How To Decide When A 'Parts Car' Is Actually A Good Idea

A “parts car” is a spare car you have solely to harvest pieces from to keep another car alive. Sounds like a great thing to have, right? I thought so too, but in case you needed more convincing here’s the business case for a parts car. And a guide on how to find one.

Of course all this is dependent on your willingness to have the dead husk of a car on your property indefinitely, and the time to actually dismantle it. And the means to hawk the bits you don’t want.

Obviously you’re going to want your parts car to be as compatible as possible with your project, but even if you find a matching color scheme be extra careful to confirm that your new donor has the parts you want in decent condition. You are buying a dead car, after all.

These Are Suppose To Be The Best?

The United States of Burgers: The Best Burgers From Each of the 50 States

From onion-fried patties in Oklahoma, to slaw burgers in North Carolina, here are the classics you need to know around the country.

California - Pie 'n Burger

• Address and phone: 913 E California Blvd, Pasadena (626-795-1123)
• Website: pienburger.com

It’s the classic California burger counter of Beach Boys lyrics. The burger to get at this authentic throwback is the double cheeseburger. With its two thin, griddled patties, crisp lettuce, thousand island dressing tightly wrapped in wax paper, it personifies the ideal Californian burger experience. It’s nearly identical in structure to the Southern California cult favorite In-N-Out Double Double, but elevated.

Nevada - Fukuburger 

• Address and phone: 3429 S Jones Blvd, Las Vegas (702-262-6995)
• Website: fukuburger.com

After a few years as a food truck, the Japanese-inspired burger hot spot landed on the Strip. Skip the expensive celebrity chef burgers all over town and head here for the Fukuburger, bursting with crazy umami and wasabi mayo. Ask for some “crack” sauce too for your damn fries in. There’s also a FukuMoco on the menu if you’d like a taste of a real Hawaiian burger (see Hawaii entry).
