Yeah, that's what I thought also because I have a side window with a different lip and edge.

Not in a junkyard but a fenced off yard behind a strip mall. It was a daily last year for an older couple. I think they own the lot. Two busted windows on it.

Finally got to wander through a couple local yards today. Beautiful day for it too. Found a few things I could use, grabbed a doghouse cover and a free hammer today, going back to get the plastic interior trim (see my build thread for that stuff). Figured I'd share some fun pics.

Not much left on this shorty, tons of people out there looking for one, and here one sits in a scrapyard.

Good Dodge Sheetmetal

I'm thinking about grabbing the table pedestal out of this one if it's there next time I go back.

Whole row of PT Cruisers

I see very few Aerostars on the road anymore in my area, much less a sweet cargo version like this one.

Another stack of parts getting recycled. I could watch them crush this junk all day as long as they leave the classic steel alone.

Pop-outs all the way around.

This is the one I'm grabbing the plastic trim, doghouse, and wing windows from. Has some decent headlight bezels inside if anyone needs some.

Too rich for my blood.

Red punch buggy no punch back! Plenty of good Astros all over this yard. Some in the distance of this pic.

Looks like an enjoyable day. Let me know if you come across a clean antenna set up for my 74 G10.

Will do. Sadly early Chevy are slim pickings in my area, especially in nice shape. That's why we all jumped on that 75 Beauville like a pack of buzzards picking apart a carcass. lol

So my favorite local u-pull is closing for good at the end of the month. Half price for everything. Nice to find this for a farewell visit.

I needed an instrument cluster, grabbed the distributor, and q-jet for spares, the radio delete plate, and the hvac plastic. The column is pretty weathered looking, but I may still go back and pull it.
