How To Recycle Your Old Car
Junk yard jewels. I have a buddy who likes to go to the junk yard to find replacement parts for his vehicles. He doesn't always find what he wants, but he has been able to pull several starters off from some of the junkers. Some work, some don't while others may work for awhile and then crap out a few months later. If you have plenty of time and luck is on your side then this can be an option for you.
Remember you get what you pay for. There are many online sellers listing car parts that appear to be a bargain, however it is important to note that these may not last very long, or worse still, they may put you and your family in danger.
It does cost some money and there are some hoops to run through. The washer and dryer should be installed close to existing water lines, and you'll also have to run a 220 volt electrical line in for the dryer. Building codes in your area may also require you to put in a floor drain.
Spoilers! Of course this is one of the easiest and most noticeable performance car parts that you can add to your car. You can fit them on yourself or have it done for you. Find the best spoilers on the Internet, based on the brand and type of your car.
A new exhaust pipe. Think of the way your car would look if you added a polished shiny new exhaust pipe to it. It's easy to do and a professional will be able to fit on in less than half a day.
junk car buyers If you are needing parts for a truck that is a littler older then your best bet might be take a trip down to your local junk yard. This can sometimes be a little frustrating because it can take awhile to sort through many different parts to find the one you want. However, it can also be rewarding when you discover a hard to find part.
Do- It-Yourself--Of course, this is not for everyone. If you can do mechanical work, change your own oil and filter. Many specs and repair manuals can be found online for those wanting the challenge. This will save labor costs. Also look for discounted parts, including parts found at junkyards. Don't forget eBay also has cheap pricing on many auto parts.
After a car accident, depending on how serious the accident was, your insurance company will determine if your car is a total loss or if it can be repaired. If you own an older car, the chances are high that if the insurance company considers it would cost more to repair it than the car is actually worth, they will total it. However, this is not always the case.
