    I once saw a 69 Dodge Super Bee at the ecology here years ago. I thought it was a regular Coronet at first since it was almost completely stripped, but the VIN plate was still on the dash. Nothing but an empty shell and 100% covered with rust, but still cool to actually find one in a junkyard. Saw an early seventies Roadrunner in the same yard once, too.

    Coolest BMW things I've grabbed at the yards:

    -Full BBS kit off of a cabrio
    -Full interior and head off of a euro 323
    -Nice 3 spoke e36 M3 steering wheel
    -One of the old-school style inspection light resetting tools
    -A functional glovebox flashlight......first time I've EVER seen one that actually worked, lol
    -An almost pristine 87 325is airdam
    -Complete owner's manual set
    Damn Super BEE!!

              Full mint black sport interior at the North PDX pnp. Got carpet, houndstooth door panels, mint front sport seats and nice rear seat. It was also half off day. $75 for all that.

                  When I was about 18 I found an Alpina E21 in a junkyard. It was an M20, still had two alpina wheels on the rear, the gauge cluster and the steering wheel. I left hoping to come back and grab the rear wheels but I never saw the car again. At that time I didn't really know what it was entirely, it just had odd "bubble stripes" down the sides. One of my crazier finds for sure.

                    Found an unused Sheetz coupon book last year - the kind that somebody had to pay $10 for to support some kind of organization or another. Lots of absolutely free stuff in there (not buy something-get something free). Still not done with it yet.

                    A couple of months ago, the g/f was taking apart a roof rack while I went back to the car to get a drill and she happened to look down and found $30 right there on the ground.

                    Nothing super-cool BMW related, though.

                      There are no yards or pick-a-parts or anything near me. Nothing. I hate it.

                        two best picks were:
                        a deep red interior minus seats out of a 87 vert ~ 50
                        e28 535is spoiler ~ 22

                        oh and I got some ellipsoids that were very slightly pitted for like 20

                          The yards around here suck. They want top dollar for parts. $30 for an icv, wtf??
