DONT MISS OUT!!!!

WHOLY SHIT! so gay that I have bills to pay this week!

i will definately be there with a wheel barrow fvck yeh.
they normally charge a fair bit for stuff.

cheers corey

they are usually on par or worse that any Canberra wrecker!

Sounds like a good deal!

ohhhhh mother of god ..... its going to be mayhem!

Can't imagine there would be much left....

yeah, as they said, the good stuff will be stripped.
but you might score a good motor or something

Has anyone tried moving a motor on a wheelbarrow? Could easy get all the stuff for a BA conversion in a day for $120.

Someone should do it. Not me tho.

whats all the aprts needed for a ba conversion?

cheers corey

Wonder if I can get a barra on a wheel barrow?

go there and take every single bolt you can find.

lol john
wouldnt mind some fg parts from either xr8 or gt thats if there is any

i'd say things like chrome ghia door handles, XR lights, MOMO steering wheels etc. will be packed away for the day

they were asking $750 for a set of FTR's the other day, i wonder if they'll still be there to pile into a wheelbarrow?

It's gonna be pick a part spec, all GLI spec stuff that no one ever buys!

passout stamps? :p

wouldn't mind a BA auto shifter conversion for my EF but there is going to be a line up of people at every car, its going to be madness.

has anyone actually been into their yard? i went for a wander around there with the big, fat, sweaty ugly guy there, and all the cars are fucked. like they said, the only thing thats good there is panels. anything after an AU there would have its engine taken out nd put in the showroom. if anyone gets anything better than an XR6 rocker cover, ill be amazed

Does that mean theres no chance of a BA motor??? thought it sounded to good to be true if thats the case...
What would be the heavy stuff people need help lifting? diff or something?

lol 'parts of a BA engine...ie bolts'

who knows

but for the record, i moved my complete EB engine on a fridge trolly made in the 80s.
also moved the 2jz with it lol
a wheel barrow would be luxury to move an engine.

I forecast dero XT/GLi spec parts only, with a large chance of punch ons over dibs on motors and other parts.

I don't think anyone will have much luck holding an engine filled wheel barrow upright

not with that attitude mate!
what do you guys think people fill wheel barrows with? lol
forgetting all the concretors and landscapers that fill wheelbarrows like they're meant to be?
even the lil carts at pick a part are basically a wheel barrow

I'm guessing it will be stuff damaged from the recent storms. Damages panels or water logged motors, etc.
Also they would pull off all the good shit first, so you will have a choice of the left overs.
$100 all you can fit into a wheel barrow? Be sure you fill the fokker!

Yeah cant see this really having alot of good stuff available .
Because this guy usually charges mint load for products.

indeed expensive as fk.
cheapest thing i bought off them was an injected 202 (with no accessories ) for $375 around 7 years ago.

i have with the guy whos usually on the counter, most of the shit in the yard is fucked, thats why its in the yard. but there i think there will still be some decent things in there that they have missed.

All the good stuff gets stockpiled in those massive shelves inside the workshop or it sits in the counter/office area. It'll be hail and water damaged crap. Somebody might get a couple of bargains... but I don't trust it... probably buy more for $50 at pick-a-part.

there will be fuk all left! as said all the half decent stuff is instore and in the big shed. they have said the panels are dented. im guessing will be all ba xt shit and the stuff they cant flog off.i doubt there will be any fpv , xr's ect there.

i agree with all of you but you gotta have some optimism about it lol

Size of wheelbarrow has not been stipulated

could use some new brakes, some trim pieces few little things.

Oh, the hell yeah. It's the SE suburbs, you people punch on if the wind changes, imagine the brawls that are going to take place! I wouldn't go down there if they gave me $50 to take their shit. Good luck with that.

FTG aren't stupid.

Would be surprised to see more than 10 items of any decent value come out of that epic list of hail damaged damaged cars.

I think this is a publicity stunt. When Pick-a-Part used to do this back in the day, TV crews would attend.

Id say even the badges wont be on the cars. Good luck to anyone who gets a good bargain.
