If you are trying to repair an older car then you might experience a little difficulty in locating parts for the car. That is, if you are looking for OEM or factory original parts. While this can be done, it might take a bit more of your time then finding an after market counterpart.
However, if you can find your way through all that, it's likely that you will have a one of a kind car whose likeness will never be seen again. After all, who could possibly imagine a lowered chromed out 2000 Dodge Caravan with a cool racing strip and a growl of some serious horsepower coming from underneath the hood.
What that means is that you will either need to find parts that are interchangeable or you will need to modify existing performance parts to fit your needs on that particular vehicle. Either option is not for the novice. You will need to know what to look for are you wanted to mix and match car parts for an older vehicle. In order to modify parts, you will really need a good grasp on mechanics and in some cases, advanced engineering.
Of course, due to the frequent use of vehicles, car owners may notice some wear and tear. These small damages if not repaired or replaced immediately can affect other parts, which can be the cause of unexpected incidents. In addition, when it comes to car parts, car owners should also know where to purchase authentic parts to ensure that the car can provide them the performance and style they are looking for. So, if you cannot find the ideal parts for your car, exporting used car parts may be the best option.
The truth is, as long as the motor spares that are fitted are in good condition and suitable for the job (i.e. they are right car parts for the right car model), most garages and mechanics will not object if you want to provide the parts yourself. They still get their markup on the labour. Next time you are facing an MOT repair job, find out what the parts are and ask if you can source your own. Yes, it might slow the job down a bit (and if you need an urgent repair, you'll probably have to go with what the garage provides) but if you do have the time, go for it!
