Overview

Skyway Auto Parts Inc - Buffalo, NY

Skyway Auto Parts Inc is a self-service auto salvage yard on 25 acres at 637 Tifft Street in Buffalo. The yard stocks used auto parts like rims, glass, and salvage vehicles. Customers can browse the lot themselves or get help from the parts counter. While Skyway doesn’t buy junk cars, they can point you to local cash-for-cars options.

What to Expect

Skyway Auto Parts is a self-service yard—you can walk the lot during business hours without an appointment. Bring your own tools if you plan to remove parts. Staff at the parts counter can help track down specific components if needed.

Available Parts

The yard carries a rotating selection of used auto parts, including:

  • Engines and transmissions
  • Body panels and bumpers
  • Car rims and wheels
  • Glass (windows, windshields)
  • Interior parts (seats, dashboards)
  • Electrical components (batteries, alternators, starters)
  • Suspension and brake parts
Inventory changes often, so call ahead or visit to check for what you need.

How Self-Service Works

The process is simple:

  1. Arrive during open hours and check in at the entrance or parts counter.
  2. Browse the lot by vehicle type and part category.
  3. If you find what you need, remove it yourself (tools required) or ask staff for help.
  4. Pay at the parts counter—prices vary, and some parts may be negotiable.
  5. Take the part with you. Larger items may need towing or a trailer.
The yard doesn’t offer towing or pickup for parts, so plan ahead for transport.

I drove all the way there on a Saturday to sell my car, only to be told they were closed and I’d have to come back Monday. So I did—only to find my car *gone*. Vanished from the front lot. When I asked the supervisor where it was, he basically laughed in my face and said they’d already sent it to be scrapped. *Scrapped.* I still had the title, the keys, and—worst of all—my grandpa’s watch, the one he left me, was still inside. I called back the next day, furious, demanding to know how they could just take my car without warning. The same guy had the nerve to say he wouldn’t even send someone to check if my stuff was still there. Just flat-out refused. Then he hung up on me. I finally got through to someone named Ralph, who was supposed to be the *real* manager, but he was just as useless—couldn’t explain why they’d scrapped my car before I’d even sold it to them. No apology, no help, just a bunch of people playing games. This isn’t how a business should run. I’m talking to a lawyer now. ---

If you’re looking for parts in Buffalo, this is the spot. Prices are fair, the people know what they’re doing, and they don’t waste your time. I’ve sent a few friends here, and they’ve all come back happy. No fuss, no overcharging—just good service. ---

Been coming here since I was a kid, and they’re still around—good sign. Stopped by the other day, and they didn’t make me wait at all. Even took the plates off my car for me, which was a nice little extra. Not a lot of places do that. Would absolutely send anyone I know here if they needed parts or wanted to get rid of a car. ---

Skyway gave me the best deal on parts I’ve seen anywhere. The guys there are straight-up good people—friendly, honest, no nonsense. If you’re in the market for auto parts, skip the rest and go here. You won’t regret it.

Had to junk my car and didn’t know where to start, so I called Skyway after our mechanic recommended them. One quick call, and they gave me a solid cash offer. Next day, the tow truck showed up, took the car, and I had the money in hand. The tow guys were actually really nice and professional, which was a surprise—usually, that part’s a hassle. Skyway made the whole thing smooth, and they kept me updated without dragging it out. If you need to get rid of a car fast, these are the people to call. ---
