I'm going to be heading to the pic a part next week. Saw some good stuff there today, very GRM. Taking requests, if anyone needs anything. Part price + 50% + shipping. Email iz: Roughandreadyrebuilds@gmail.com

Price list: http://www.rustyspic-a-part.com/index.php/pricing

Stuff I saw today:

Chrome bumper Triumph TR6. Rusty, but mechanically complete. Unilug Wire wheels.

Rubber bumper MG Midget.

Lots of Mercedes W123, a W116, a couple 190E's.

Lots of 80s BMWs, 1 cabrio e30.

Red FC Rx7, later style.

Inventory can be found here (warning, it isn't very accurate. Lists like 3 Mercedes, there's like 9). Feel free to ask me if I saw anything in the yard that you're looking for, I've got a pretty good memory for it.

If that RX-7 is a turbo, grab the transmission, driveshaft and differential and you can probably resell it fairly easily.

Grab the body kit, too, that thing is worth hundreds.

Ditto with the body kit on 325ix E30 BMWs. If one of those is there, let me know, I'll buy it.

Rx7 is a base model. X is awd? I don't think I've ever seen one of those in the flesh. There's an awd 80s Sentra. haha.

325ix is AWD, they can be really fun. The body kit is subtle and looks great, I think.

There are two in this picture, the kit goes over both wheel wells and covers the rocker panel.

Tail lights and license plate center on the RX-7 are probably still worth money, too.

That AWD Sentra is super rare! Not worth much, but rare. I'd rock it.

Looked fine at a glance. The car is pretty nice in general.

Yep if it is a 89+ FC the round outline tail lights with license plate trim usually goes for about $200 last I looked.

There is a 1983 Porsche 944 sitting in the pick-it in Durham. It still has the wheels on it, too.

They just put a Forester out there and I was after a spare set of headlights so I could refinish one, and of course it was a hard front end collision that ruined everything. I was also going to pull some 17" Mazds6 wheels, but they had wheel locks on them.

Total bust on half price weekend so far. I may go back tomorrow with bigger tools.

We've got a 944 too. Back half was on fire at some point. Engine looks good. Can't remember if it had a turbo or not. What did those come with, a KKK? Might be a good replacement for my Mercedes, which came with KKK's for a few years.

Inventory says they have a '83 rx7... I could use any any exterior trim/turn-signal and marker lights. I also could use upper with dshield trim piece, as well as the driver-side exterior a-pillar trim piece.
