I'll call my local yard and see what they have. We haven't left yet. Don't know if our local parts selection is any better than yours.

Woohoo! Good times are comin'!

Did you NEED any of the 6V parts for the Challenge? I haven't found everything yet and I'm still working on the Jetta.

Dad here for Aaron.

We will take the 6v parts, but do not need them in FL so if you want to hook up after thats cool (and will give me a reason th buy the wheels from you if you still have them)

I wish that was all.

What it comes down to is I could spend the next 50 hours pulling 2 all-nighters to complete a crappy little untested bottom of the pack finisher while treating my family and everyone around me crap, or I can cave and enjoy the ride.

I'm thinking I may rather enjoy the company and my family.

Maybe, if they're not computerized.

I've done a nationwide search of junkyards, and called a dozen or so.

Every one of them said, "Sure, we've got a GTX in inventory, but it's crushed."

I've got some ordered. Still out of time for everything else.
