Efficient methods of parting out a vehicle

From : ivan

Q: ive decided to part out my 89 d50 ram rather than repair the engine. im wondering if there is a way to do a reverse look up for auto parts. i want to know which models/years or what other vehicles a particular part will fit. .

ive decided to part out my 89 d50 ram rather than repair the engine. im wondering if there is a way to do a reverse look up for auto parts. i want to know which models/years or what other vehicles a particular part will fit. i dont see many d50s on the street anymore. id suggest you advertise nationally to reach the most people...ebay comes to mind. the sum total of its parts are worth many many times more than what you can get for the entire vehicle. good luck .

so now what do you clowns continue your attacks do you continue your hatred and bigotries i saw no hatred or bigitory in tb post or tgs post. how you arrived at that is beyond me. at best your post was inflamatory. admittedly with tb the intention was to encourage him to go bother someone else or just go away. i do not have any desire to converse with him on any earthly matter. you asked him three questions in your post! how can you say you didnt want to converse with him when by clear language you encourage a conversation you didnt just open the door you kicked it open imo. read 3 paras up. im trimming this again. otoh and i really dont see why you dont see it tg stated publicly that his use of my name was as an expletive a profanity a curse word to him. that is an insult. i didnt see that in this thread. how far back in history are you going ya gotta treat each thread as new if possible. clinging to the past around here isnt healthy. after all it isnt real. g you have a birthday this month my eldest was born on the 30th of this month. at the beginning. roy .

i detect sarcasm in your post. but thats okay ive already considered all the drawbacks you seem to be subliminally implying.....unless im reading you wrong. i am still motivated to see this truck recycled as much as possible. so here is the first installment of my experience to recycle my truck. captains log; stardate 0072523/04/06ad i ran an ad for the truck in my local paper on saturday. the ad was hidden under an obscure heading because i had other stuff for sale as well. the first day i received seven calls about the truck. demographics for the callers are mostly *young man needing a restore project for an auto repair course *mechanically inclined current owners of d50/mitsubishi trucks looking for a part truck *mechanical entrepreneurs who buyrepairresell. what contributed to the strong interest my d50 it could be the reputation of the 2.6l...simple and easy to work on good gas consumption gas prices are crazy stoopid in canada. it could be the clean sporty appearance. it could be the tuffiness of the body. my motivation is to see a perfectly good truck in the hands of persons with skills to use the parts or the whole truck. im turning this into a project but i dont want to waste too much time dispensing of the truck. im looking for the smartest most time efficient system of doing this thing. there are to many newer parts and the frame/ body is in to good of shape to give it to the wreckers...best offer from a wrecker was $75. sure throwing this truck away would be the cheapest and easiest thing to do or with a little effort it could put a smile on the face of someone who is deserving and able to keep it running. as far as wasting my time with people with no money or off topic calls as you suggested...hey youd be surprised what you can learn and the interesting people you meet. some people call it networking. i call it extending yourself. if the person has no money and i think he deserves a break theyll get the part for free. when are you bombing the aircraft carrier might be interesting to watch eh. btw where the heck is pensacola is that in the usa or sumpin...yall ivan wrote ive decided to part out my 89 d50 ram rather than repair the engine. im wondering if there is a way to do a reverse look up for auto parts. i want to know which models/years or what other vehicles a particular part will fit. ========= ========= you know ive got this old tv set ive been thinking of doing the same thing with........ so.... if you dont mind....... let me know how this works out for you. you know... keep a log of all the time and effort for me then do a repost when all the parts are gone or untill you gits frustrated......... sos i can make an intelligent decision on whether or not i want to do it with my tv set. cuz....... lifes reeeeelly kinda short you know and if i can just junk it out for a couple of bucks to buy some fishn bait with..... then im liable to save myself all that time and aggrevation and jest take the money and fill up the ole boat motor and have myself one extry fishn day before i die. but....... if it all works out well for you.... i may be a tight enough ass to spend all the effort to let someone come and yank it apart for $5 a tube...... you know cuz....i aint gonna do it that would take away from my fishn time. and besides...ill be a bit busy answern all the bullshit phone calls from folks with no money weeding through the perspective sales and answern their funny off-topic questions........to go yankn the parts off for them. so.....please..... if this thing works out good for you....... oh......fk..it........... who am i tryn to fool............ i still wouldnt waste my time with it.......... but.....i do hope it works out well for you. marshmonster suggests you sale the truck as is.....use the money to come on down to pensacola and watch us blow the hell out of a aircraft carrier and sink it .
