1- Go to the O'Reilly Auto Parts website http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/home.oap
2- In the "search" box just under their name type 121G as though it were a part number and hit enter.

Pretty Cool! :mrgreen:

Now you show me where I can get one. I really needed one in a bad way back in the late 80's.

Good price, but...

...kinda ruins it. I suppose their attorneys made then write that (in bold, no less). Fits the '81 through '83, though.

Non-functional, eh? Reminds me of the Authentic Germain Lugers in PM when I was a kit (early '50s) that didn't have firing pins and were non-functional display items. As I recall, the same companies sold Authentic Germain Luger Firing Pins for a couple bucks, for the collector on a budget ("...own a piece of history...).

It's sort of frightening that JD actually found this listing. What were you searching for when it came up?

I don't think you want to know the answer to that question. You can't unhear or unread something.

Obviously you do not understand the nuances of time. You have all the time in the world to wait because once you have one of these you simply go back to the point needed. It doesn't matter how long you wait as you can always get back to the same time, therefore it's better to be fully prepared than to rush things.

I need to find a "tongue in cheek" smiley. My humor is too subtle.

Now THAT'S funny!

After you search for part #121G, try searching for the upgrade, part #121GMF
What? Doesn't EVERYBODY look for Flux Capacitors on the internet? Really, one cannot just ponder cute goats all the time.

As for Tom's "haven't got time to wait" comment... Is that you in the picture???
