    To help us all, I thought it would be kind of cool if we compiled a list of rare-or highly sought after parts. Such as the v8 throttle cable that seems to be a fairly hot item.

    It would be nice if I (or anyone else) had this list when we went to the junkyardss-often many of these parts can be had for pennies, and I can just start picking them up when I see them. So that I could help out a fellow mavericker in the future--I know cal. is abundant with rust free examples!

    I know alot of Granada parts switch.
    Is the throttle cable the same on a Granada, or not?

    Oh, my contribution to the list would be engine mounts, Z-bar, and shock tower braces.

    It's what I've always called the clutch arm that goes between the frame and the block. I don't know if it's the correct term or not, it's what the folks I know call it.

    How about rust free floor pans and those little washer/spacer "thing-a-ma-bobs" that hold the rear spoiler on?

    you should take the rear spoiler off, since unlimited products makes a glass one which includes mounting hardware
