1.  It does not hurt to post your own ad stating to others that you are seeking a classic car. This way you can list the make and model and even the year. If anyone with that car is trying to get rid of one, you may find yourself in luck. If you put yourself out there then at least you are making your request public. You might be surprised how often reverse advertising works for people.
2.  https://www.junkyardinventory.com/ . Let's admit it: there isn't anything wrong with going to the https://images.google.be/url?q=https://cajunkyardsnearme.com to find the part you need. My '78 VW Rabbit's window handle broke and I snagged one off of a junker for just a few bucks. Still, if you are looking for a radiator, engine, exhaust stuff, or anything else that actually runs, you risk that the part will fail soon after you place it in your car. Naturally, the price you pay through the junkyard should be the lowest price going.

If you've got parts that are worth some money, and in excellent condition, try putting a note on community bulletin boards in stores, the library, or wherever you can put one up. Online bulletin boards for your area are also good places to list car parts for sale. If you post your name, number, city, and your make and model year, you might connect with a mechanic who's been searching for your exact item. If your parts are the only ones around, you can make some good money.

It's just a matter of how far you would go to find what you?re looking for. The best way to get the best deal is to conduct extensive research. Look in motoring magazines and on web sites. Find lists of reliable junkyards and try to visit as many as possible.
7.  Today, everything is computerized with each item stored within a database. Every radiator, passenger seat, water pump, and stereo knob can be accounted for with a few clicks of a button. If you need to find a specific item, you won't be forced to spend hours digging through a dirty lot. Just ask an attendant to check the database. What's more, a lot of salvage yards are now connected through a network. If one location cannot find a component in their database, they can check the databases of other locations.
8.  There are a lot of aftermarket auto parts you can purchase and install on your own. A little homework before you start the project and you are good to go. Also a lot of suppliers have detailed instructions on the how to. I find it very satisfying to do the work myself. You get the feeling that you did it all! And it is always a good conversation piece. Although, if you have not attempted anything like this before, I always recommend a professional to do the install.

Once you have sold the car you may want to take a portion of the proceeds and hold a neighborhood barbeque for their pain and suffering.
