    Hello everyone, I've been receiving e-mails from someone in Mexico trying to find parts for there car. I don't know spanish at all so I was hoping I could find someone who can help them out.
    There e-mail is Kristal M. Rivera Soto syndie25@hotmail.com

    and the message I received last was this:
    Hello I am again, I feel it by the annoyance. This either he will continue trying to write or the English as he can thanks for all the attempt. The aid that I need is that my husband does not obtain the part of under maverick that calls to him (Bush Dog) not as you know it but you do not know I am going to try to be able the ideal name to see if you know as it is. Moan the annoyance thanks bye… I wait for answer

    Thanks for you help!

    I do speak spanish, but I didn't understand what she tried to say. Maverick parts aren't hard to come by at a junkyard. I've only been in one junkyard and I saw 20 mavericks/comets laying around, and I didn't go further, if I had I'd have seen like 10 or 20 more, maybe. Stuff like sportmirrors are the hardest to find in good shape.

    Yea, I gotta admit I got a laugh out of that, too. :D

    From what I gather, they are looking for something underneath the car that they are describing as being a "Bush Dog", and are attempting to explain that they know that's not the name we actually call it. What the heck is a Bush Dog?

    Bush dog, think synonym since it's a foreign language and it may have gotten mis-translated?

    For what it's worh, there's a Bush Dog at the st. louis zoo!!!!

    i just don't see how they want one of these for their maverick

    That critter would make for an interesting guard dog, although I don't think that's what she's looking for.
