    Yeah I saw that! Too bad I'm broke right now. Damn truck won't crank or I'd be in Fair play,SC right now. :mad: Just got it out of the shop 2 weeks ago and now I'll probably have to have it towed in, at least I'm at home and not stuck on the side of the road somewhere! :slap: If I was a:drink: man, this would surely drive me to:drink: :drink: :drink: !

    They were in nice shape, come to think of it there was no rust that I could see.

    go to west vergina there every where but they dont advertise! you just ask the locals
    and thel tell you where to go. i found a gt and a grabber sitting beside each other.
    i showed to much interest that he jacked up the price on the cars. so i didnt buy them.

    You gotta be careful about that at smaller yards where you may be dealing directly with the owner. Pull-A-Part is not like that. They have one set price for everything, the Mexicans at the counter don't know what you took the parts off of, and they could really care less!

    Jamie, I still need two turn signal cams with all lobes and metal backing on them.

    I will pay you for part, shipping, and $25 over for the work, if you are willing to find/pull them. I would take more if you can get them...since I bet they are all going to fail soon due to their age and becoming brittle.

    Yes, I am THAT desperate for these things. Just a minor inconvenience, not having the left turn signal return on it's own, but I cannot find the parts locally.

    I already sold one Comet small front bumper I had, I'm keeping the other one I have with brackets.

    Scott, I'll take a look. Good possibility the '75 4 door there might have one.

    I would appreciate...Thanks for looking for me. I know it seems like a trivial part, but I just can't seem to get them (except for the new plastic ones that don't work, and cost $10 each!!! :slap: ).
