    looking for parts in Los Angeles or Las Vegas

    Hi im New to this site, im hoping someone here can assist me

    I currently live in the Dominican Republic ( im from England)

    I own one of only a handful of 3000gt on the island as you can imagine owning this car here has its challenges !
    There are NO parts available for this car here, next month im visiting the states LOS ANGELES AND LAS VEGAS

    I have tried every way I can think of to track down a breakers yard with a 3000gt but haven’t found one
    I need lots of little parts plastic trim door seals ..just parts that are looking old or have cracked because of the heat

    Would you know anyone with a 3000gt who would be willing to let me pick parts off it ( and pay for them ) or a breakers yard that has one ?
    I don’t need engine parts just cosmetic bits ( but lots )

    Thanks

    Hmm try contacting the people who run the sites via email. Also, if you have a facebook there's a socal page and i believe a norcal page too.

    Both Cali forums are super slow. There is a SoCal FB but not for NorCal. Google PicknPull for car yards and parts.

    Mod list (scroll down the page)
    JNS Engineering has your Spyders covered (and uncovered too!!)

    i saw your PMs, but i thought it was a scam, you will not find many 3s in the salvage yards out here. they dont last long when they come in. and most of the parts your looking for are baked all to shit.
