I was stationed in Yuma, AZ in the early '90's and recall going to Hidden Valley, AZ for some real good junkyards. Sorry, that's not much help. Did you try checking on the internet. I realize it will be best to get some local knowledge. Good luck on your trip and your quest.

www.car-part.com and you can check ALL the junkyards in the Pheonix area.

ecoparts has great sales.. and has 2 yards in the Phx area.

http://www.ecoparts.com/sales_and_events.htm

For a while they were 1/2 off 2 days a week (different days) at the phx locations. The only sales I see right now is 50% off on April 10 and 11 plus 25% off if you go in when its raining..

It is primarily a pull your own part place, but somethings are already pulled

BUT, I don't know if they have anything for your year..

car-part.com as mentioned previously is a great way to find which yards have parts for your vehicle.

Also, IIRC, Hidden Valley is one of the yards located in Maricopa Az which is just south and somewhat west of Phx area. IF its the one I'm thinking of, its been years since I've been there but they had lots of older vehicle then. I don't know if they have new stuff (I found a brake spring for a '49 dodge there).
