sold for $3,300, plus fees that’s a chunk of change. SA buyer. Wait to see how long til it’s advertised for parts

Also the engine covers were on backwards :p
Nice score, ouch bit pricey to your precious buys, when are you putting up the parts for sale ??

I”m interested in the driveline goodies and @Somegirl90 oops it"s @someguy360 would definitely want the statesman interior.

How did you go with the recent sale of white ute ??

Wiley St which is opposite the Manheim auction building

It’s not visible from the main road.

Pretty sure the guys only advertise on Facebook marketplace so you wouldn’t know they are there otherwise
Those guys in Wiley St are alright they take cash or direct deposit.
Bought quite a few things from there for the VS and a couple of things for the VE.
Got a metal internal drivers door handle from them for $20 everywhere else wanted $45 - $60 and $30 for the plastic one.
There is a little wrecker in Burton that is quite good and once you get to know him he will let you go in and pull your own parts.
Got every bit required to turn a Omega center dash to a SV6 including the screen, screws and I mean every bit for $100 just had to pull it all out myself.

Where's the little wrecker in Burton? I know of the old Waterloo Cnr Road one (might have changed names once the old owner Adrian sold out) and Charger spares...Didn't know of any others...

I don't go down that way all that often I know there used to be heaps down there though years ago.

Back in the early to late 1970's you could actually go into Sims metals at Wingfield and pull parts of cars they were stacked everywhere.
48-215 - HG's even some HQ's were there before they cyclone fenced the entire place to keep people out.
We used to get heaps of parts for nothing more than the hard work to pull them apart.
