Many people don't think about getting parts from auto wreckers anymore. I think the ease of getting used parts online has really decreased the awareness of these valuable resources. My father used to hang around them all the time so I practically grew up in the things and it is still my first place to check if I need something (not that I need much these days).
The name of the business is "Early's Auto Parts" which leads me to believe they deal strictly in parts, but hey you never know.

It's sitting out front right by the road in full view (highway 89 heading into Alliston), BUT it doesn't look like your "typical" wrecking yard with a huge lot out back. There's about 50 cars out front give or take, and it doesn't look like they even have a back yard at all, but hard to see from the road while passing by.

I'm going to Google them now to see if they have a website with more details.

*EDIT* I was mistaken; it is EARLY'S auto parts, not EASY'S, and looking at the pictures of the facility on their website, they do appear to have a back lot as well behind a wood fence. But they don't seem to have a way that you can search for a particular car on their website; just a particular part, and they don't seem to have an inventory list.

It also appears they do sell whole cars, but most of the whole cars for sale on their website are classics or barn find project cars. The FR-S isn't listed on that page as being for sale whole.
