I just found an 88 4 cyl M/T Raider in the junk yard. I called the guy & he was planning on crushing it tomorrow!! I talked him into holding off for 1 day ... I'm going by tomorrow @ 3:30ish & getting all I can off it!( I'M so excited.. it's the only 1 I've found in 2 yrs)I need advice on what to retrieve or a wish list to send along to those in need.(mine is an 89 3.0 a/t)

I'm going for body panels & interior parts..proably back sliders & signal lites. I do have battery powered tools(impact ,drill & sawzall) Please ... don't be shy!

I know I can come off as an a$$hole...& I am =)..But I will hook a brutha( or sista)) up !

Please reply by 4:30 am eastern(gotta make a living)

Body Damage is Cool
Do you know what the interior color is? I could use a spare tan ash tray. I could use a good shape vinyl passenger door card if it has electric windows. I am also looking for a the flat center console lid with the latch.

The exterior is blue..not sure about the interior( I just saw it passing this afternoon).

This is the plan...

Strip EVERYTHING I can from inside..


Get lites,grill , bumpers,hood, doors ,Backgate, headlite bezels& ,wiper assy, wipers,antenna & any freaking thing else I can use!!

I've got 2 other guys & a pick up ;lined up to help me strip this b*tch!...
The J/Y guy won't sell me the whole thing because he's already accepted it for salvage.. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

I can get the ash tray...you may have to paint it.Can you live w/ that?

Well i would love a front diff if it is a 4.625 ratio, but that is a lot to ask and the chance of that ratio i assume is low

If it has headllight washers I need that body piece below the grill where the nozzles are mounted. Sorry, I forgot the name.

If it is in good shape, no rust, no bends and ONLY if equipped for headlight washers.
