What are ya lookin for?

'99 Montana van parts - airbox, tank sending unit, rear airshocks that don't leak.
80s-90s ECMs and big chunks of wiring harness.
Really cheap 5.0 ford intake w/rails, injectors and regulator
Aluminum brake drums (not holding my breath)

I see there's a Pic-n-pull and a u-pull-it too, I'll probably start there.
A good way to spend a day, if you ask me. Everything up here is all rusted up, would be nice to tear stuff off a car that's lived a dry life.

Sweet. Was there a harbor freight down there someplace? I don't want to bring a whole lot of removal tools on the plane.

Wonder if you can bring engine blocks on a VIA bus...

If you got mad skills, fix the Montana that is in there (if it still is), pack it full of parts and drive it home... ;-)

Or, you could hook up with Dennis O. and buy the pink typhoon, fix it, and pack it full of parts. Hmm I am on to something. Why not but a cheap, rust free S-10 and drive it home?

I think there are two HFs in town.

You need to strap a vid camera on when you go in the picknpull. A pasty white boy from Minn. with brand new tools should raise a few eyebrows. Also, bring your own hand wipes. They charge out the ass for them there.

Hand wipes... for whut? That's what t-shirts are for.

I'm pretty much gonna stick out against the entire state.... one of these things is not like the others. Not to mention, I'll look like a lobster by the time I leave.

Guess I better bone up on my ninja-visegrip manuevers.
