How Do I Find an Automatic Transmission for a 1991 Caprice Classic?

Auto parts for a car, such as a 1991 Chevy Classic, are found at local dealerships, junkyards and online auto-part stores. Due to the complete renovation of this model, all auto parts for this car were created in 1991. There are only 217,462 known models of this vehicle, therefore, a transmission for this model, may be in a short supply. A 1991 Caprice Classic is either equipped with a 8 Cylinders E 5.0L TBI OHV or 8 Cylinders 7 5.7L TBI OHV engine; this must be located before you begin your search for the transmission.

Instructions

    1

    Call the Chevrolet dealership and ask if they have an available transmission for your car. When placing a call to the dealership, mention the year, make, and model of the car, as well as the engine type. If the transmission is available, set up payment and shipping options. If it is not available, ask the dealer if there are similar dealerships in the area that carry the part. If an adequate transmission is not located, ask the dealer to refer you to a junkyard.

    Visit your local auto junkyard. Junkyards carry used auto parts with a different range of prices, depending on the condition of the part. Call the junkyard and tell them you are searching for a transmission. Tell them the make, model, year, and engine type of the car. If they successfully locate the part, ask if you need to take the transmission out yourself, or if it is already dismantled. If they require you to take it apart, bring adequate tools or a mechanic. If the auto part is not available, locate another junkyard or widen your search to an online shop.
