Auto Parts

Actually finding a used part online for your car is very simple if you know where to look. From looking on Yahoo Answers site and the emails and questions I get, there are a lot of people that are having a hard time finding the parts they are looking for. I thought this was common knowledge but I was wrong. So this post is my attempt to make it common knowledge.

Car-Part.com is it. This site is the most usefull used auto parts locator on the internet. If you go to their site you will see that you can enter the criteria into the form, click Search and you have an extensive list of parts that you can filter through by price, location, description, etc.

The nice thing is that you can sort the search by location, where you will get a list of salvage yards and auto parts suppliers in your town that carry your part.

I have used this site for over 6 years and it is still the most powerful used auto parts locator tool.

Opened up my email this morning and got a not-so-pleasant surprise.

SATA wants my domain, because I infringed on their trademark. This domain - satagun.com, was a good domain, good traffic producer. Haven't made a cent from it but nevertheless, was fun to own a good domain. When I got it I didn't even think about the trademark issue. I guess I should have.

Oh well, next time I'll think twice before getting a domain that has a trademark in it.

So remember 2 things boys and girls, 1 - SATAgun.com is closed and 2 - Don't buy a domain that has a trademark in it.

I think I heard a story about someone getting their mcdonaldssomethingsomething domain taken away by mcdonalds, so be careful about picking your domain.

Here's my Toyota T100. Finally done. This is the photo of what it looked like when I just bought it.

And here is the photo of it now.

To see more photos of the build go to www.mirru.com. I was going to use it as my shop truck but when I closed the shop this truck became my toy.
