and started pulling the windshield, somehow it went super smoothly. It was a newer replacement glass, so it was a super score. Thanks again Nikkormat for your help! Next one we find is yours.

I got it up on a shelf until I can find a new black dash pad and replace both at the same time.

Thanks for the adventure Charels!

And thank you for the hood Shimniok! It's just what I need. Hopefully I'll get the engine analyzer running soon too.

[shimniok]

Glad you can use both! No sense having them sitting around here

Just let Derf know your plans on getting it.
