    This is likely to be your easiest source for vehicles.

    Go here: craigslist

    Find your local area.

    Input various keywords, such as:

    Doesn't/won't run

    Doesn't/won't start

    Parting out

    Mechanical/electrical/transmission problems

    Overheating/overheated

    Blown head gasket/ head gasket(s)

    Needs work or Mechanics special

    Runs rough/bad

    Blown engine

    Transmission slipping

    Wrecked

    Crash

    Car accident



    Must sell

    Junk

    Scrap

    Recycle//recycled/recycling

    Rebuilder

    Salvage

    I'm sure I have more but that's all I can think of for now.
