Ouch that;s a shame alright. Even more of a shame that they have the hg issues to begin with. Looks like that thing has been used to sell parts after it's condemnation. :nono:

I saw it today. Its at a local pick n pull

Also, will the strut bar off of a older STS work on my SLS, i can get one there, and my parts guy wants me to wait 6 months.

WTH is the weather like in Chicago? It looks like it's sunny and warm there, without a drop of snow on the ground.

Hey it could be worse, at least it's not a victim of vandalism.

Eh, there's like a dozen N* powered cars at any given time at the one junkyard I usually go to and its not the same old ones sitting there either. Great source for parts though.

Hi Crown Vic Owner. What pick and pull is that? Did they have any Sevilles on the lot? I need a few parts for my Seville. That yard looks clean, I have been to some that are a hell hole.

Crown vic, you don't live in Dallas do you? I have a pick and pull near me that looks like that place and they have an eldorado JUST like that one. The interior looked like it was ready to go and it was an older Eldorado. I would probably junk it too, that or part it out myself.

its in summit,

There is another 1 about 35 minutes east in Hammond, Indiana. Just over the IL/IN border. Same name and corporate owner of the Summit location. Most of the inventory is '95 and older...you'll have a hell of a time finding something specifically from a '97 SLS...unless the parts are compatible from an earlier year.
