Default Junkyard SCORE

So I went to the junkyard today, to look for a ignition coil cover, fan and came across a lil 93 LX that had brand NEW clear corner's and marker's
picked em up for 20$ can't beat that. Also picked up a driver's side front fender, to replace the one that got creased by the 80 y/o lady. Tomorrow I'm going back to the junkyard to pick up the LX front clip. Anyway here's the pics..:

Nice find. I love junk yard shopping, but most around me will not let you into their yard anymore. Insurance reasons

UPDATE:

Finally got the last 2 pieces I needed for my car, to get it to paint

Finding a LX front bumper that isn't cracked, or all dicked up, is like a needle in a haystack,
but I found this one on a 89 LX, that actually was completely intact. The only thing that was
messed up on the car was the interior.

So I got the LX front clip, and the passanger side fender extension. The driver's side was already
gone



Also picked up the driver's side fender to replace the one that got damaged from the 80 y/o lady:


So we're lookin good. Got all the parts....just gotta get the car scheduled for paint. Man talk about being excited. Just happy to get my notch
back to the way it's supposed to look....LIKE A NOTCH!
