    So I call Andy this morning, and ask him if he has a spare Fairmont Tailgate latch because mine broke a critical spring, but I need a tackwelder to weld the one pivot pin. Up here, a Fox wagon is rare enough, but the pre-1982 wagons are rarer than hens' teeth. After 1982, the entire latch is totally different. And he's got an NOS in stock? :1st:

    Andy says, Yeah sure, but its gonna cost ya! Oh yeah? Take it out my written off Monty, and install the new one so I can keep storing my parts in her. I'd be screwed without that friendship. Between us, we probably have a 4th Fairmont. We're breeders. :evilsmile::lolup:

    Ndiego, outrageous collection of cars you have as well as your friends. What year is that old black Buick? Looks to be in pretty good original shape. Does it run? Looks like it'd be a blast to drive.
