Car part disposal

[EFFalcon]

Whats the best way to dispose of a motor.
pushing it off the back of a trailer going down the freeway would be entertaining but i'll pass.

I've got a complete motor and kframe i need to get rid of.
no idea what the best options are to get rid of them.

anything around the dandenong area?

Engine crane + overpass FTW. Do it when EANL have a cruise on

Nearest scrapmetal joint J Dub, get a little bit of $$$ for them.
That, or Joes house.

Joe's house + 1..

Nah you'd be up for about 12c a kilo at a scrap metal joint like the guys next door to pick a part.

when I got rid of a few motors, I took them to the scrap metal place at pik a part in Kilsyth, along with a few other metal car parts(flywheel, flex plate, rotors etc). Ended up getting enough money from them to cover the cost of trailer hire. Maybe Jolley Rogers would take it ?

Just pull the head off & you've got a fkn solid multiple stubby holder, perfect for the lounge

That is a sick idea, leave the starter rigged up and have a 12v battery, and you can launch them.

Liquid nitrogen in the sump = cool cans

Pull the head off, crank & rods out, clean up the block, buy a bit of 600x1200 glass and make a coffee table. Works better with a big block v8 but might still look effective? The rest gradually place in the rubbish bin and some midnight missions to top up the neighbours' ones too

[Bipolar]

Do that! 4L would make a decent height coffee table.

all you copy knts... thats my idea of the coffee table... mines going to have the pistons still... i want mine so you can see the pistons in action.. 1,5,3,6,2,4... oh yea!!! i luv 4L

My old housemate years ago scored a used speedway tyre, layed it on its side and got a bit of glass as a coffee table top. only thing is after a year of not moving it the rubber left a dirty round stain in the parquetry.. oops, big$$ to replace, goodbye bond!

[five point slow]

What's the k-frame out of?

4.0 head is worth about 10 bucks at scrap. Block isn't worth worrying about really.

[EdFairmontGhia]

chop it up into small bits then wrap them up in paper or plastic bags and chuck it in ya wheelie bin, piece by piece

[spope]

I sold an EB K-frame on ebay for $40 a while back. Guy said that he was gonna use it in a hotrod of some description - apparently the E-series front suspension can be adapted to fit some custom cars.

As for the engine, don't you have a NF shell to get rid of at some stage? Stick the engine in the boot of that, most people that pick up car shells will be more than happy to take it, they get paid by the kilo anyway.

[EFFalcon]

NL Shell is gone.

just wanna get rid of the damn motor.

[someLS1]

Wilson take it to sims metal man thats where ive taken autos and other random... come on man i thought you were a seasoned car pull aparterer vet???

[private9]

There's a guy on AFF looking for a head that he can use to dummy up a manifold on - he may take the whole thing if you give it to him for free.

[fordbaby]

hell no, i dont want no coffee table made out of that crap, helllllll noooooooo
just take it to the metal recyclers like you said you were going to

[EFFalcon]

yeah that'll be the plan.
problem solved.
