Write About Everything

If your car is just around 10 to 12 years old, there is a big chance that you can find everything you need from the recycler’s place. The good news about recycled spare parts is that recyclers would be happy to sell you the parts you need for a fraction of their original price. Most recyclers even give warrantees on the spare parts they are selling so that it would be easy for you to return or replace the parts that are defective or are not really suitable for your car.

Believe it or not, you might be able to sell your used tires. If they are in usable shape, but simply need a patch, a junkyard might be willing to buy them from you in order to repair and then resell them. In fact, you can actually make quite a bit of money selling used tires to the right junkyard if you shop around to find one that will pay a decent price. Some people have used this to bring in a secondary income for their families, placing ads in the local papers collecting other people’s used tires for free, and then reselling them to a local 1986 lincoln town car.

Work out deals with your local scrap yards in advance. The spot price for metal is generally the best price you can get with a large homogenous quantity of some metal. You’ll likely be bringing in many different types of metals and the quantities may be limited to what you find or what you can haul. Work out a deal where the yard gives you a good price in exchange for consistent influx of scrap metal.

The costs of raw materials such as oil and aluminum have risen, which in turn seem to have affected the cost of production. The manufacturers of automotive wheels and tires are worst hit as a consequence. On similar lines producers of molded plastic parts and automotive accessories for cars have also taken a beating.

Many people have tons of metal (literally!) and scrap just lying around their yards, or in their garage and old sheds that they just want to get rid of for a number of reasons.

Since you save more than 50% of the cost value at times, this method could be really beneficial. It’s not just good parts for cars and trucks that are found here. You could also repair your lawn mower this way. Moreover these shops have online stores too, so it won’t be difficult at all to find stores offering used auto parts.

Stop digging too much into stale newspaper. Use it only for keeping you updated. Filling your mind with depressing stories of past, the first thing in morning, is the worst treatment you can give to yourself who is naturally programmed to be always forward looking.

Visit your local scrap yard. There you can buy things at scrap prices, even if the item you buy is still useful. I know someone who buys power equipment at scrap prices, fixes them up and then sells them or uses the renewed equipment for trading with friends and neighbors for things he wants.

Note how I said shopping but not buying. I would use and abuse the internet to find out as much competitive information on the particular part you are looking for. Then before buying the research for the best deal. And don’t forget to include the shipping cost into your budget.

Simply stop junk, fried, spicy and oily food. I cannot stress further the importance of simple, nutritious, healthy food. Our body is made out of food we eat. We grow from a baby of few inches to a full-grown adult only through food we eat. Food is the raw material used to build our building that we call body. How can you expect a strong building to be built if you use inferior raw material from junkyard?
