cheap parts

Don't know if its been covered in forums before. But has anyone ever heard of a place called Pull-A-Part?? Man this place is GREAT!! Got two seats out of a 91 N/A for 20 bucks a piece. They also had the engine still in the car that you could get for $175, only thing is you had to pull it yourself. Got the entire center console including the radio for 25 bucks.

^^^ Quick question (I'm not being a smart ***) but are you posting those pics as your signature? You can go to User CP & make a sig that will add your pics at the bottom of every post, but please, for the courtesy of all, don't use those huge pics. Keep them small. Gracias!

I just pulled an axle for the Integra yesterday. ack, took forever.
The Pick n Pull by me has actually had a Z32, a Z31 and a couple of 280's in nearly whole condtion. Of course I find all this after I sell my Z.

Sweet site. Too bad for me that they don't operate in my neck of the woods. We have very few junkyards around where I live, unfortunately.

Sunday is my junkyard day. Last week I found a 280zx, 4 Z31's, and a 240z stripped to next to nothing. One of the 300zx's was an 87 turbo, so I might go next weekend and get the diff out of it. I love junkyards.
