What parts are you looking for? Most yards don't keep complete cars very long, they'll strip off the common parts and inventory them. It's a lot easier to pull off the doors, fenders, seats, etc and store them separately than to keep the whole car.

There's not much out there. You'll have to drive a bit, at least for the yards listed in this system. Someone local might have better knowledge.

There used to be a place called "Doc n' Cys" in Indy, but I don't know if it is still in business.

I actually forgot about Westfield GW Pierce. IIRC they had a white late 924NA (5 spd) that was the victim of an engine fire as well as another fire victim early 944. They had both been picked over pretty well, but there should probably still be some body panels left.

Along that same vein, in Westfield directly across the highway from Pierce's, there used to be a very well equipped early NA in a smaller yard. It was zermatt, and had body damage on one of the sides. The interior was picked over as well... but the car still had 2 or 3 of its fuchs left IIRC. I ended up taking a headlight surround off of this one (no engine, BTW) and those a-holes way over-charged me for it. I can't remember the name of the yard (sorry) but you'd probably have better luck with Pierce anyway.

Thanks for reminding me, bcoupe
