Yep. Seen this pretty regular lately, less and less 123's and they get crushed sooner (because they're made of REAL steel, unlike most cars these days.)

We need to come up with a list of parts that just have to be found in junkyards (either not available anymore or too expensive at the parts houses) and a number of us start collecting and storing these parts when we can.

I've kind of begun to do this myself smaller parts, but need more room for trannies, diffs, etc.
