Rebuilding 2013 DB9

Hey guys,

I finally purchased a 2013 DB9. This one came from Copart with a few "scratches"
I am looking to acquire a driver side quarter and basically every panel in the front.
Does anyone from Canada know any wreckers or shops that has used parts? I know there are some in the USA, but I wanted to start looking in Canada first.

Any insight about part cross overs would be greatly appreciated as well. Are the radiator, a/c, oil cooler same as previous years? Rear suspension?

Let me know if this post should be elsewhere

Thank you,
Art

Nothing in Canada that I've been able to find over the past 10 years. Scuderia is good. I've used astonmartinbits and would use them again. Pacific Motors dot com has some major parts but I've never used them.

I'll put up some pictures shortly. Needs a new quarter and most of the front-end panels. Its a winter project for me.

Going to be a fun project. Will make sure car is mechanically healthy before proceeding with body restoration. Damage seems to have missed the frames, but will be measuring it to make sure.

That's a great color. Going to be sharp once it's done!

I'm also rebuilding a car from Copart, but I've been on a search for V8V parts. I've honestly had the best luck finding body panels on ebay, and I've come across a number of DB9 parts on there. What I would do is find a seller that has a decent amount of DB9 parts listed which means they likely have a car they're parting out. In my experience, they don't usually sell a rear quarter on ebay because the buyers are so few, so you'd probably have the best luck looking up the seller online and then calling them directly. I found a few parts that way, but honestly, about half of my parts came from the UK.

I think I saw this car on copart in California. Did you buy it from the US? How much did you pay for it? Finding 3rd gen body parts is going to be difficult.

I got it a couple of grand under Buy it now price, probably still too much. I have had no issues locating other parts, just the quarter at this time.

They wanted like USD$19k if I recall correctly. SCFFDAAM0DGA14990 right? I was considering buying it for the interior if I could get it for about $10k.

The DB9 market is interesting because it will always be capped by the VH DBS on the top end. Which means you can get a great car, better looking (in my opinion) and more powerful than a DBS for less money. Only thing is you need a manual trans to complete the package. There is a 2006 6spd volante (Lot # 60275420 ) for sale. Maybe thats your transmission?
