Junkyards

[L Boogie]

Can anyone recommend any good sized Junkyards besides Miyagi's at the Seawall and the one by gate 3?

I just bought a Surf and I'm trying to find random parts for it.

Have you tried the bases?

[DoctorP]

There are several out on the way to Hamahiga Island.

There are a few small ones around the sunabe area. I'm not sure which one is Miyagi's but I think it's the one I was at yesterday once I got a new door handle for my prelude.

Good luck finding anything for a surf. American's love those (for some odd reason) so parts are hard to find. If you do find them, they tend to charge more for them. LOL people also charge way too much for a surf in the first place!

Try Kinser towers gate. Right across from LTO. They usually have Surfs.
What part u lookin for?

[L Boogie]

Looking for clear corner lights, clear bumper lights, and clear tail lights, also a green rear driver's side door without rust, a brush guard, and maybe a rear bumper or peices that are rust free...and some floor mats but I'll probably just get those off ebay since the prices for floor mats are ridiculous here.

Forgot to add, those are for a 91.

You can also try talking to smaller garages/repair shops. They often have connections with the auto wreckers. Ask about chuuko parts.

Damn man...just buy a new one! :rolleyes:

But I like mine.

Just bought it...rare 3Y 2.0 liter 4cylinder engine (the one that DOESN'T blow headgaskets), 5 speed, only one rust spot on a door, and it's only got 95,000 km on it. It's in really good condition considering what I spent for it.

And I'm not a man :D

It's just a term...kinda like DUUUUUUUUUDEEEEEEE!:thumbup1:

Yeah, sounds like a real steal! :rolleyes:

You could do better to buy another truck and transplant the engine. If you have that much rust, there's gonna be other problems...but do what you like. There are surf's everywhere over here, you should find one easy enough.

With that said...clear lenses (lights) are not stock equip, so looking at a junk yard probably won't get you much. You would do better to order those online. I suggest using j.c. whitney (http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/StoreCatalogDisplay/c-10101/s-10101) or some other online source.

I use fosters yard for like 95% of all my fixes

[L Boogie]

Yeah I went to foster yesterday and managed to find the door I was looking for, completely rust free. I'll definitely be back there again. The guys there were totally helpful. Now I just have to gut the door and move everything from the rusted door into the new one. Fun fun.
