Any used part suppliers / junk yards in Texas

I am going to be driving from Dallas to Houston this weekend and I was wondering if there are any junk yards between the two that might have any tr6's.

There is British Auto Specialists in Ft. Worth and British Sports Car Center in Houston. I don't have numbers for either handy, but they are in the phone book.

What parts are you needing? I'm parting a '70 TR6.

I doubt that either one of them would appreciate being associated with "junk yards".

drivers side tail light and a rear valance.

Now if you can pull off the floorboards and rockers, that would be nice as well.


Dallas, how hard was it to find the mallard paint for your car?

No problem, Jeff at British Auto Specialist in Fort Worth has a book with the TR paint formulas in it. There is a paint supplier he has done business with for a long time that mixed upa small batch and we were able to apply a small amount and compared it to the original unoxidized paint under the dash crash pads and it was a perfect match. They are almost finished with the restoration of my car, but if you run by BSA in the next week or so, you can see the finished paint job on my 6 and see what I mean.
