Bradley...
Happens all the time and that is why I REFUSE to work ever again for a junk 
yard or a salvager. I know of a local wrecking yard that is FULL of 
Matadors, Pacers, a few Gremlins and the DICK wont sell not a thing....NOT 
ONE DAMN THING. I was wanting the disc brakes off of a Pacer that had been 
like wrapped around a telephone pole. NOPE! Wont sell a damn thing off of 
it! Or anything for that matter. Not even a Concord....hes a parts horder, 
and wont get my buisness either. Either they crushem' or hordem'. SO what 
are we to do????
