Indy Junk Yards

Post by 90GTZHO »

So, i seem to remember the early Bfests used to have parts days where a group would gather up and make a mob run to the junkyards and pick cars apart. Im curious why we dont set something up like this for this year or any year for that matter any more? I think it would be hella fun and funny to have a mob of people show up, rob the berettas of parts.

I'm willing to be bet berettas are far and few here in the Indy area.

With the amount of idiots that drive in this town there are brand new cars going into the yards all the time

G.W. Pierce and Dad's are two yard that are several miles north of Indy, they sometimes have L-Bodies but usually only 1-3 combined. But there are plenty of other cars with compatible parts.

There are of course several yards in town.

That means there would be a newer 3400 sitting in a yard there someplace... Hmmmm

Wouldn't that be a first for a Fest..... Do a 3400 swap right in the parking lot... LOL

There are 3 yards here in the St Louis area on your way through...
Mostly you meet friends when traveling by accident, like by sitting next to them on the train, or in a restaurant, or in a holding cell.

If my hoist folded up that nice I would help... LOL But we would have to rent one from an auto parts store... 3400 swap is quite easy :)

Buy and return a hoist....


Clerk: "reason for return?"
Beretta folk: "We're done with it"
Clerk: "Excuse me? Done?"
Beretta folk: "Yes done, we've installed the engine and now we want to return the hoist, is there a problem?"
Clerk: "thats not a valid reason on here"
Beretta folk: "Oh ok, sorry then, how about did not need?"

Biggest thing is, will we have time to hit any yards in the area or will we all be too busy with other things?

If you guys get it in gear and make it to St Louis in time (they close at 6pm) we can hit up the jy in the ghetto, last time I was there they had like 10-15 corsicas and berettas. 8)
