U pull ripoff

I went to u-pickem junk yard a few years back looking for a five-speed manual tranny for my Toyota Corolla commuter car I picked up for 800 bucks. They gave me a list of the potential cars. I be danged if a transmission was laying on the ground in front of the car I was told was a good match. Checked the one bearing that is suspect by taking a cover off. Threw the tranny in the wheel barrow, 125 bucks later, my car was running like a champ. Was quite happy!!!

Most my scrap yard visits have ended pretty decent once in awhile was disappointed. Some from my own misjudgement. Lol. But it's cool making a "Find." One one my best was years ago. A 12 bolt posi rear. 4.10 gear out of a wrecked Chevelle. It was actually what I was looking. The guys before took the cover off. And pulled one axel. I watched them walk away. Had that rear out in record time. Bought new axles and put together. Put it into a Pontiac Lemans. To the best of my knowledge? That car is still buzzing around today. That really woke up that Pontiac 350.
