Fw: junkyarding part 2

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxx>]

I also forwarded him a 'quick list' of things I commonly look for in salvage
yards. This is a real incomplete list, however, some of the most desirable
things he can pick up to resell and make some money for his time and effort
pulling them.

Hi folks, something you might consider is printing those requests and
taking them with you to the salvage yard to see what is/isn't avaialbe or
condition and writing notes next to each request, something I do here!
Also, while Brian has already mentioned a few things, these are more items
you need to check out and see if they can be bought reasonably from the
yard:
mirrors/driver side and especially passenger side exteriors
grills just about any year or model
AM/FM, or AM/8track, or AMC "logoed" radios
three spoke, rim blow and unusual "good condition" steering wheels
tailights
exterior door handles, and interior door handles pre-1974
interior rear view mirror
unusual options like vanity mirrors, tissue dispensers
three core radiators
consoles between seats
three hole gauges on Grem/Horn/Conc series
upper crash pads in good shape, all models
windshields in the Ambo/Mats (interchange with Machine)
armrests in pre 74 AMCs inclduign all you listed
Pacer headlight surrounds and grills
any tachometers
any unusual gauges like Rally Pack in Pacer, Matador
anything in the American that will interchange with SC/Rambler
I did a huge list like this awhile back for those hitting salvage yards, it
is in somewhere if you search, probably last year I guess, maybe should have
saved it! Good luck in the junkyard, hopefully many of the pieces you get
here you can resell at profit and use
that money on your own 'AMC keeper'
