Zen in the junkyard

A brisk wet morning at one of my favorite yards is what really makes my day.

US Auto, Wayne MI, this was set in the yard on 12/13

Shocked that the plow was not pulled and put on Craigslist for $1500

Woody's?

Nope. Crispin's. 

Cold muddy day in the junkyard. 

I want an early d50 so bad

2 weeks ago I was in the GM car/Domestic truck yard getting Sierra parts, when I spotted a Prelude tucked way at the back against the fence beside the outhouse.

It had 119k kms (74k mi) on the clock and a perfect interior. 1991 SR trim (american Si) with a 5 speed manual and the ALB package. Me and my buddy got the whole interior, which had an unbroken clock cover and all the brackets for the optional armrest - something I've never seen owning over 9 of them now over almost 20 years.

The following weekend the loader wasn't running because it was too cold, but this past weekend we went back and snagged the whole drivetrain.

Got the radiator too because it's an aftermarket part with metal end tanks in perfect shape, while the one in my car is original from 1991 and missing all the fins at the bottom.

Back at the junkyard today. Visited the GM yard, found a convertible Crammit

This crewcab had a 454 based on the RPO codes.

Very tempted to snag the 4L80 just sitting there easy to grab

Found a V8 trailblazer. I think I saw 799 on the heads

According to Wiki, that makes it an LH6. According to this link, that means aluminum block gen 4 LS but with the older gen 3 crank trigger....... Hmmmmm. Only downside is it has AFM.

Then I visited the import yard. Found two Acura CSX. Both of them had the trunk lids already gone, but one still had the outer tail lights. Snagged those.

Should be able to flip them for a little profit
