Default Where can i get salvage titled Camaro?

Hi guys!
I just made my RX7 go from 1.3L highly tuned to a stock LS1 with turbo... just WOW
Now the looks of my track only rx7 is not what i want to have. Figured out that i need to build a new track car and the 2010 Camaro suits me much better with LS3 engine OEM.
Does anyone know where i can get a salvage one? I cant afford one for 30k usd. I looked at copart.com and all its brokers but when i read reviews about them it doesnt look like a company you wanna deal with.
Im used to do sheet metal work and work with fiber glass so i dont car if its smashed. Taxxes here in NOrway is way to high to use it on road anyway.

Thanks in advance!

Sindre

There are a bunch of salvage yards thru out the states. Just do some google searching and your bound to find one that has one already. Good luck.

Thanks for the tip! Ill email cleveland pick a part. Is it usally safe to deal with the yunkyards? Its almost tempting to actually go to us to find a car and take it to the docks. Maybe that will please my Girlfriend to =)

Cleveland is one of the bigger high performance dismantlers, the parts I've ordered from them were top notch.

Not trying to hijack or anything, but I was looking through the pick a part site.

Why would this get salvaged? Unless I am missing something, the damage seems minimal. Maybe I missed something or those parts are just a pain to replace? I guess it was leased, that might have something to do with it.

I sent them an email. All those insurance auctions looks like scam and got alot of bad reviews. It might just be that people doesnt understand how the auction works, though..
I dont know about that corvette. It doesnt look like a pain in the *** to repair but it got a salvage title..

check www.ajrepairables.com they have a nice low mile C6 there for $19k with 15k miles. Doesn't look to be in real bad shape. Hate to see a Vette that's fixable go to a race only car but i'm not gonna buy it
