iļø About Bears Part Scout
Welcome to Bears Part Scout - your automated scout for finding undervalued rare auto parts across Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, eBay, and local junkyards.
š Our Story
Thank you for joining Bears Part Scout. This website was built by a frustrated car guy who got tired of searching countless websites for the right parts, going back and forth, or forgetting where to look. The worst feeling? Finding exactly what you needed - but missing the deal because you were just a little too late.
So this - Bears Part Scout - was born from those frustrations!
From one enthusiast to my fellow car guys and gals, whether you're a pro, a novice, just learning, or just looking for something you need... I sincerely hope this helps you!
I encourage suggestions - reach out and let me know how I can improve this site or add a feature you need to make your life just a little bit easier.
Thank you and welcome to the family! š
