A family-owned auto parts business built on honest pricing, real expertise, and a genuine commitment to our customers — from Bradenton, FL to all 50 states.
Junkyard Gold was founded in May 2026 by Suzanne Sickmiller on a simple principle: that dependable, high-quality auto parts shouldn't cost a fortune. Bringing rich, hands-on experience from working across different auto salvage yards, Suzanne established Junkyard Gold in Bradenton, Florida to connect drivers, mechanics, and shops with thoroughly inspected used engines and transmissions.
With deep roots in the salvage industry, our mission is built on rigorous testing standards, transparent condition reporting, and honest pricing. Every engine and transmission in our network undergoes thorough multi-point checks before shipment, backed by our 90-day warranty and dedicated customer service.
We're not a faceless warehouse. We're a dedicated team of automotive professionals who genuinely care about getting you the right part, at a fair price, with as little hassle as possible.
Everything we do comes back to these principles. They're not just words on a wall — they shape every part we sell and every conversation we have.
Real car people with decades of combined experience in the auto salvage and parts industry.
Built on rich salvage yard experience and a passion for dependable parts — here's how Junkyard Gold came to life and continues to grow.
