No need for apologies my friend...just be <span style="font-weight: bold">very</span> cautious about any &quot;rust free&quot; items they might have for sale.

Thats cuz when it does rain out there it immediately boils thereby eliminating any chance of it rusting badly. Out here when they get wet (or at least 6 months out of the year) it freezes thus holding the water there indefinitely....... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

We regularly shopped the West Coast Pick-A-Parts back in the '80s. 1st Gen Camaros were a rare sight but '60s Chevelles, Novas, B-bodies were seen in quantity. What was crushed out there should have been a crime-thousands of rust free cars, not wrecked just tired.

Were they aware you were taking pictures? So CA yards were paranoid about that; No Cameras Allowed signs everywhere.
