newbie from Florida
 
Hey all. Long time reader first time poster. Just moved to Florida by way of South Korea, Good to be back in country. Towed my truck here from Utah and am ready to start the tear down. I am wondering if there are any good salvage yards in the area around Patrick Air Force Base. I need some steering parts. Also looking for a good body shop in the area. Thanks in advance for any help.

Can't help you with the salvage yards, but welcome to Florida, from an Illinois native, who was just recently "transplanted" to Florida...it's great here, isn't it?

:D

cdowns,
I look at women in bating suits for a living. One of the advantages of being a water survival instructor.
Oh yea, and also at the beach.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome. to asnwer some questions:
Longhornmail I was at Kunsan AB just outside of Kunsan city. I am starting to miss the food. Patrick AFB is on the island southeast of Orlando and just east of melbourne, where Cape Canaveral is. Weasel29gm thanks for the salute, much appreciated. Cdowns thanks for the swap meet tips I think I will try to make the lakeland one.

Welcome from the redneck riviera.
Any Herks left at Patrick? They make better noise than those dam jets at Kunsan. Is the Kunsan water that comes out of the tap still brown?

cdowns 01-31-2003 01:59 PM

The swap meet at lakeland is feb8&9 at USA INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY rt33 lakeland for info 863 6862334 it's a pretty big one about 800vendors

Glad your trip went ok, mine did, too, will talk later, Bill.

Vince M 01-31-2003 08:24 PM

Welcome from O-town. Orlando....

I go up to Webster almost every month and last month it had 1200 + vendors. Largest ever and it keeps growing. Both of the others are big also but I've never made it to either (yet).

Drop me a PM or an email and let me know what your looking for. There's a few guys around the Orlando area that are board members also.
