Junkyard part finder (testing the waters)

[Midn1ght Driv3r]

I apologize if this is in the wrong section - please move it if necessary.

Recently a friend and I have been regularly going around to junkyards in the area for fun and to find random parts that we've been needing.

Trying to test the waters out, would there be any interest for us to find specific parts for people who can't find the time to make it out or just can't find the parts in general?

Please leave any feedback or questions

What do junk yards usually charge per rim? $25

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

25 though for alum ive seen em go as high as 50ish

yesterday i picked up an SS/GXP 17in 5 spoke alum spare for clearing the big brakes for 30

just need to find another one

 

[99PONTIACGP]

Lets hope $25. I haven't made it to any yards yet, their pretty hard to find through Craigslist. I did find someone win 2 rims but need all 4.

I need a header panel for a 86 - 87 Buick Regal. I would go to the bone yard and look if I had the time.

You got a pic? I've got a spare 17 inch from a 06+ GP GT. polished IIRC

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

5 x 115, dead nuts W body....black 17in powdercoated 5 point star with MASSIVE protrusion to clear the large brakes
never had its cherry popped...
some chipping and marring of the powdercoat on the spokes but if it was stripped and the raised letters ground they would make superb skinny's for the TR, light as hell and we could run some 28in tall rear tires.
just put some moon discs on em for aerodynamics, and make the TR look fast even though it aint

a bit of a profile

found a buick aztek today with an intact front pumper, the aluminum one...

I was just at Morrison auto in Edgerton Wisconsin earlier this week they had a few GTO's, couple f-bodies, corvettes, just about every new car you could think of the guy I delt with his name was Will really cool guy. Prices were pretty reasonable.

Are those going to be used for skinnies?

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

if i can find another one it would be possible, the 17 inch rim is light and would let us run a large od tire (better fill the wheel well) without excessive sidewall height that leads to wandering/fishtailing in it.

btw a 94 v6 mtx SHO in white with tan interior is at aurora and yes its all intact though the manual shifter bezep n boot were gone the car was 95% intact

 

[Euro]

Anything else good in the Aurora yards? Any Regals or Centurys?

[Euro]

Sweet. I need to go find both front door lower window mouldings. Both mine are chipped and starting to peel/rust. I found 2 nice ones for the rears at the end of last year, so now the doors look different because of that.

[Turbocharged400sbc]

I could probably use the shifter out of it, and maybe the door handles.

 

[Mr_Roboto]

I'd have to double check next time I'm here but I think that there is a truck in the yard I go to in Joliet that's what you're looking for. Any parts in particular besides the PS box? I'd guess yours is a manual?
