    Default [SA] U pull it lonsdale closing for good

    Howdy, next sunday the 14th of March U pull it lonsdale will be closing, 70% of the car down there will be crushed... they are moving to 10 christies road i think it is, just down from all panels and parts,

    gonna be sad to see it go

    If you have anything Pre VS id say get ya arse down there now! I was there today and told that not much pre Vs is going to be kept at this new place as its not very big and they want more newer cars there...

    So yeh just thought id inform those who didn't know....

    I remember going there at around age 5 when it was pick a part, with my dad now its moving, and being leased to the De Sal plant
    Speed never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, now that's what gets you...

    Wrong section - this section is for cruise discussions.

    You were never at u pull it at age 5 mate! Pick a part was a total different business and located just up the road from upi. Different owners and both were actually running at the same time for a while. Either way this will make it harder to get parts for older vehicles at a reasonable price.

    LOL, nothing like taking it out of context.

    Yes it is in general talk regarding current cruises, meet ups, member details and cruise suggestions.

    That is why these posts get reported and deleted and why we have all been tagged slow south aussies because Mods have to come in here so often and delete non cruise threads because people in South Australia don't read the section criteria.
