Where can you find a car part that a dealer doesn't make any more? Is there someone that will make it? I've been checking junk yards for about a year for a part and no one has it. |

I'm almost at the point of dumping the car because of a part that doesn't cost $100. |

first of all, which part for what car? it helps to know what im looking for before i start looking. but in most cases, you can use carparts.com to search all the junkyards across the country. if you cant find it on there, you have little chance of finding it at all |

No, you idiot, she's to young to drive. rock auto is one of the best sources for car parts outside of the big 4 (autozone, napa, advanced and oreilly) youre not a very smart man, but you do eat those chocolates with a certain lust that i just cant deny |
