    "Parts Galore" run, June 21st **DUW**

    I went out of my way to go to "Parts Galore" on Saturday, and brought along a camera. Enjoy!



















    Of course, I wouldn't be a true Ford Guy if I didn't snap some pix of other Ford iron...

























    This'n is a bit uncommon...and it wasn't in the yard yet:



    And...I have to admit it: I do admire cars other than Fords. Here are a few that caught my eye (If the mods want me to remove these pix, I'd certainly do so) :














    Hope ya' liked the photos! I'm enjoying this new camera...

      Hmmm...reward? :heyhey: I didn't pull it, but I may be going back there again this Saturday. Since I don't have a box, I was more looking at the "overall condition", rather than at individual parts, other than that 1" swaybar... That Marq struck me as very clean, other than the dents on the body.

      I'll drop Tom a PM about it...

      As for the blue car, I'm also thinking it is an Edsel...that'd make a sweet looking cruiser! I love the look of the 60 Edsels.

              Good catch, I didn't even notice that was a '79! Wonder if my wife would let me take a ride out there and fetch that ....

                    It's up in the air if I'll be going back this weekend, so if any of you Michigan guys were thinking of hitting up the yard, here's the info:
                    Parts Galore LLC
                    (313) 245-2944
                    11360 E 8 Mile Rd, Detroit, MI 48205

                    The 79 marquis is NOT in the Ford section; it is in the section w/ the old cars. Last I heard, if the car is put in the "old stuff" section, it stays there indefinitely.

                      Nice Pics!


                      I do want that '79 Rear bumper, I've wanted one since I first noticed that they didn't have the Black Push Blocks in them.


                      If you go back and pull it for me, I'll make sure that your rewarded for your efforts.

                            Good eye, Scott. And the one before it was '59 Edsel. I always loved the oddball stuff.
