          Very welcome. Actually about that, there's a Mark VI at Taylor Auto Salvage (Taylor, MI). Since I'm pretty sure the vacuum motors are the same part between the older and newer cars, that should be a viable donor.

                  79 LTD S is gone; had red interior (and wasn't at the same yard)
                  87 P72 (were these still "S" models by this year?) pics are in the junkyard thread (not beige)

                    Yah this was a good time. Fun getting the band back together every year. Burgers weren't bad at that one joint either.

                      I believe fleet models were still designated as 'S' models, although you wont find that on the car itself. Perhaps on the build sheet? I can't remember currently
