For everyone wishing me a happy birthday back on January 23rd, thanks. Running a little slow now that I don't have my beast.

You should be running faster now you don't have to mess with the car. What took up all that time?

Hey quick question guys. Has anyone been out to the LS Candy Shop? They have some decent totaled 5th Gens there. Just wondering how it works, like a pick and pull, or they have specific items pulled already. Link for reference below.

I've been there, had good luck with them. They are also on facebook. Best way is to call or text them what you want and they will pull it (if it isn't already on a shelf somewhere) and then either ship it or you can pick it up. Not a place you can go and look around or anything - it is just a small building full of wrecked cars being disassembled.

Sounds good to me. They have a gauge pack and bezel for a manual at $160 that I think I'm gonna go get. Only bad part is that its got the V8 shift pattern but whatever

It's a little hard to find, GPS will get you close then look for a gravel driveway next to a gas station - the building is back from the road and I don't think there were any signs either. No marked entrance. just go in the door - looks exactly like what you would expect a chop shop to look like, except the cars are all wrecks.

They were the only place I could find oddball parts, none of the junkyards around here had any.

I hear ya, I was really surprised that Wilberts GM yard didnt have a single camaro

I'd be surprised if there was a car under 10 years old in our local junk yard, lol

I have bought many things from complete take outs for LS builds to small things. Easy to deal with and just about everything is in great shape.

Wish they were about 150 miles closer to me. I have crap load of 5th gen stuff lying around I would just give them, except for the spoilers. Can't even get a boneyard around here to take it for free.
