Especially for older cars or antique vehicles being restored, used car parts may very well be the only answer to your parts needs. You may not find any auto supply outlet with access to car parts for a ’49 Studebaker pickup or a ’32 Ford, but you may very well find salvage yards with cars that are being sold for parts.
If the salvage yard isn’t your thing, there are other options. Often, salvage cars are sold privately by their owners. eBay can be a great tool in finding these privately-sold salvage cars. Websites like vehixx may also list salvage cars being sold privately.
Finding cheap auto parts should be the aim of every car owner and enthusiast. Below are listed 7 tips that will help you find the cheap auto parts you deserve.
Kids play, and can be quite mischievous. They play hide and go seek, soldiers, etc. They sometimes get themselves into trouble by crawling into places that they shouldn’t be in.

The DC motor that I obtained online cost $49.99, and is rated at 1150rpm and 38 volts (DC). According to the specifications, this motor would produce about 13 volts at approximately 390rpm. That was good enough for the wind power unit that I was building.
If you want to obtain scrap metal from other people, the best way to do it is to advertise. Flyers are a great advertisement took because you can put all your information on one piece of paper. A phone number and a list of scrap you are looking for is a great start. If people start calling you and telling you they have more than what is on the list, you are in business. Once they get to know you, they will be a regular customer and you can either pick up scrap as needed or schedule weekly pickups, whatever works best for you. When collecting scrap, keep the area you are keeping it in tidy so you are not hurting yourself due to clutter.
