      WOW. I am really starting to feel the pressure. Remember these are just old yards with some Festivas left. They should have PLENTY of useable hard parts and stuff. Just no desirable "I found it first" kind of stuff. I hope we can all get a few things and mostly have fun doing it.

      My last count is probably 8-9 Festivas in total and 4-5 Aspires in total. At that time they were still pretty intact. 1.5 yrs ago. There aren't too many Festiva "yarders" around here should it should be ok.

      McDonalds in the AM sounds good to me. What you think maybe 9-10 o'clock?

        10a sounds good. What's the number of the jy? ..... so I can call them for other cars in there. I'm looking for a 95' Chevy s10, 93-96 ford Ranger, & a 2001-02 Honda cr-v.

          Brocks 740-962-3211

          He has a Mazda section a crap load of Escorts. No Gt's at last count. Maybe some Tracers he thinks. A pretty big Truck area. And my guess lots of Chevy's lol I've seen a lot of Rangers too. I hope he has some stuff for ya. Best call and ask though. Never been to his import yard/field.

                Don't forget that on the 4th, all parts are half price at the LKQ PNP's. So if you have one nearby that has Festivas, you can get some real bargains.

                      I'm not going to make it.

                      I asked if I can have off work and they said "not this Friday, not the day after the 4th of July!"

                      It sucks working in retail!

                      Have fun guys!
