Stopped by Pick-n-Pull at lunch today looking for some GTP Louvers or something else I might be able to use. Walked up and down row after row of wrecked cars. Finally, at the end of the second to last row...there it was...a black Grand Prix GTP....and there in the hood...looking very nice...were the louvers with drip pans. Only a couple of screws missing. I quickly removed them before some other picker even looked at my row! Then I spent some more time looking at the trucks they had...not a single Liberty in the yard. Went up to the front to pay for my find. I expected to have to pay around $30 as their price list has "louvers" at $15 each. When he told me my total was $5.75 I almost did a dance! Including the $1 admission fee, this is the best deal I've found on anything in a long time! Woo hooo!

Now, what do I have in the garage that will cut through the hood without doing unwanted damage?

Now I just need Pote to get a hold of me and this wonderfull circle of joy will be complete :jester:

Oh ya still need to go get some hockey pucks, the ones I have hold too much old school value to me :ROTFL:

Some carriage bolts for them cause I want rounded heads, I know silly, and something to fab up for rear brake line extensions, I just may have some thinner steel in the shed for that :pepper:

tommudd · **Posted:** Thu Apr 14, 2011 7:53 pm

I've got hockey pucks out here already drilled I think
I've got scrap metal that I made brackets for Megalos with
I've got 3/8 inch x 2.5 inch carriage bolts/nuts out there

I've also got a push mower I just picked up in Perrysburg for 40 bucks, 3 years old, mowed one of those postage stamp lawns, guy bought it new at Lowes for 199. bucks back then! Brand new blade with it, oil was changed last fall
He wanted 60 but you all know me................................... :goink:

Also found 214 John Deere garden tractor with a hydraulic lift, 47 inch deck, new blades, 30 inch tiller, front blade, 160 lbs of weight for 1500. Was reringed last year with 20 hours on it since

Holy crap, your a mind reader too?!?!?!?! :ROTFL:

tommudd · **Posted:** Thu Apr 14, 2011 8:28 pm

You just now found that out? :shock:

Yes its been interesting to know some of your thoughts to say the least :oops:

By the way my garage is getting " fuller" or should I just say now its too full!

OHHHHHHH almost forgot in all the excitement of the past couple days........... I looked at and TESTED out a Miller and a Lincoln welder today! I LOVE the Miller, I was able to run a continuis bead for 3 minutes on 1/4" before I was pushing the machine and it needed to cycle, all on 110-115 :shock:

! The cycle was also only 10 minutes before I could burn again! It is rated for 3/16" but maxed out burned 1/4" very very nicely! The Lincoln was also nice, seemed a bit cheaper and lighter weight but IF it was my money it would go to the Miller :wink:

The biggest problem is with my recent purchases I can't hide another $750 out the door with tax :roll:

For that kind of money and having access to 220 I would just go with a used machine so the machine wasn't pushed and you could go much thicker.
