Yellowpages?
or yellowpages.com? (EDIT) Points for vocab, though. "Venerable" is a goodie.

Yellowpages has gigantic listings of every auto wrecker and salvager. Who wants to deal with bitter 30-40 something year olds that have failed life and now feel intent on taking their misery out on you overcharging you for parts? Nah, I'm looking specifically for pick and pulls. Import or domestic, cheap or cheaper, but pick and pulls are where it's at.

Although I am of little faith on this one, Orthodox U-pull-it on Unruh street (not sure of the address, but it's the last lot before the river) has never done me wrong. Last time I was there, about a month ago, there was an MR2 turbo, an FD, almost every year DSM, and a few s13s, along with numerous other oddities, such as a Mighty Max. They have a huge stock that is not pick-n-pull, but they do rotate their stock, so it works out awesome.
Also, Gianna's (sp?) on Essington ave has saved my ass on quite a few occasions.

GI Auto Salvage Co Inc: 85 Bloomfield Avenue, Pine Brook, NJ 07058 (973-227-1100)
I took my first trip down to this place. A friend of mine's father suggested it to me. He gets most of his spare Civic parts from there. The junkyard was broken down into 2 sections: 1 pick and pull (a lot of complete neglect) and 1 fenced-off area that you are only allowed into with permission from the owner or accompanied by an employee. As far as cars go, it can be broken down into 4 categories. 1) Pickup trucks. Lots of them. Especially Ford F series. And of the F series, especially F-150s dating back to the very early 80s if not before that. I'm not a pickup specialist. 2) Japanese and Korean compacts and subcompacts. Accords, Civics, Elantras, whatever. They have a few. I saw a very clean and relatively unmolested fifth generation fifth gen Civic. There was a Subaru Outback, too. And while not a subcompact, I even saw an Eclipse. 3) Various not-german European cars. Sure there were a few Mercs and E28-E30 BMWs, but there were a whole hell of a lot more styled-by-LEGO Volvos and a fairly solid assortment of early Saabs. 4) Escorts, Focuses, Escorts, and Escorts. Seriously, I saw at least 20 of them sitting side by side. And now for the bitchin' cars that don't fit into any of these categories, or maybe they do but are just bitchin'. 240SX The entire car is pretty untouched. A few pieces missing here or there, and one crack in the center rear light thing that says 240SX, but otherwise really complete. Nissan Pulsar This is an N13 Pulsar, but not just any Pulsar. This is the high performance SE model that would've come with the CA16DE or CA18DE- peaky 1.6 or 1.8 liter engines depending on model years. Unfortunately, somebody took the amazing little engine and less amazing transmission out of the poor little Pulsar. Subaru Alcyone SVX and Porsche 928 Yes, the Subie has the 6 cylinder EG33 still in it. Practically untouched, too. It should be a direct swap to any first generation Legacy or Impreza, for anyone so inclined. I didn't look at the Porsche. 1969 Olds Toronado This is one of the first FWD American cars ever, for those not in the know. In typical American muscle fashion, however, Oldsmobile Toronados were equipped with the fearsome 455ci (7.5 liter) Oldsmoble Rocket V8 putting out 375 ponies and 425 twisties. Can anyone say torque steer? This Olds happened to still have the engine and transmission, but not much else. This car was pretty thoroughly picked apart. The rear trunk has some pretty bad rust and there's a lot of broken glass. The interior was absolutely demolished. It was also, very unfortunately, the vinyl top instead of the hard top Toronado. Vinyls became optional in '69. At least it's big enough to 69 in the '69. Mark IV Lincoln Continental This car is, without a doubt, the coolest car at the junkyard. Sitting proudly in the center, this magnificent, inert lump of imposing Detroit iron vigilantly overlooks the pick and pull area of the yard, waiting for an owner to take her home and get her running again. As you can see, this Continental is really clean. Somebody just took off the air cleaner to poke around in the carb but left it alone for one of the other 4 barrels on the lot, presumably the pickups near it. Inside it's the same story- virtually untouched. The other missing piece I see are the headlight covers. Shame, because it would look badass with them. Also, this Continental is a 70-72 judging by the front bumper. In 1973, the Federal Government introduced new crash regulations calling for energy absorbing bumpers. This means it also has the full emissions unrestricted use of its mammoth 460 cubic inch Ford 385 big block mated to that super smooth 3 speed automatic. I would've taken her home if I didn't already have the 55 Bel Air.

I used to go to U-Pull-It every weekend when I was younger. The prices are out of this world. I am not sure if there is a cheaper place to get good parts. They have 3 seconds American, Import, and Trucks/Vans. The normally have older cars like 80's to late 90's cars. However once in awhile they get 2000+ cars and if they do they are picked over quickly. Its also free to get in which is nice.
Cresent U-Pull-It 999 OLD BRISTOL PIKE MORRISVILLE PA 19036 215-295-6761 Pic-A-Part is located right next to Cresent U-Pull-It. You pretty much get back on the major road and get off at the next exit. They have a great selection of newer cars however prices were always more. However they are under new management now and the prices could have gone down. I stopped going there when they started charging to get in. Its only a $1.00 to get in but I can't see myself going there unless I really need too. Pic-A-Part 820 Bristol Pike Morrisville, PA 19067-2334 (215) 295-7610

About a month ago, I checked out EZ Pull and Save. My apologies, but I didn't have a camera on me. The entire lot is on the world's most uncomfortably placed hill. Want to get an engine? Drag it up a mile long incline to the check-out booth. Who the **** said "Now that's uncomfortable- let's make it here?"
American: Now, I haven't seen so many Crown Vics and related cars on the same platform except in car chases in a high-budget Hollywood flick. There are seperate Ford, GM, and Mopar sections each infinitely long literally as far as the eye can see. European imports: My friend's dad was looking for a clutch from a B5 Passat but everything they had was older than that. Not a whole lot of newer-than-2000 cars sitting there which is surprising considering how often the things break down and how expensive those things are to replace, even if done yourself. Asian imports: I'll be honest, the yard was so huge that I didn't get a chance to check it out. A friend of mine did, though, and saw a few second gen CRXes in mostly complete condition except for the glass that looked like it was repeatedly hit with a baseball bat (the mean streets of New Ringgold, desolate farming community?). Older: In the back is the "classic" car section. Now, that's kind of a misnomer because the entire lot is packed to the brink with Corvairs- not the most classic of classics- and malaise era or near-malaise era cars. There was the occasional 50s car, an Opel city car, and a first gen CRX. Basically, nothing that this forum is really into. Still, Corvairs are really damn awesome. There was even a Corvair topkick which is a mid engined, rear wheel drive pickup truck! Yes please!

Harry's and EZ Pull and Save are quite good. Plenty of pretty much everything at Harry's (except Miatas for some reason). EZ pull has lots and lots of Jeeps and other Chrysler trucks.

Just go to any junkyard 5-10 years from now and I'm sure they'll have plenty.
