^Picked up a blower motor at the Pick N Pull on Commercial, San Joser.
This is the first time I went to a Junk Yard up here in Norcal and I was amazed that they didn't check inside my tool box for "stolen parts" like they always do in Socal yards.
They wanted $60 bucks for the whole blower assembly which includes the housing. I said screw that, let me take it apart cause all I need is the blower motor.....which was about $30.

Had a nifty day junkyarding yesterday. I went to two of them. At the first place the only thing noteworthy was a '97 3.0CL that has the rare heated seat switch that puts both seats on the same switch.
The second yard was a little better.
'79 CVCC
'74 Corolla coupe
'91 Phoenix red DX coupe
Do not ask for parts on this thing. All body panels were installed with wood screws and the console and e-brake cover were maroon and painted black. The only good things would be the carpet, seats and kick panels. I may get the seatbelts for myself.
'80 Cressida
These are just cool cars. You may not think anything is special about these but wait until you see one with a 2JZ-GTE.
And some thrashed CB. I bet he didn't think those smoked taillights were such a neat little thing after that wreck.

Nicest find I've ever had and probably will ever have.
It's a JDM H22A with an MP1A auto LSD transmission. It had the P13 and correct TCU as well. I paid for it today and hauled it up to the front. About a 200 yard walk pushing it over gravel suspended from an A-frame hoist. One of the most physically intensive things I've done in a while. I hate automatic transmissions because of their weight alone. I couldn't take it easily in my Taurus so I left it there after I stripped it of all the bolt-on parts. I'm going back to pick the long block and transmission tomorrow.
Here are the only pictures I took.

Now I need to clean them up. Unfortunately I couldn't find the passenger side in tan.
Nice find though they look to be in decent shape for 20+years.
