Oh, no, Jeff.  There is a parts list.  All outside mirors, $5.00.  All
axles, $10.00.  Automatic transmissions, $25, 3 speeds, $35, four speeds,
$45, five speeds, $55, etc., etc., etc.  There is a price for complete
engines.  It is easy to read and alphabetical.

You get the price guide and a handstamp for all day admission (like an
amusement park for us car guys) for the $2 admission price.  When you walk
up to pay for yuor parts, you should know exactly what you owe.  Sometimes
they charge a few bucks less, rarely more.  It is an awesome yard!

Happy travels!  Get those triangular mirror brackets for someone.
Apparently a few folks are looking for them!  Just don't forget any tools as
the office has none.  I was able to borrow a socket (13mm. fit the bolts on
the gate handles) from a nice gentleman in the yard.  I normally would not
have asked, but he looked like a nice guy.

Thanks!  Ben
