I'm not talking about a pick and pull type place. That would be a joke.
Good for you, but I've been around plenty of junk yards in a lifetime of automotive work and I can't even fathom a guy who still has all his teeth actually wanting to work in a junk yard. Not for me! You must be easily impressed.

Saleen thanks for checking on that for me.

thanks to everyone for the replies. I am going to try and go get it tomorrow so I can check it out and get someone local to do it.

Is there anyone running 285's on the stock 17 inch wheels that can measure how wide it is from tire to tire. I have a friend that has a car hauler I can borrow but its only 80" wide.

Stock bottom ends on 03-04 can handle 600whp.
