Find Old Antique Classic Muscle Car Parts ONLINE

Whether you are looking for parts for Your Antique, Classic or Special Interest car.... or just need a parking light lens for your Wife's Grocery Getter,
IT'S ONLINE.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

A computer with internet access.

Step 1

Need a part to finish that Classic 1957 Chevy? maybe a Bracket to hold the headlight bezel on your 1967 GTX, A car cover for your corvette or just some Fuzzy Dice for your PINTO?
You can find it ONLINE!

You just need an internet connection and some time.
Step 2

Begin, by doing an internet search for you Year, Make and Model.
Be specific.

For example: Let's say you need a Grille assembly for your 1954 Buick. Type in 1954 Buick Grille. If that doesn't work try 1954 Buick PARTS,
Or JUST 1954 ..
Likely, you will get a result for a BUICK CLUB. This can be a GREAT way to find parts. Especially "Hard to FIND" parts.

Just click on the "Contact Us" link. Tell them what you are looking for.
Step 3

If that fails... try Online Auctions and Classified Boards such as Craigslist!
Most of them use "SEARCH" engines. Just type in WHAT you are looking for. Try a few years before or after your year... if you need to. Anyone with a similar make and model might know where to find what you need. For example: if you need a back window for a 1967 Mustang Fastback, try 1968 also. Hollander manuals are a good "What fits what" resource.
Junkyards are all linked these days as well. Try them. The "Network" can find almost anything.

Just keep at it, until you find what you are looking for.
Step 4

Finally,
If all else fails.... you can HIRE a Parts Finder. There will be a mark-up, but it just might be worth it.
Ask JAY LENO! He paid DEARLY for a Supercharger for one of his Duesenbergs. But then again, when was the last time you saw a Duesenberg Supercharger sitting in someone's JUNKPILE?
