my boyfriend totaled his green 1997 ford f-150 lariot edition..and it was in PERFECT condition before he wrecked...is there website (besides the rip-offs on e-bay) that you can get a windshield, right sided door, left sided back door and window, and fender for a cheap price? see he just recently had an emergency spent all of his money..and is only making about $170..he just graduated highschool...and he has other bills to pay..so can't really afford the best...so we need used cheap parts that are atleast in acceptable condition...does anyone know of any sites that offer very cheap vehicle parts? if so that would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
thankyou to everyone who answers!

Or try local salvage yards and local paper for someone parting out a similiar truck. Be careful of the quality of used parts--some are pristine condition and some are just junk----best to call around and get multiple locations of parts and see what price differences there are, then check the parts out and see what quality is of one versus another. Check on local glass companies for pricing on the windshield--lots of price differences there too but aim for quality and good installation....windshields on modern vehicles are an integral part of the structure of the vehicle and must be installed correctly...check if the company installation tech is ISO 9002 qualified. Company I used in Wisconsin was:

honestly i don't see him reparing his truck any time soon. he should pay who he crashed first if any and then look out for the rest. surprisingly there are a few repair shops that can help you since very few guys are friendly enough to actually help you. my stupid friend crashed my car once and insurance paid for it. still I paid no liability ($500) because the guy knew where to get cheap parts. hope this helps.

Look for a you-pull-it Junk yard.......You can get almost anything you want for a good price since you do the work...Check your yellow pages or local auto parts store for one near you..............Nuf Said
