This past weekend drove 4 hours with my dad and his Nissan Maxima and came back with all this.

I bought a slightly used Veethree gps sender so I can turn any electric speedometer into a gps speedometer. He hooked it up but his used electric speedo was defective so he ended up his stock speedo. I got it for $60 so that is well under the price of them on eBay at around $170....it's made for boats but some people think these cars are boats so it should work...:)

Well I was a little bummed out this morning because I had to go with my wife to her brothers for a thanksgiving celebration. Usually Saturday is my day to go junking. We didn't have to be there til 2:30 but she had a hair appt. at 10:30. Being its 70 miles away, she said I don't know what you are going to do for an hour and a half.
So this morning I googled junkyards in that area and found one pretty close . I didn't bring tools but thought I could look around and kill some time. The yard was in his backyard. He had a couple hundred cars , all of them in the weeds. He was a nice old guy but it took me 15 minutes of talking to him before he would allow me in the yard.
I told him I was looking for GBodys and he said he never heard of them...wtf? Anyhow he had about 10 of them but they were all in really bad shape. I saw an 80 GP and kinda looked inside it and guess what...a dash bezel sitting in the back seat with no broken tabs! I couldn't believe it. I've been searching for a year and a half for one.
Obviously after that , I had a great day...timo22
