Default Struck GOLD at the junkyard!!!

Found all these parts from an '86 Capri... they were being stored in a wrecked van,safe fromthe weather...

1. Hood (rust free and no holes drilled for a hood scoop)
2. Rear Hatch (rust free with 3rd brake light, hinges and latch)
3. Tail lights (look brand new)
4. Rear Bumper cover (perfect condition with the steel bumper still atached)
5. Headlight buckets (no cracks)
6. Front Grill (perfect condition 3 bar with chrome trim)
7. Front driver side fender (rust free with perfect moldings)
8. Both rear 1/4 panels (rust free with perfect sail panels, 1/4 glass, trim and mouldings)

The yard owner said the stuff has been there for a long time and wanted rid of it...
so he said, "Give me $200 and get it out of here."

Woo Hoo!!!

There was no chassis, the parts were already removed from the car. The yard owner said some guy traded them for some other parts, so they put them in the wrecked van and there they sat until I stumbled upon them.
