Jim, Sounds like it'll be a neat lil' SUV you wind up with - with the V8 in there.
So, are you saying that there is a franchise known as "Pick and Pull"? You said it was a publicly-traded company. I thought PnP was just slang for a junk yard that lets customers hunt and pull their own parts (which is the type we used to love to go to and hope to find something rare and cool). But it seems that most yards converted to the format of not letting any customers back in the yard - much less fun. Brian 83 240D On 5/2/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Yup, Formerly, the ALL American Auto Wreckers, many times rated the best wrecker in the USA, it is now part PicknPull and part full service. You will find it just east of the 10 freeway, on Priest, just North of Chandler Blvd. Lots of nice cars, as it has just been open a month. You can punch up Pick-n-Pull on the web to get some idea of prices. They have about 8 benzes now but no 123 chassis yet. The cars are supposed to turn over every 60 days. Of course they have a good stock of all models, including trucks and vans. Pick-n-Pull is a publicly traded company and has this down to a science. They search your toolbox coming and going, one guy checks you out and another double checks your stuff against the invoice. Nice features include a clean waiting room for the kids, free wheel barrow use and engine crane use and a hand wash station. Get on their mailing list, wherever you live, because they have some special bargain days that you will want to know about. I got a coupon book for the grand opening, used a 50% off coupon to grab a complete 295 HP Cad Northstar engine for $50. Just finished compression testing and this engine is really tight. I have a 94 Bravada with 180,000 miles on the 4.3, and the Northstar is supposed to be a direct bolt up to the 4L60E automatic. Meanwhile, I will just enjoy running it on the engine stand Pictures coming later.
