My scouring of the area's salvage yards turned up two '74 Fury Pillared cars, a '75 Fury Pillar-less, and a Royal Monaco. I can't make any 100% guarantees; naturally, but I'd be more than happy to pull out whatever I can, within reason, and pass the parts on.
My plan is to get out there prior to the CEVS in August and arrive there with a Monaco filled with Monaco parts, so post here with what you want me to look out for and I'll do what I can. Bear in mind that I'm just a scrawny, lone 23-year-old with a diminished physical capacity since the war who can only work with a wrench, socket, and screwdriver set. Don't expect me to pull engines or axles and bear in mind that these cars have been here for a LONG time; dashes are cracked and many parts are gone already.
That said, it will take me some time for the conditions to be right, as I have to plan my schedule accordingly, since it's not a short trip, gas is expensive, and I can save money by getting more parts at a time. The more I save, the less I have to sell them for in order to cover my expenses.
Since I have a policy of working on a 0% net profit margin in the pursuit of aiding fellow Blues Brothers/Monaco enthusiasts, I have to make the trip coincide with my for-profit auto work and that's impossible to predict, so be prepared to wait a month or two.

I'd like to get an interior rear view mirror from a C body. They're wider than the usual cars. About 12" wide, if I remember correctly. It mounts to the windshield and has the DAY/NIGHT lever on the bottom. Mine is severely faded & has big "shadows" in it, making it pretty hard to see behind you.
You can also message me over at Blues Brothers Central or on Facebook on my Shotgun Blues Brotherhood page. I don't get over here as much as I'd like.
Thanks!

If I can find one, you got it. I need two of those darn things, myself...
