I found a small, one guy shop in Austin, 300$ cash. I was a little worried before I picked it up but he did a pretty good job, some runs and what not but I wasn't looking for perfect.

Ha ha! You'd already answered my question last month. The Pick'n'Pull near me in Waco is closing down, so I'll have to make a run this weekend. If anything's left.

Went to C&C last month for the first time in like a year, it was fun. I saw a C70 once with the top half-down, which I thought was cool. It's a very pretty mechanism. Otherwise, haven't seen anything more than a hopped-up C30 in the parking lot.

Oh lol. Well let me know before you drive to Austin and I can check the junkyard for you if I have time. They usually have a pretty decent selection of s/v 70's but I'm sure Dallas has better.
