	Been there and done that.  There are plenty of auto junk yards where
you strip out stuff yourself, bring it inside and bargain with the
owner.  Several years ago I got several Cadillac distributor caps with
GMHEI coils in them for a buck each.  However, the price was only $5.00
pulled out and sitting on the rack so not much of a bargain.
