Anyone have an OB Cadaver close to SC
 
Looking for a damaged shell donor car with a good passengers side frame rail close to Charleston SC.
I didnt find anything in my local dismantlers.
Found one in NC but the cost to have someone cut it out, Ship it and the part cost makes this unreasonable.

Bump

Have a rail....save a whale....

Buller.......Buller.....

I guess some fair number of us wonder what part specifically you are referring to in your request. A picture of what you have or what you need would work wonders I think

I may be wrong, but -

Unless you find one in a salvage yard, your best bet is to purchase an entire parts car for $1500-2000. It will cost that much for just the part you need to be removed & shipped.

Local scrap metal guys cut cars in half with a Sawzall and Torch blade, but I don't know if that would work for what you need.

Problem is that many with a parts car don't know, what you need exactly, or how it needs to be removed. Clarify those two issues and you are much farther down the road.

uBoat you are correct, That is why I asked if anyone had a "damaged shell" and located close to South Carolina.
This would allow me to pay for just the part and since I could remove it and no shipping involved it would be affordable.
I dont want to cut up a good frame to patch a damaged one.
If a good straight shell was available local I would go that route but it seems the non sunroof cars are few and far between.

I will see if I can post a picture of what I need.

Here is what I am looking for to repair my frame.
It is Item 5 which is made up of several parts.

For to mention I need the passengers side and it can be cut just behind the stabilizer mount.

Hit me up if you can't find what you need. I have an '86 basket case but it is complete. I need to swap out the rear suspension. You can have it for 2k and come out money ahead if you part off the major components. I need it for another couple months.

neil30076 01-21-2014 04:45 PM

Old body, old bugger, usually a 928 before 198x.
Definitely not an an S4 - 87 -on.
