Solar Car Challenge - Buy/Sell Forum

This forum allows the solar car community to buy, sell, or trade parts so that teams can help one another or upgrade and sell older parts to other teams. To submit items for sale or to request parts, send email to solarcarparts@gmail.com and it will be posted. Once the parts are bought/sold, please send a subsequent email for removal. Each request should describe the part, the requested price, and contact information.

We are building our first car and we are looking for anything on the front end. We especially need front wheels with brakes. Suspension and steering parts are welcome too. Considerably used stuff is fine because we have some good welders. We are in Texas, close to Austin.

We are a first-year, new solar car team looking to race in the 2023 Solar Car Challenge. Any parts FOR FREE would be appreciated as we are a small public school with minimal resources. We are located in California, near Sacramento. Thanks!
