Craigslist is good sometimes.

I've been pretty savvy with googling, what are you after? What kind of car? Would be happy to help...

racingjunk.com - used parts and cars
speedwaymotors.com has some race car parts and parts for some hot rods and muscle cars

So many other places to look depending on what you're after...

Nick how's it going cuz some of the same stuff i was working on before and mentioned.
all kinds of stuff.....want to add an electric fan....vintage AC even though im pretty sure im just gonna have to buy that regular price.I kinda am giving up on this dam factory AC. Got it working but it sucks....what did u pay for that again??? ummm what els....e seats....roll bar....tires...haha the list goes on and on.....But mostly right now just trying to get the thing to run cooler....Looking for a good strong electric fan and then back to straightening out the AC. Probably just gonna go with the vintage because its just to dam hot in there......when it comes to those fans i just dont know really which one to get push or pull? which brands are crap? how much power i should be looking for? and to make it a pull i need something less than 3 inches in thickness to fit between the clutch fan and radiator

I have a junkyard Dodge Caravan fan on my car connected to a Derail relay temp sensitive switch. Last time I was at the junk yard I saw a nice dual fan on newer Ford Windstar vans.

Great prices on aluminum radiators-
