I found this site while trying to avoid work ;)

It disturbed me a bit to see all those cruisers in a bad way, but then I saw all the great parts available, It was very interesting to note the high odometer readings on some of them, man those engines just keep on running. !!

I did have a bit of a chuckle at some of the notes....hard roll over .....mechanicaly A1......

Yeah I would love to reuse those axles again :p I suppose the engines would still be ok

Does anyone in Perth no if they are reputable ?

Ive got a secondhand steering box from a "rolled" BJ71, still going strong :) a few hundred dollars cheaper than other wreckers too

They must have liked your face:D. Every time I price them against the other main 4wd wreckers they come out last. Their parts are usually clean and in good condition though.

This is where they buy a lot of their stock

They got a twin turbo V8 diesel in a rolled 200 series for auction :cool:

Would that V8 fit into a 79 ?

I am guessing that it is too wide ?

I would love that engine in a 45-47 series......oh to dream...drool...drool :bounce: Classic looks with a modern twist.

probally too wide for that too ?

Yep ,too wide. Its been done to an 80 series but I have no pics or details
 
Ive asked them fellas about the whole elec window set up out of a shorty or so for my 79 and the fella was rude and didnt wana know about it

For that motor if you can fit big block v8's in cruisers im sure that ttv8 would fit maybe put the turbo exhaust routing outside they chassis like the turbo 80 series
 
Rude Service, must be great to be making so much money that you can be rude to everyone.........:hmm:
 
wow i must have got them on a good day :p
