Hint for the Yard Dogs. You never know what you will find in the oddest places. 200

CHECK EVERY CAR!!!

That's it. I've been yarding for probably about 5-6 years, in that time I've found at least 15-20 sets of IPD bars. 80-90% of those have been under cars that you wouldn't look at twice on the street.

Today was no exception, beat up old B-21 '82 GL with nothing obvious to make you think it was anything other than a worn out old junker. Took a look at it on GP and what do you know, a set of 25/22mm bars and to top it off a full set of H-4/H-1 lights with adapters. Closer inspection did indicate it was a well cared for car, 134 conversion sticker and a replacement wiring harness showed someone did at one time care.

Last month it was a set of 1800/120 bars under a trashed old 120, and before that it was a set of 25/25s under a totally worn out '81 242.

Yards are like a box of chocolates, you never know what you wil find.
