Locate an Auto Repair Shop in provo, Utah

It's not a car that a wrecking yard or a collector would be likely to save unfortunately, so if it was junked some years ago, it's probably gone. But there's always the one in a million shot of calling the yards in Provo and asking if they even HAVE a 1980 Mustang. They should be able to check inventory pretty easily. Most wrecking yards don't want 80s cars, as there is little profit in keeping them. Just for fun, I looked for a fender for an '80 Mustang in Utah by using www.car-part.com, but there was nothing. Maybe you could search for a hood, or other large body part, and see if any '80s come up in Utah.

I'm trying to locate my first car, a 1980 Mustang. Any ideas? I do have the VIN #, I know it was impounded in Provo, UT and never re-registered so my guess is it's sitting in a salvage yard somewhere. All I have called don't seem to be willing to work with me. Is the only way to find it going to be through hours and hours of walking junkyards?

I purchased a new 2010 Acadia SLT 2 on June 15, 2010. I bought the car because I had such a positive experience with my Chevy Tahoe (115,000 miles without a single problem). The car (with 725 miles) was running great until yesterday. When I started the car remotely, it sounded like the transmission was grinding. It settled down and started to run smooth. I drove it to a store 3 miles from home. On the way home, when I accelerated, the engine made a terrible screeching sound. The sound stopped when I decelerated. To make a long story short, as I pulled into my driveway, the engine seized with a loss of all electrical and electronics. Also, light smoke with a burning smell started coming from the engine. I called OnStar and had the car towed to my dealer in Provo, UT. I just got off the phone with service and the manager said it didn't look good--the engine was probably torched and needed to be replaced. Or, he said, it could be something simple -- he would get back to me when he knew. So, assuming the worst case scenario, what are my options. I don't want a car when a replacement engine--couldn't that effect value? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

A white one, in the wild, cruising the interstate (and seemingly keeping up) in Utah down around Provo. Texas plates. There was a fuchsia Nissan Cube right behind it advertising some local outfit. Made for an odd parade. 900 mile road trip yesterday, and that's all I noticed.

As soon as I got good gas in Nevada and Utah the Sequoia mileage jumped up. Highest 19.34 MPG last tank 18.85 MPG. Averaging between 75-80 MPH. Most of Utah on Interstate 15 is posted 75 MPH and several sections are now 80 MPH. Gas prices: Mesquite Nevada $2.76 Provo Utah $2.64 Rawlins Wyoming $2.41 The colors driving on 189 out of Provo Utah were beautiful We are headed to Mt Rushmore in the morning. We logged 1071 miles since noon Sunday.
