Default DFW salvage yard for Fbodies

well i did a search and i guess theres a guy name Robbie in mansfield who parts out fbodies and i don't have his contact info. would someone that know who I'm talking about PM his info so i can talk to him. Im looking for the small retainer that holds the parking brake in place after being adjusted. Im missing the left side. I don't wanna buy a whole backing plate for over $100. Thanks!!!

I can't remember the name of it, but somewhere here in dallas there is a road that has like 15 salvage yards side by side. If you google maps "salvage yard" just look for the concentration of them. I went out there one day and one of the yards on the very end had about 15 fbodys in different conditions. I got several parts from them. I know its vague but its the best I can remember. Hope it helps.

I know at least one road are talking about is business 287 between Arlington and Mansfield. There is a ton of salvage yards up and down the road. I have talked to a few places over there and they regularly get stuff in. I'm actually headed to one on Friday to get a sail panel to replace mine ...

Yes Robbie is out of business. He sold or scapped everything he had.
