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. |

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. |

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.
