invoices and slips for your car parts.

I keep most of them in a file.

I just found 1 from 2008 and it was so weird.
It was in an envelope that also had 1 of my salary slips from my first job
Where I wasn't earning very much.

Anyways I can't believe I spent half my months salary on car parts lol.

How did I manage to survive haha

Only invoices I didn't keep from the beginning was my service invoices.
Wish I did though

I know when I was searching for a used motor on Craigslist they swore their motor had 15k miles on their rebuilt motor but their pictures of it say otherwise :lol: I don't believe it unless there's proof

If the time ever comes to sell I know there wouldn't be no doubt

- Thu Aug 23, 2012 5:03 am #314080 i did for my 94 mazda 323 and for my EF when i had it. it was great when i had my either car written off, i showed the insurance adjuster the invoice for the tires and stereo and said i want full price for those if they are going with the car or i can take them and you don't have to pay for either ($1000 for tires and rims, and 3k for the stereo).

i've only bought 2 used tires and some LCA bushings for my Eg so far. and oil changes i track the mileage and date in my toolbox

- Thu Aug 23, 2012 12:04 pm #314092 I got a folder full of all the maintenance/services done to my car since it left the lot. the OG owner bought it in Tucson AZ and there are a few months of service records there, then moved straight to Beaverton OR. then back down here to AZ. She kept everything from tire replacement, tune up to parts replacement/services receipts. She spend soooo much money at the dealership... for frequent tune ups and checks. but thats all good with me..

:thumb: :thumb:

I keep the same records... except mine arent from honda dealerships lol I just have reciepts from buying parts/oil and replacing them myself.

2x my cousins friend made that mistake bought a ek with gsr swap and a whole bunch of goodies, drove home one day & got pulled over by CHP, turns out swap was stolen and so was everything on the car besides the shell :thumbdown:
And my friend bought a crx with b16 swap supposedly rebuilt , only lasted 2 months and a rod was knocking at his door :thumbdown:

wow the usa has such harsh laws about buying cars with swaps
what about if you buy a swap from like an auto wreckers how would that work down there

cause in B.C if you go to the wreckers and buy a like a b16 swap you just get a reciept saying you bought b16 say from sir no vin from the car
just swap it in and you have a motor

in that situation it was most likely an engine bought from a chop shop over a wreckers.
