Found the Holy Grail!!!!!

[ThinktwiceZ71]

i found a guy 45 minutes from my house today that litterally has 500-2000 3 wheelers , parts are everywhere like a bomb went off. You name it he has it , now they aren't whole machines , just machines that i could buy and get some more stuff to make em whole. The place is a dump , and i am prolly going to go there again tonight or tommorow because they wheren't there earlier today , and i didn't want to walk around or trespass.

I am going to be looking for a 350x frame that has an engine in it , with a swingarm and axle . Anything else will be sweet.

How much do you think it would cost me to buy the frame with engine in it and a swingarm from this dumpyard place ?

it's not a buisness , he does it out of his house and works a day job.

he has 2 huge fields filled with stuff

i am also gonna see if i can find some OEM fenders and the rear garnish thing !!!

Bring your camrea. most places I've see, like that think those parts are worth more than gold. hence... that's why they been sittin there so long.

good luck....

Hard to say. Sometimes people think their junk is made of gold, other times they are more realistic. Too bad all those parts have been sitting outside for who knows how many years...

It is sad to see people with no intentions of ever using their bikes/parts leaving them to rust and rot just because they can't get a mint for them. If your not going to use something, why ruin it. Sell it for a fair price to someone that will bring it back to life.

The prices that some people think this stuff is worth is ridiculous. Honestly, in some areas your lucky to find a handfull of trike enthusiasts. Your not gonna be able to demand the prices people demand for dirt bikes and quads.

man all those trikes just sitting in some field rotting away

[ThinktwiceZ71]

yeah and there are a ton ton ton of old snowmobile's too , 70's 80's .

i need some stuff for a 250sx.
rear fenders, seat, front light plastics, and a good rear shock.

[Dirtcrasher]

Thats the worst thing, when they leave them outside most of it is junk....

You won't find much good plastic.

But, the metal can be blasted and PC'd or plated so I'm sure there is plenty of good restorable stuff there :

well i called him and talked to him , he said saturday is a good day to go out. Said he isn't looking to get rich , but i asked him if he had any 350x stuff and he said he has 1 or 2 frames with forks , doesn't know if the swingarms are there or not , prolly looking to get a few hundred dollars. Now that seems kinda expensive , i mean he said he knows he doesn't have any engines. What do ya think ?

[ThinktwiceZ71]

he also said he keeps track of ebay and stuff so he knows what stuff usually goes for

LOL That might hurt you.

You might be better off buying a CLEAN frame off ebay.

[factoryX]

lol one of those guys. stay clear, they are a pain in the arse. $5 part and they want $50 for it...

[rdlsz24]

A few hundred for a roller that's been sitting in a field? lol

I don't know if a bunch of busted up and rusted up trikes in a field is the holy grail. I might consider it a decent find, but most of the time, it's just a bunch of busted up junk. Best of luck and I hope you get your 350x parts, but I wouldn't get too worked up over it. Sometimes a bargain is no bargain at all.
