IS it a wagon or sedan? Happen to remember the color? Freind wants to replace bumpers. Car Condition?

I've no idea, I was going based on their website lot inventory system, but it isn't that specific.

edit @7pm:

Home from work now. Lessee... so the two places I know about with online inventory are those guys (Above) and LKQ Self Service.

So LKQ SS Denver (see also: LKQ SS Aurora) has a 2001 Mazda Protege 4door AT Gold @ 6100 N Federal Blvd "available on 10/4/2012" which may mean it's moved to the part of the lot where you can have at it with your tools.

It's hit or miss with these places. Some cars are well-represented and relatively intact, other stuff (civics) gets completely picked over fast. It's the zeitgeist of dead car reasons and live car needs. Some have been in gnarly collisions, others really do look pristine or have minor collision damage and you just assume someone gave up on it. It's a $2 entrance cost to go in and check it out, put tools on parts that look useful.

...has one but i think they want a pile of cash for it... may be able to talk them down.. and it may be cheaper for the short block only. Check out http://www.car-part.com they inventory car parts from junkyards all over the country.

if your block is rebuildable.. i bet it would be much cheaper and better than buying a used/ready to break block. lol... learned that lesson once.
