Auto Parts From Junkyards

I had no trouble finding a rock pile. Hitting the snake with a rock, in the head, was another matter. The first rock hit the snake on the back, behind the stick. The next rock hit the stick. But, the rattlesnake never had a chance. Robert's grip on the Y stick held fast. By the time I had exhausted the rock pile, both the snake's head and the mouse were nowhere to be found.

Let us start with ease of obtaining. Obviously newer car parts will be easier to get than older ones. A friend of mine still has a 1975 Pontiac Lemans. To obtain parts for this car he has to literally go to junk yards and even online. No new car dealers keep parts beyond 10 years or so and even auto parts stores limit their inventory to cars under 20 years. A 30 year old vehicle is almost impossible to find parts for. Plus, if you can find the part, depending on where you get it, the cost could be anywhere from 20 to 100% over the original part cost. To say that late model car owners are taken advantage of would be a gross understatement.

In addition there are many local junk or salvage yards at your disposal. The great part is that the price is almost always lower, and it is delivered to you the same day. The downside is there are no guarantees on used parts. Although many reputable yards do provide a replacement or refund in case the part doesn't perform satisfactory, the time replacing it again is lost.



Before you get down to finding a scrap yard, there are things you must do to ensure that you squeeze out the last bit of profit you can make out of your scrap car. After all, why let some one else profit out of your car, if there is any money in the car it is only fair that you should make it. Scrap car yards have no requirement for anything that is not metal, they want only metal and anything else will only bring down the money you make out of it. So before you send your car over to the yard you should dismantle it and remove everything that is not metal. And, while you're at it you should also remove those parts that you think you could sell through ebay.

You Can Read Reviews: Reviews give you a clearer vision about the quality of products, what to look for? which products to avoid? etc. With online shops you have the option to surf through reviews of professionals, as well as read what customers who bought the products had to say.

If you have a video camera that works, use it. If you can provide lighting with the work lights in your shop use them. If you can make the videos with people on hand (including yourself) do it. Don't look to hire actors or spend a lot on production.

The Salvage Yard. Let's admit it: there isn't anything wrong with going to the car part com used parts to find the part you need. My '78 VW Rabbit's window handle broke and I snagged one off of a junker for just a few bucks. Still, if you are looking for a radiator, engine, exhaust stuff, or anything else that actually runs, you risk that the part will fail soon after you place it in your car. Naturally, the price you pay through the junkyard should be the lowest price going.

It helps to know ahead of time what exactly you need. Whether you're building something from scratch or looking to replace parts that you already have, it makes a difference when you go to actually get them. Replacements may be cheaper than parts you plan to use for construction, or vice versa. So the first step is making a list.
