Finding traditional Auto Parts
Bill Siekert is the owner and head mechanic at B&M Okinawa. Bill explained that some of the automotive services provided on bases nearby are priced a little high because they are run under contract and frankly, they have a bit of a monopoly.
Shop around for the best deals. While you may be in a hurry or desperate to remove the car from the backyard, it would be important that you take the time to look at the different deals available for the car. Different junk car removal service providers will be offering varied prices for the junk car. In this case, you can take advantage of the variations in the prices and shop around. Call each of the dealers and ask about the prices they are offering for the junk car. Compare the prices and settle for the best.

You might think that "aren't the cars abandoned at the junkyard for a cause?" This may well surprise you but though their engine doesn't perform any more most of the parts may still be useful. This being the situation, compared to buying costly spares from the manufacturing plant you might have spare parts from that car at the junkyard.

Always keep in mind that a commission, known as the buyer's premium, may be added to your item purchase. Where I live in Upstate New York, the buyer's premium is usually 10%. So, for example, if you are the high bidder and get your "treasure" for $100, remember that it is really costing $110. We have auctions in this area running from NO BUYER'S PREMIUM to 10% BUYER'S PREMIUM IF PAYMENT IS BY CASH OR CHECK AND 12% BUYER'S PREMIUM IF USING A CREDIT CARD. Some auction houses have even higher buyer's premiums so always check the auction ad to avoid "surprises".
We returned the next day to pick up the reconditioned crank, the cleaned and freshly painted block, and intake manifold and heads. These were not the original heads but were exact replacements that had been reconditioned with new valves, properly ground mating surfaces and then compression tested. On the way back we stopped in at the auto parts store and picked up some new rings for the pistons, a gasket set for this engine, gasket sealer, engine oil and filter and of course, the over size bearings. After salvage yards and ends had been added to our shopping list we returned to the garage and began the reassembly process.
