    Ive tried to make some connections in Mexico to get parts. But people Ive talked to down there dont seem to understand how they could benefit from such a venture. Maybe Im mistaken in thinking there would be any down there. Is there such a thing as salvage yards down there?

    Someone from Mexico posted some photos from a yard down there. I can't remember who, but the cars didn't look too bad. This particular yard had mostly all Comets and Mavericks. :)

    There are a lot of parts here in Mexico, in all the country. If you need something we could help you guys. Market here in mexico is very different some parts are inexpensive compared to the US. And some parts are very expensive compared to the US. That is the case with the grabber hood surely i will pay 600 dlrs for a Maverickman hood. Here in Mexico sometimes you can find people selling those kind of hoods around the 700 dlrs. to 1200 dlrs.

    Regards
