    Default where can i get my hands on a crashed car for parts?

    hey,

    i've been searching around the net and i cant seem to find what im after. i would like to get a crashed car for parts etc, but i am having trouble locating them. is there like an auction a few times a year where they sell them? or is it a case of being at the right place at the right time?

    if this doesn't really make sense, its because im still a bit intoxicated from last night

    Try Manheim Fowles in Altona. They have a smashed auction every wednesday - I think you can bid online.

    What about the Trading post or local newspapers? Failing that ring around your local wrecking yards.

    ebay prices are becoming a joke. premium prices for a part that is generic but sell it as a GTS part or a Monaro part and charge twice as much.

    All I want is a Monaro Bonnet with the flutes, the VZ SS guards with the vents in them thats all.

    yeah ebay is really getting over inflated, especially when you're looking at something from across the country...

    Pickles Auction every Thursday as well. Damaged vehicles sit in the Tullamarine yard on Garden Drive. Same with Fowles you can bid online or in person.
