Salvage Yard

Any recommendation on salvage yards for our cars?

Thanks,

Sandro

Wasn't there a place in FL or the South East that specialized in RX7 recycling? I used them once 10+ years ago for an FC.

Most FDs that go to salvage are stripped apart and sold off as parts pretty quickly. The few salvage yards that I talked to who knew what a 3rd gen was said they don't hang around long.

goto www.car-part.com and search for a large part (like hatch,door or seats) and order results in distance to your zip code.

I agree.. how ever "comma" (pause for effect)

there is this place http://www.rx7salvage.com/

I was just there a few weeks ago .. he has wall to wall 7's as you can see from the aerial view there were about 15 fd's there, but he is pretty $$$$$$$$ but in side that house is stacked with mazda parts as well so if there is something that you need..

Here in the Kansas/Oklahoma/Texas/Missouri area you get laughed at if you ask for FD parts at salvage yards, er...excuse me..."automotive recycling centers".
