Bet you'll never do that again. . .

Have you tried all the wonderful wrecking yards around Tacoma & Olympia. My favorite Pick 'a' Part in the entire universe is in Olympia--across from the airport. Last time I was there, almost 2 years ago, they were going through first gen. Dakotas at about 5 a month.

And of course, try all the Puget Sound area Craigslists. I think any Magnum V6 will work.

There is/used to be a wrecking yard at the end of the runway on 112th at Steele. Back in the 80's when I lived there, in Graham not the wrecking yard, I bought about a grand worth of early 60's mopar parts from them. They had lots of engines in the lobby of their building. Might check there.

Don't know if it still is, but back then Tacoma was junkyard central for the Puget Sound. And very competitive.

They crushed my donor 63 Chrysler Newport, btw, but I got a lot of stuff off that car before they did. Sad the day I went to the yard and it was gone. . .
