Thought I'd show everyone what a killer deal I got a coupla weeks ago.
I went to our Calgary Pick-your-Part last weekend for their "all you can carry" day. For 30 bucks Canadian (what's that? 2dollars American??? hahaha!, no, it's really $19.54 'Murcan greenbacks.)
What did I get?
THREE nasa hoods, 1 black LeMans dash with all the air conditioning ducts and vents intact, 1973 am/fm 8-Track that works! 2 tach guage clusters (1 from a Black 75Grand Am 4 door, and the other from a Red 73 Grand Prix.). All for about $20 bucks US!!!
What luck, I don't go the the yards for a year or so and then boom, I went scouting the day before the sale and saw everything, cameback the next morning with a buddy and got it all. He loaded me up at the start line with the hoods, dash, guages and everythingon by back, all I had to do was walk 10 feet to do it and get the deal. Killer eh?
The following pics were taken with my Cheapo digital Camera.
The 3rd hood is on the other side of the house with the other hoods I've got. The 3 new hoods are all Red and White ones off of 75 LeMans GT Canadiana Edition cars. Two of them were 350 chev 4 BBL cars and the last was a 400 4BBL.

Here's a pic of the dash I got as it hangs from the rafters of my garage.

This is a pic of the two Tach Clusters I got as they also hang from the rafters.
