On the Orlando Craigslist, there is a post about an s197 being parted out in Lakeland. That's not too far.

There is a salvage yard on Hercules Avenue in Clearwater. Used to called pick-n-pull, not sure of the name of it now. There is also Copher's u-pull it in Clearwater, over near Sunshine Speedday. On Greenwood Avenue in Clearwater is a Barely Used Auto Parts. They pull the parts and sell them instead of you doing the pulling. There is one in Port Richey, right off of US 19, but I don't recall the name.

This is what you gotta do, luckydawg. Jump on I275 south, head over to the southside of St. Pete. Drive around in the hood until you find a group of nice young men. (They will have one hand holding up their pants, generally in the grion area.) Tell them you want some "rock", (This is the St. Pete slang term for s197 front passenger fender.) Make sure you have a wad of cash in your hand, and tell them you want the good stuff.

Just kidding brother. DO NOT DO THIS. I would seriously check all the Craigslist postings within an hour from us. I would also get the phonebook out and call all of the junkyards in the area, including Langston's, Coffer, and there is another one on 41, south of causeway. I would call all of them, they should be able to tell you right away if they have an s197. The way people drive down here, I'm sure you will find a wrecked stang somewhere.

I would also post a wanted ad on craigslist in the auto parts section. I hope this helps.
