What Parts Can You Get From a Car Wrecker?

If this is your first time buying second hand car parts, you may be wondering what kind of parts you can actually get from a car wrecker?

The short answer is that you can get almost any part as long as that part has not been damaged on the particular vehicle you are looking for.

The way car wreckers work is that they will buy cars from people when those cars no longer serve their purpose. Often times this means that the car has been in an accident, or has some damage that was not economical to repair.

At that point the owner usually just wants to get rid of it so they sell it to a car wrecker.

When this happens, the car wrecker will take the car to the place where they dismantle the cars, and remove parts that people want to buy.

During this process they will check the parts to make sure that the parts they are selling are actually in good condition. The parts that are damaged or not in operating condition don't get sold, they usually just stay on the car until all the good parts are removed and then get sent to scrap with the car body.

Now, that being the case, you can practically find any parts you need at a car wrecker. Most parts on cars are fine to reuse even though they are used, so as long as the car wrecker has them in stock, you'll be able to buy them. This can include:

  • Engines and engine parts
  • Gearboxes and transmissions
  • Cooling system parts like radiators
  • Body panels such as bumpers, guards, doors and more
  • Head lights and tail lights
  • Trim pieces
  • Interior panels such as door cards and seats
  • Suspension components
  • And more
