Thanks for the pictures.  I have never seen a vette junk yard before.  Is it like Pic and Pull?  Sad to see all the cars, but of great value to everyone needing parts.  Does anybody know of junk yards like this in northern California?

Ron is a very decent guy to do business with.
 I purchased front and rear calipers/rotors/knuckles off of a wrecked '05 GTO, better known as the red big brake upgrade for the '04 GTO. Price was good and everything was there to do the big brake conversion. So for anyone who has a '04 GTO, you already know the brakes are to small for the car. So give Ron a call and get yourself a complete big brake setup from a '05-'06 GTO. Thumbs%20Up
 
Thanks Ron!
