02 What to send us

Three Things That Turn A Guess Into A Match

Any one of these speeds the search up. All three and we can usually identify a part on sight.

01

The VIN

Seventeen digits on anything built from 1981. Before that, the chassis, body or firewall plate. It resolves trim, engine and build plant — which is what decides fitment.

02

A casting or part number

Cast into the metal, stamped on a tag, or printed on a label. One number turns a guess into a match, and it is what we run through interchange data.

03

Photographs

Both faces of the part in daylight, plus any tag or stamping. For body and chrome, a shot of where it mounts. Send them by WhatsApp and we can usually identify on sight.

The problem we solve

Why A Part Goes Missing — And How It Comes Back

“No longer available” almost never means the part has ceased to exist. It means the person you asked had one place to look. There are three reasons a component drops off the map, and each has a route back.

  • The tooling was scrapped. When a model ends, the presses and moulds usually go with it. Nobody is making that quarter panel again — which is why the surviving stock, and reproduction tooling, matter.
  • The part number was superseded. A part is often still available, just under a number nobody looks up any more. Chasing supersessions backwards through the catalogues finds parts that look extinct.
  • The stock never left the shelf. Dealer and jobber inventory from the 1950s onwards is still sitting in back rooms across the country. Finding it is a matter of knowing who to ask.

03 Condition grades

Six Grades, Defined Plainly

The grade is stated on the quote, printed on the paperwork and packed in the crate. It is what determines price, warranty and whether the part suits the standard you are building to.

CodeGradeWhat it meansTypically bought for
NOSNew Old StockFactory-original, never fitted, still carrying its original part number and — where it survived — its original packaging.Concours cars and correct-date restorations
NORSNew Old Replacement StockPeriod-correct aftermarket stock, never fitted. Made during the vehicle's service life to replace the factory part.Restorations where genuine NOS no longer exists
REMANRemanufacturedStripped to bare metal, crack-tested, re-machined to factory tolerance, reassembled with all new wear parts and bench-tested.Engines, gearboxes, carburettors, starters, alternators
USED-AUsed — Grade AServiceable as removed. No cracks, no previous repair, no structural rust. Light patina consistent with age.Drivers and rolling restorations
USED-BUsed — Grade BServiceable core with honest cosmetic wear, minor damage or surface corrosion. Photographed before it ships.Rebuild candidates and exchange cores
REPROReproduction (ODM)Newly manufactured to original specification by our ODM partners — correct material, correct tolerance, correct finish.Anything NLA where no usable core is left

04 Packing & freight

Getting It To You In One Piece

A correct-date grille that arrives bent is not a part, it is a story. Fragile items are packed by people who have shipped them before.

Crated, Not Boxed

Bumpers, grilles, glass and body panels travel braced inside a purpose-built crate, not floating in a carton with a handful of packing chips.

Corrosion Control

Bare machined surfaces are oiled and wrapped before they go anywhere. A gearbox should not arrive with a bloom of rust on the input shaft.

Freight That Fits The Part

Small parts go parcel. Long blocks, axles and panels go freight, palletised and strapped, with a delivery appointment where the address needs one.

Paperwork In The Crate

Condition grade, part number, what it came off, and the warranty terms — in the crate and in your inbox on the day it ships.

05 The difference

What Happens When You Ask Somebody Else

The usual answer

  • Searches one warehouse and tells you it is unavailable
  • Sells on a part number alone, fitment is your problem
  • "Discontinued" ends the conversation
  • Chrome and glass shipped in a single carton
  • Warranty claims go to a ticket queue
  • No option once the last core is gone

The SCN parts desk

  • One request searched across 500+ sources at once
  • Fitment verified against VIN, casting number or photos first
  • Discontinued is where the work starts, not where it stops
  • Fragile parts crated by people who have shipped them before
  • Claims handled by the specialist who sourced the part
  • ODM manufacturing when nothing usable is left to find

Can't find the part? That's exactly what we do.
