Being cheap about car service just isn't a good idea. Any problem can be lethal with a car, and as all drivers know only too well, near misses are usually a result of both cars being able to perform. It doesn't take a lot to turn a shopping trip into a trip to the hospital, and that's definitely not cheap.
There is a vast resource of used car part vendors online. They will usually sell parts for very cheap prices and in bulk quantities. For flea market junkies, your first trip may be to the weekend flea market. You can find many treasures at flea markets, such as vintage parts. salvage yards are also a great place to start because the parts are often in great condition. salvage yards make their money by purchasing the car bodies and the working parts from vehicles. Used ca part recyclers will also provide you with a great deal of vehicle parts for a very cheap price.
Aftermarket car parts come in two variations. The first is simply a generic form of the OEM part, much like generic pharmaceuticals compared to name brands. The second is an accessory for a car such as cold air intake systems for the engine, racks to carry bikes and so on. There isn't much debate that this second form of aftermarket car parts is fine, but the first variation is the area where contention starts.
It is essential for your vehicle's health and safe driving, that you purchase an authentic OEM Accessory. It will save you a lot of time, and money, not to mention aggravation in the long run. For some things in life, an imitation is good enough. With cars this is not so. At the end of the day, a car is not just a convenient mode of transport, it can transform into a deadly weapon. Cars that are kited out with car parts that are not of the highest quality, will cause the car to malfunction, which could lead to, G-d forbid, a road accident.
Because you aren't in the wrecked car business and because no one teaches what to do in an accident, this is the point where you are about to be charged hundreds of dollars in fees for something you can get for free!
After determining the relative value of the car, confirm that all the paperwork is current and correct. Check to make sure the title reflects the ownership and conforms to the specifications of the vehicle itself, such as make, model, year, and VIN numbers. The reasons for this are to avoid any legal issues relating to the sale later and for tax time recordkeeping.
Barter or Exchange Services--If you have some type of talent or services you can trade off for car repair, try it. Perhaps you are good at cleaning. Offer to clean in exchange for car repair. You would be surprised these days what works!
city auto wreckers are probably the last place you might think of when buying great classic cars. Still, a junkyard holds some very funky treasures. Just a reminder when shopping at junkyards: do expect to find these cars in a deplorable condition. So even if you buy them at a very low price, prepare yourself for a pretty expensive restoration. And of course, do not buy cars that are just plain trash. Leave scrap yards near me that are degraded by rust to Mother Nature.
You know the exact places I am talking about. I am sure you have passed one or two and thought about how unsightly these places are. Most of them are covered by an outside fence but still you are perfectly aware of what lurks behind that fence. This vehicle graveyard is a precious source holding a plethora of car parts for your exact vehicle. If the insurance company can put these parts on your car when they repair it, why should it be any difference for you?
Another option for kit parts is old cars. Enthusiasts do refurbish every part of an old car. For example, VW Beetle is one of the most popular 'donor' vehicles. The VW chassis has its own advantages. One can remove the car body while leaving the inner mechanical parts in place. The body of a sports car or an exotic car can be fitted on to the chassis. Beach buggy (dune buggy), Sebring, Bradley GT, etc are famous kit cars built on VW chassis.
