Junkyard Day

[SirSilvia]

With a day off, what better thing to do then check out a junkyard.Went to Tarentum, PA to the Millerstown Pick-A-Part.http://www.picapartyard.com/

Friend of mine usually goes there for VW parts saw that they got a 240sx not too long ago, a '94 vert.Now for some pic whorage.Foreign sectiona random ASA wheel on a Saab or something. the only one left on the car lol.the 240 as it sat.The interior, with a tasty looking dash I might add.(non-HUD) Pic of the engine bay, there are a couple of hole down by the starter in the crankcase. This thing got Fooked

The trunk was bent, looked like a front and rear hit.The doors appear to be in ok condition.The front is mangled and bumper gone.The tail lights are in perfect condition the garnish had been debadged and someone put a badge from a Colonial The top surprisingly appeared to be in pretty good condition except the headliner started coming down on the passenger side and the rear window was replaced with tape and plastic.I snagged a center console bezel

Wow, that must suck. Searching for parts in the snow. Oh well, what sucks even more is not even being able to get into a junkyard because you aren't old enough

Btw, you should have snagged the dash. You could made some easy money on it. Everyone wants a clean dash.

including me, if its gone when/if I decide to get it. oh well. its missing the windshield vents but who cares lol I'm gonna call the guy tomorrow and see what the prices for the dash, tails, suspension parts (which are like new by the looks of it)

[SleepyHB]

Damn that's hardcore, I got me a clean dash while it was raining, but snow would've been too much for me.

[SirSilvia]

hahaha I wanted to go look for the couple of Q 45s they had, but I can't tell with all the snow and ice. I had nothing better to do and really hoping the vert was in salvageable condition and swap my good/working coupe parts to it.

[keith0486]

did you bring your shovel?

[SirSilvia]

did you bring your shovel?

sure did, left hand and right hand lol, there was an ice storm so there was a nice solid layer of ice.

[DRS_S13]

Dang,we have 2 of those junkyards down here. 1 is about a hour and a half south and another is about 2 hours north. haha.

[SirSilvia]

one here in Zelienople had like 5 240s then all got picked clean and scrapped. this one only had 1

[adrianfromthecastle]

omg haha... damn, I could never go to the junk yard in the snow.

[White Comet]

theres a yard in new ringgold that used to have like 8 s13s at a time, down to like 2-3 now

[captainfalco]

That vert has been there a while. My buddy snagged the throttle body from it months ago. I thought there was a red single cam there too, but they must have crushed it.

As for Q45's, there should be a few left there, I snagged the brakes and ignitors off a couple. There might a J30 there too if you want the diff.

I really like Millerstown, very cheap, but like all junkyards, there is a bunch of shifty looking characters that both work and frequent that area.

I hate Wagners, too expensive and everything is raped. I haven't been there in about a year, but I'm sure nothing has changed (i.e. cars and prices).

[hbpignosePA]

dude i wont work on a car outside yet alone go to a j-yard w snow on the ground

im hoping they dont crush the cressida in the yard near my house... i need a few things off of it but im not goin out when its this gross out

[SirSilvia]

theres a yard in new ringgold that used to have like 8 s13s at a time, down to like 2-3 now

working on getting a 300zx lsd and j30 axles, just waiting for an email back. Wagner's wanted $110 for a coupe trunk lid, $150 because it had the OEM spoiler on it. I laughed and walked away, and that was the last time i went there.

[SleepyHB]

Yea can't wait til it get warm again, junk yard are fun

Well, in your case SirSilvia it's fun all year round lol

[White Comet]

that's only like an hour from me, maybe I'll check that out

thats about how long i have to drive to get there but its worth it. you have to pay a few bucks to get in but prices are really good. i got a mint rustless wiperless hatch (in a rare color i might add) for $25

[SirSilvia]

oh sweet jesus I know what I'm doing next week do they have a site?

[QuicksilverFX]

grab me that steering wheel lol. i didnt have much luck looking at pull-a-part last time i went, i need to see if they have any more 240's lol

[SirSilvia]

you can have mine, little different style wheel, has cruise control on it.

[AutoShadow]

Nice find, yea...you should pick up that dash and the steering wheel and make some loot.

[White Comet]

[SirSilvia]

[Logan76]

Try AllForeignAutoParts in pittsburgh, they have some stuff occasionally, I got all my jeep parts from millers town and wanted to get the Q45 brakes but i couldnt get in to work on it another car was too close. If you see any EG hatch or coupe civics anywhere E-mail me and tell me please, I need a whole front clip.

[coupey]

I have a buddy of mine that said he saw an S14 at a junkyard in Chesterfield down by you.

[SirSilvia]

I went there initially hoping the vert carcass was in salvageable condition so i could haul the whole thing back to butler and swap everything over to it. Taking the vert to the track and droppin the top would've been sweet. gettin sideways in that would be so nice.

[SirSilvia]

Me and my buddy who has a damn nice eclipse were gonna road trip up to New York and go hunt around some junkyards.

[Logan76]

Millerstown wont sell whole cars silvia, did you see any civics?

[captainfalco]

They have lots of civics listed on their website, I don't know how often they update it though.http://www.picapartyard.com/Default_Inventory.aspx
