Keep in mind that junkyards are similar to swap meets in that most prices are negotiable. This is especially true when you're buying parts that are not in good condition. Ask for a discount or offer a lower price. Junkyards will often agree just to move the inventory. That being said, you can expect to pay nearly half of the cost of a new part. For example, a water pump for a BMW 740i may cost $140 new. Expect to pay $70 (in cash) at the junkyard.

truck parts online Rims must meet or exceed the ACU-TRU Standard. ACU-TRU is the nation's first wheel and rim repair quality control system. Rim undergoes truing and wheels are double checked based on six categories: vibration, lateral run out, log port distortion to name a few. It must pass standard quality tests.

However, there are some people who worry that they might not be able to sell their cars to these services because they don't have a title for their car. This means, they don't have any official documentation that proves they own the car. There are many folks out there who have come across this problem, and aren't clear about whether or not they can sell their car to such services.

The Truth: This is completely false. Most local salvage yards are offering just.40 per pound for whole computer towers. This is less than 10% of what one can expect from high grade circuit boards per pound.

Kitchen base cabinets can be had for as little as $100 a piece, depending on width of the cabinets, number of doors, drawers, etc. If you plan to paint the cabinets, prowl the junk yard. I found a nice 30-inch, 2-door, cabinet base with a drawer the other week for ten dollars!

Magazines are also a great source for information. Grab any classic car magazine from the line at the grocery store or at your local bookstore and look through the classified section. In my hometown, there was also a "PennySaver" newspaper that you could buy down at the corner store that was strictly classified ads. This was a great help to dad and me.
