heh.. we have one local yard here.. gotta love the atmosphere.. big old dude
behind the counter with a glass eye, 2 giant dogs I could ride home
wandering around, and you always seem to be interupting the conversation
with guys who I swear must spend every day just hanging around the
junkyard;)
any more I drive 60 miles to the columbus u-wrench-it (or whatever they call
it now) if I need something.. totally different world there..

Do you get the idea he doesnt maybe care for the 'ambience and
atmosphere' of the sales desk at yards?

Understandable!  Sorta like walking into any store on Rodeo
Drive in your Walmart jeans and 'Alabama Rocks!' tee shirt... but in
reverse.

They arent all that way, of course... I found Central City parts in
Columbus, and Walt's in Springfield Ohio to be 'outsider friendly'

Generally, though, the smaller the yard the greater the 'redneck factor'

For the money you would spend in shipping the part you could buy it at a
local yard.

Some smuck broke all the plastic, but left the bulbs working.
I'd prefer to avoid the dealer ($$$) and the junk yard, so I
wonder if anyone knows of an online source for such a part.

Thanks,

Norm
