I live in the SF Bay Area and used to go to Parts Heaven for 914/911 used parts. Now that they are gone where is the best place to buy used parts? Where did all their inventory go?

We moved two 25’ Penske trucks full of Porsche parts from Huston to PA in May. Packing the parts, loading the parts, driving x-country, unloading and storing. Costly and time consuming. No way to make it work financially with 914 parts, even if they were free.
Plane flights
Truck rental
Forklift rental
Purchase 160 plastic bins
Purchase $2k lumber to make wood crates
Hotels in Huston and trip back
Food and transportation
Probably $15 + in expenses.
