Best DFW salvage yard that is FBody friendly? There's an *** load around here I have discovered but I'd like your opinions on which ones cater most to FBodies. When I lived in California there was a place in San Jose called GM Sport Salvage that was completely GM cars, anything like that? They had a fair amount of Fbodies, but nothing amazing, and they were mostly earlier 4th gen style.
Thanks!
Thanks!

E-bay is your best bet, Cleveland Pick A Part and Fparts are usually pretty good. I have always been impressed with the quality of the stuff I got from those too. Also, just out side of SA is HPsalvage, bought a mint ebony Firebird/Trans Am dash shell from them for my 93.

Back when I had my third gen, there used to be an all f-body salvage yard right at I30 and Loop12. Man, I used to spend hours digging through that place for stuff. Don't know of any around here now.

$150, came with all the vents, fuse box door and glove box, it also included ebony hard top pillar trim from a Camaro. I bought a MINT ebony six speed center console from Cleveland Pick A Part for $100. Every thing I have gotten from those guys has been in awesome shape, Fparts is pretty good also. I did all of my ebony interior conversion using ebay stuff.

It is an inventory for a ton of salvage yards. I bought my first set of 2v mustang heads in 2000 off of this site. I bought 2 more after that. I have not used it in 5-6 years, but worth checking out.

Yikes. Jackass alert jackass alert. Just called Robbie, was hoping the number I was given was his shop number, turned out to be his cell. He couldn't remember 100% if he had a headlight cover but he gave me a great price on one, even though its a different color, getting it painted fresh would still come out as a better deal than I've seen floating around. heads up for anyone interested in his stuff, this guy is super nice, I don't know anyone that friendly to a stranger who calls their cell at 7 am for a business call lol, I feel like such an *** hole. Will try to swing by there later today
Robbie if you stumble upon this, sorry about that again brother!

Yeah. Robbie is a great guy and has helped me out with quite a few things. I forgot to mention that was his personal I gave you. He has a set of wheels when I was in a crunch once, the were the white 25 anniversary wheels. They were hidious lol. But he sold them to me for cheap. Cheaper than I could have bought one tire for.

Man his prices are insanely awesome! I'm meeting up with him tonight at his place to purchase a headlight cover and I'll just have it painted, will still be cheaper than buying a headlight cover on its own. He also said he'll be sure to lookout for the other parts I was looking for Awesome guy!
Awesome guy!
