I need the passenger wheel well to proportioning valve. It's supposedly obsolete from the dealers now. I did get the 3 others I needed though.

I am getting desperate. I don't want to spend the day bending a line to fit stock location, when I need to be getting the engine back together.

Mills has two cars. Didn't look to see what brake systems were in them, but they are there. Neither were rusted out or anything so they could still be in decent shape. If I wasn't broke then I would schedule a time to go out and rip those cars apart for any viable parts.

Trying to find time to hit the junkyard before this Saturday is the question. Anyone want to pull the line for $15?

Just call and see if they will pull it for you.

They are most likely not going to pull a brake line... they can't even pull a control arm without dismembering everything in their path, including the desired part...

No go on them pulling. Going to pay them a visit 8 am Saturday morning. Old pieces of crap suck!

They still probably try to charge you $15 for it. Used parts used to be cheap, now it seams like they want as much as new. I called over to Mills about a M90 supercharger when I still had my SHO and they wanted $500 for it. I can get them already rebuilt without the core for about $350. I did notice that the prices went up after they got a computer system to look up part values on instead of just walking up to the counter and asking what they want for these.
