How to "Salvage yards"??

Re: One problem with that...

Wouldn't work in most I have been in lately. The columns and the seats ahve been pulled and in the warehouse. A seat that sits in the rain for 6 months isn't nearly as valuable as one in pristine condition in a warehouse.

Re: How to "Salvage yards"??

UJ, just to know, do they have list prices or it is a mere face to face deal? I suppose that with experience the yard owner knows those difficult items you are looking for...

Re: How to "Salvage yards"??

Depends on the yard, Roberto. Most yards are independently owned and the owner (or his on-site manager) set prices for parts and there you CAN 'dicker' over price.

Other yards are set-up on the 'U-Pull-It' basis. The cars in these places are in pretty sad shape because they have little/no supervision over people working in the yards and folks cut, break, rip this/that using their own tools to get to the item they want. In these yards, they usually have a pre-printed price list that covers the major parts...
