whats the interior plastic look like on those cuttys lsxmonte ? im supposed to be going out junkyarding down this way with a buddy sometime this week. well see what i dig up. found sme very depressing rust on the cutty this week while tearing it down, up around where the bottom of the front window is and tray where the mount for the wiper motor mounts. its ate all the way through the firewall :evil: . ill probably post some pics on my thread later. theres some real nice stuff on craigs list down this way ill post some links to here in a bit in case any of you local guys are interested.

heres just a small sample of some of the stuff on my local CL. theres some seriously sweet deals around here if you look around. i wish like hell i could snatch up the 80 cutty posted below. in fact, i think im gonna call about it anyways, never know, i might be able to dig up the spare change in the couch

if your looking for anything specific lemme know too man, lsx is up by tampa and im just south of sarasota. like i said, im planning on hitting some yards down this way in the next week or two and i can keep an eye out as well for stuff. thats the great part bout this florida member sh*t, all of us guy can help each other out locating stuff that dont need shipped. im been busy with other things lately but im going to try to get a seperate website for florida G-body owners to, just for us florida guys to trade parts locations, suppliers, and any other local hookups so to speak. i got to get my little bro to help me out with it, im kinda computer stupid, but he goes to school for computer programming, repair, all that good stuff. it might take a minute but sooner or later it will happen.

Yeah, thats at an lkq in tampa. There were actually about 3 more gbodies that I took pics of but my slow *ss internet speed is causing me to loose patience. The interiors of those two cutlasses were pretty gone which is usaully the case with the older gbodies. I myself am looking for a yard that has a78-80 monte or someone parting out one of these. I dont mind driving a good distance as I am need of a hood pretty badly.

You should be able to find a steel or even glass aftermarket hood.. no cowl, just standard.

 

[lesbaldridge]

yeah, but i would suspect hes not wanting to pay the ridiculous prices they want for the aftermarket hoods. $300 or 400 is alot when you can score one from a junkyard for $50-100 most likely. ill be on the lookout down here for one. lsx, have you tried posting a wanted add on craigslist in the auto parts section ? i usually have pretty good luck with that.

 

[Geed_up_442]

If you ever find your self in NE FL. I've got a hood in Jacksonville I've been trying to get rid of. The hood was the original on my car and i drilled through it thinking i'ld like the look of hood pins. Its primed straitened and ready for paint though.

I typed that prematurely, i see yall are talking about 79's and 80's. Still, good luck!
