has anyone seen an fc in a junkyard in illinois i have been looking for some parts from a junk car but havent been able to find one i checked pick an pull and victory auto wreckers. any ideas?

 

When I lived in Illinois, I found a Pick n Pull accross the river in Missouri that had one FC. It was COMPLETELY stripped down to the bone. It seems like they're really hard to come by in junkyards. Good luck with your search.

 

I found one at the pick and pull in gurnee...

stripped to the bone as well. Only one I've ever found at a junkyard here. They are pretty rare.

 

This site is very useful for any car(s) that you're trying to find parts for at a local junk yard/all around the US. I came across it years ago.

thanx for the input guys sadly i used to c one or two in the junkyard every time i went to the but i guess like u said there getting rare

 

for sale section, can be quite affordable...

 

agreed. That's where I get all my parts. That or local community guys. Start posting around in the midwest section, there are a few rotor heads around Chicago with random parts for sale.

 

ik i just wanna feel the thrill of finding an fc in the junkyard n having first picks on all the parts n just enjoying the feeling of saving some parts of this fc b4 it get thrashed

 

Good luck on that one. Last one I seen was in lockport. Interior was fully stripped already and no wheels, or brakes. Come to think of it, it had a manual rack, and I took the s4 lower control arms and end links.

 

Wow, I didn't even realize there were that many junk yards in IL. I did find a couple FC's in MI though. Basically completely stripped. I was able to snag the brake caliper brackets I needed though.

For sale section is where its at.
