Heading to the junkyard tomorrow - Any ideas on what to look for?

I have planned a trip to the local junkyard tomorrow, and was wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what to get other than what I already got on my list, which is:

A Taurus/Lincoln electric fan
A York compressor (from a Ford Fairmount or Mustang 5.0L V8 for OBA)
Dodge/Jeep 136A alternator (for the electric fan conversion)
Jeep Wrangler Driving Lights (or similar)

If I run across a Ford 8.8 axle, I may just grab taht up also, but I still have not decided, as I have no way to transport it...

Anything else I should look up?

If you can't find a compressor on the fords. Dig around in old volvos they used the 210 for AC.
 
Grab the injectors of an early to mid '90s Mustang or Crown Vic with the v8. They'll plug right in to your 2.5L and are an improvement. Put the nozzles side by side and you'll see what I mean.

Those are the ones with the 4 ports per injector, right? I got the bosch ones for the mustang in mine... Got them when i chenged the fuel system a couple of months back.

If they have any full-size Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer there, they used the York compressor, I believe it's the same that is much sought after for on-board air... I could be incorrect, though, know it's a York, might be a different one.
 
I found myself a 95 Ford Taurus 3.8L with the 2-speed fan inside for $25... I could not find an alternator to run it, , but still, I was pretty happy with my find. Is anyone running an electric fan like this one off their stock alternator?
