About Pick Your Part - Chattanooga

Five dollars and a signed release get you into this LKQ Pick Your Part lot on Workman Road, and the gate opens every day, Sundays included. Carry your own hand tools, but leave grinders, torches, generators, jacks and anything gas-powered at home, since the cars already sit on stands. The yard hands out wheelbarrows and engine hoists at no charge. Kids under 16 stay outside, and it won't sell you a catalytic converter. An optional 90-day guarantee rides on parts unless you decline it.
