Search for local auto salvage yards. The Internet is a great place to find junk yards in your area. Enter "auto salvage yards" followed by the name of your city or town and check the results. If you're using Google, you'll also see a map returned that will pinpoint the exact locations of nearby yards. Pick up the phone and call each yard and explain what you own and what is wrong with your car. You may be asked about recent repairs and stand out features such as a customized grille, newer wheels and what type of audio system is present.
Every town has at least one junk yard, which it is commonly called an auto 1970 thunderbird because they salvage the parts. Some parts on these vehicles are not functional, but even the most dilapidated vehicles have something that is useful on the inside or outside.
My grandfather performed all the family errands including the grocery shopping. He would shop by the color and design on the labels. If a label was changed on the can he wanted to purchase who knows what he would end up with.
As a child, I remember standing outside in my yard waiting for my grandfather's battered truck with beat up wooden sides to come rumbling down the street. My sister and I, along with my two cousins that lived across the street, would scream for joy to see my grandparents.
So my father and I began our project that week and it was so much fun. I was so intrigued by everything. We found all of the parts to build the bike through yard sales and junk yards, it was just so cool. We pretty much paid 50 bucks to build a very nice sleek mini motorcycle that ran perfect, and looked brand spanking new. I was in charge of the sanding and painting. So when my father was getting the engine running, and fixing other things, I was sanding down this old rusty frame we found at the junk yard. Thing looked like crap at first! After a solid sanding job and some half descent paint, thing looked like we had just bought it. Hey, as they say, there's nothing like a good paint job!
It is always better to play it safe before you dig in. So, we strongly suggest that you be patient and run a small test before asking a manufacturer for 100 headlights. If you happen to have some spare genuinely used auto parts or you know someone that might have some you can try listing them on the web. It doesn't cost you anything and you will be rest assured that you are not wasting your money. To list your parts we suggest that you choose a website that specializes in the industry, allows you to pay on per-sold basis, and offers automatic re-istings.
You can generate a better return if the car has some custom parts or if it's a popular vintage or a highly popular commercial model which will be farmed for parts.
If you have the space, bring tables outside to get everything laid out priced. Cover overnight as you progress and then bring tables back into garage when you're done until the sale.
