The swap meet is a dwindling part of automotive culture, and sadly so. People can buy, sell and trade bits with like-minded enthusiasts. Here's my idea: Create a sub-blog that allows Opponauts to sell, request to buy, and trade parts. Just a simple idea that may not work, but i'm just putting it out there to see how everyone likes it.

Will it help me procure a whale tail for my Saab C900? If so then yes.

Unfortunately, up in Canada there is a serious influx of rust that has rendered even the most hardy of trollhattan's tanks as piles of oxidized iron, but someone has to have one if this sub-blog goes up.

Thankfully, the spoiler is fiberglass and that shitty rubber shit that was on nearly everything from the eighties, so I don't think rust would be a problem. At this point I don't much care what condition it's in as long as the price is reasonable - I'll fix it

I'm an nth degree ninja in bumper and fiberglass repair, so I can fix it for you. You just have to paint it.

So only parts, and keep out the cars? Not a bad idea, per-say, but the reason it works so well on bimmerforum and thesamba is that most of the people have similar cars with similar parts. Dunno how well it'd work on Jalopnik, with our cars ranging from hardcore racers to Camrys.

like a jalop craigslist? excellent thought. the nationwide effect is good. i vote we include cars, but only PCH ones and bodyless beast carcasses.

The plan is actually to be worldwide. The stripped cars idea is great!
