Anyone know any junkyards?

I wasn't sure where to put this, it's on the topic of DSMs but kindof off topic as well so I figured I'd post it here.

I don't know of any junkyards so I'm asking around. Anyone know of any junkyards or a 1GA part-out because I need a passenger side fender and door, and maybe a rear bumper.

I asked family a friends but the ones they know of don't have the parts I'm looking for.

It's a long shot, but maybe someone knows something or someone in this forum that can help me out. I figured I'd get my car patched up with my holiday money and give myself a gift

Thanks in advance

U-pull had a ton of 1gb stuff there when I went there. Check google for the #'s. There's 2 locations of u-pull, I only went to one.

U-pull north of St. Paul, located in Rosemount????? Doesn't make sense to me.


They have a location in East Bethel and Rosemount. Don't bother with calling as they will not answer questions as to what they have in stock. Typically you will go there looking for something and not find it. The cars get run through quickly. If you look on their site, they list the vehicles and the dates they arrived. Sometimes you can get lucky and find a car with parts remaining but that is usually not the case. I have stripped many 1g dsms from the rosemount location back in the day...

John's is located in Blain but they are one of the more expensive places to buy. Don't plan on going to the yard and pulling much as they pull most of the "Valuable" parts and stock them. They sell most of their inventory on car-part.com, you will note they are always have the most expensive parts in a category. Best bet is to wait on here for someone parting one or check out U-pull for a recent vehicle. If you are in a hurry, look on the above site.

I would start with a WTB ad on this site.

Re: Anyone know any junkyards?

Thanks for the info,

I already have a WTB thread on here a while ago when I first got into the accident. I also look pretty frequently on here for a part out but no one has one.

Dang it's like when you don't need parts everyone is having a part out, when you do need parts NO ONE has a part out.
