T-5 where can I find one that is affordable

[cardude]

I Live in Portland Oregon and have been looking at ford wreckers and general wrecking yards and I cannot seem to find any any time I call. When I do find one its in seattle or Cali and they want $700 - 800 for one out of a pistol whipped car. what am I doing wrong, I know they are out there and by all posts I have read fairly reasonable, I just dont really want to pay hundreds in shipping cost.

any suggestions would be appreciated

You just have to keep an eye open and look in the papers and stuff. Do you have any pick-n-pull kind of places around where you live? If you can find a T-5 there, you can get them pretty cheap. The only problem is that T-5's are hard to find in a pick ur part lot.

I know ebay is a bad place but I got a t-5 off there for 275 shipped. I had to purchase a bell for it but its good to go.
