That way there won't be any fighting.
And when things come to a TIE, the one who is willing to pay the MOST, gets the item.
Just as if we had to buy it on eBay. I like that idea! So, is this going to happen? Let's do this after Carlisle (I still have to register!).

Did anyone read this? I checked out Harry's website and their business model works like this: Late model cars go into the yard next door (which is NOT a U Pull) and older cars go into the U Pull. So, like Allen said, don't expect many CDW27 on the U Pull lot. And don't expect an extreme discount on our parts. I might be up for this, but I'll be looking for parts for a 1988 Olds Cutlass Ciera 2.8L V6. The wife needs a new fuel pump, driver's side mirror, and I could use the practice ripping into her model car without damaging her vehicle. The next door yard charges more regular prices for late model cars. I wouldn't mind a set of 98+ headlights too, but I won't lose any sleep if I can't get them. 'll probably sand them over the summer sometime.

FWIW - No 'Tour headlights on any cars at Harry's , as well as no SVT's in there . I don't remember seeing mirrors left on them , and I don't remember seeing any leather interiors . There are only (maybe) 3 'Tours in the whole joint , and they're hammered  ! Like Jason said , any worthwhile Contour goes next door to Kress to be stripped & sold (not a U-Pull-It) . THOSE BASTAGES   !!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Allen

Its sad to see them all in pain, but if you need parts its a great place to go to. (Far Drive!) :p So if Harry's is gonna bum all of you out, then why can we go to this one ???
