If you can make friends with someone at the scrap yards, you can score some great stuff. My neighbor is the yard supervisor at one and through him I got a yerfdog and a Kawasaki Brute force ATV for free. I say free, but he is restoring a car and when it comes to the hard stuff, I am the point man.

I am parting out the yerf, but got the bruteforce going with $200 of ebay parts. I told him that I was looking for any ATVs to do some suspension swapping, but when he pulled into my yard with the kawai in the back of the truck, I just about in my pants. I saw the independent suspension and thought of what kind of buggie I could build with it, but that got nixed by the wife and kids. Now they use it to cruise around the property and I put a hitch on it and use it for chores instead

It is unbelievable what ends up in the scrap yards - good luck
