Vehicle Types and What You'll Find

At Murray Motors Inc., we aim to have a good variety of vehicles to pull parts from. While our exact inventory changes daily (it's a wrecking yard, after all!), you can generally expect to find parts from a mix of used and late-model vehicles. We're talking about all sorts of rides that come through our gates.

Here's a general idea of the types of vehicles you might find here, perfect for finding that specific part you need:

• Sedans (your everyday family cars)
• SUVs (for when you need more space and capability)
• Trucks (from light-duty pickups to workhorses)
• Minivans (for all your family hauling needs)

When it comes to popular makes, we often see vehicles from brands like Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota, Honda, Jeep, and GMC. These are the cars and trucks that most folks drive, so their parts are usually in high demand. We focus on getting newer or late-model vehicles, so you have a better chance of finding quality used parts that are still in great shape. Our goal is to provide reliable used vehicles (or parts from them!) to get you back on the road.

Popular Auto Parts You Can Find Here

When folks visit a salvage yard like ours, they're usually hunting for specific items that are expensive new or hard to find. We're stocked with a variety of durable used parts that are perfectly good for reuse. Think of it as a treasure hunt where the prize is an affordable fix for your ride!

Here are some of the most commonly sought-after car parts that fly off our shelves (or rather, out of our cars!):

Frequently Purchased Used Auto Parts

Part Category	Common Examples
Electrical & Engine	Alternators, Air flow meters, Air pumps, Amplifiers/radios, Antennas, Battery cables & terminals.
Driveline & Chassis	Axle shafts & assemblies, Axle beams, housings & flanges.
Body & Interior	Back door components (glass, handles, hinges, shells), Backup cameras, Various trim and moldings (e.g., B pillar trim, back door molding).

These are the kinds of parts that tend to be salvaged because they hold up well and can save you a bundle of money compared to buying new. What you generally won't find here are common “wear and tear” items like belts, light bulbs, brake pads, or filters, as those are almost always replaced new for safety and performance.

Auto Parts Pricing – Give Us a Call!

When it comes to pricing for our wide selection of new, used, factory-manufactured, and aftermarket automotive parts, we don't list specific prices online. Why? Because our inventory changes constantly, and prices can vary based on the specific part, its condition, and how rare it is.

The best way to get a quote on the part you need is to simply give us a call! You can reach us at (302) 628-0500. We're open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We accept major credit cards, including American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and debit cards, making it easy to pay for your parts.

Our Service Area

We're a local business, and we love serving our neighbors! People often come from nearby cities and towns to find great deals on used auto parts and get repairs done at Murray Motors Inc.

You'll find customers driving in from places like:

• Concord
• Laurel
• Bridgeville

Interchange System: Finding the Right Part

Ever wondered if a part from one car might fit another? That's where an interchange system comes in handy! At Murray Motors Inc., we run an auto parts distribution system that helps us (and you!) figure out which parts are compatible across different makes and models.

While we don't have a fancy online tool for you to browse (just yet!), our experienced team can often use industry databases or our own knowledge to cross-reference parts. This means if you're looking for, say, an engine or a transmission, and we don't have one from your exact year and model, we might be able to find one from a different car that'll work perfectly! This helps you save money and ensures you find the quality parts you need.

It's all about making sure you get the right component to get your vehicle back on the road as quickly as possible.

Warranty Information – What You Need to Know

When it comes to buying used parts from a salvage yard like Murray Motors Inc., explicit warranty details for those specific used components aren't typically published online. That's pretty common in the used auto parts world.

However, it's worth noting that if you buy certain new parts and have them installed at an affiliated GM dealership (which is a separate part of the “Murray Motors” family, not our salvage yard), those might come with a warranty. For example, some new parts could have a Limited Lifetime Warranty or a 12-month/unlimited-mile warranty. But that's usually for new parts and specific dealership installations.

For any warranty questions about the used parts you're getting from our wrecking yard here in Seaford, your best bet is to contact us directly at (302) 628-0500. We'll be happy to discuss any options or policies we have for our recycled auto parts. Remember, buying used can sometimes be a bit of a gamble, but we aim for transparency! You can learn more about used auto parts warranty on our site.

No Entry Fee Here!

Good news! Unlike some places that might charge you just to walk in, there's no entry fee to visit Murray Motors Inc. You can come on down during our business hours (Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM) to browse our inventory or inquire about parts without paying a cent to get through the gate. We're here to help you find what you need, not to charge you for the privilege of looking!

Tools and Equipment Needed to Pull Used Auto Parts

So, you're planning a trip to Murray Motors Inc. to pull some used auto parts yourself? That's the spirit! While we don't provide a specific list of tools, it’s a good rule of thumb that when you visit a salvage yard or u-pull-it yard, you should be prepared with your own gear. Think of it like a handy pit stop, but you're your own mechanic.

What to Bring: Your Essential Tool Kit

To make your parts-pulling mission a success, we highly recommend bringing the following:

• Basic Hand Tools: A good set of socket sets (both metric and SAE are smart), wrenches, screwdrivers (Phillips and flathead), and pliers. These are your bread and butter for most jobs.
• Power Tools: An impact wrench or a cordless drill can be a lifesaver for those stubborn or rusted bolts. Just make sure your battery is charged!
• Pry Bars and Hammers: For when parts are a little (or a lot) stuck. Sometimes, a gentle tap (or a not-so-gentle one) is all it takes.
• Cutting Tools: For tricky situations where unbolting isn't an option, a hacksaw, reciprocating saw, or even a small angle grinder (with safety in mind!) can be useful.
• Safety Gear: Gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges and grease, and safety glasses to keep your peepers safe from flying debris. Don't skip these – your eyes and hands will thank you!
• Lighting: A good flashlight or headlamp is crucial, especially when you're digging deep inside a vehicle.
• Lubricants: A can of WD-40 or penetrating oil. Rust never sleeps, but it can be defeated!
• Bonus Items: If you're going for undercarriage stuff like an axle or transmission, a jack and stands (if allowed and safe) or a creeper might be handy. Always prioritize safety first! Find more what to bring to a junkyard tips here.
