I'm wondering about going in on cars with other members. Say if I just wanted the driveline, but someone else wanted the engine from an STi...that would cut down prices....just wondering if youd go for that
EDIT: Just read that someone esle had the same idea

Hey dude, sounds like a great buisness, do you think you should buy these cars whole and part them out? Or does that not profit? I've seen a lot of people wanting parts from cars, but not the whole car because most people won't buy wrecked/rolled cars unless they are doing a project or is familiar with cars. But hey just an idea for ya, I'm sure some parts will sell like hotcakes!

) I'd need to apply for and change my license to include a dismantler license... which would mean I'd need a new space and all sorts of other stuff... permits and whatnot. I'm hoping to do this down the road a bit though. I think it would be fun!

'06 STi, 10K miles, entire driveline appears to be good (an appraisal would verify this), body is mostly FUBARED with a couple body parts re-usable. All wheels appear to be in good shape. The interior looks perfect with airbags intact.
This one is to be sold on the 30th. If interested let me know asap so we can make a game plan.
Also, just so everyone knows. I'm going to be gone from the 31st-4th and again from Sept. 15th-29th... so if you try to contact me during this time I'll get back to you when I'm home.
HP- PM me your number. I have questions for you regarding the car you need.
