today i found a mini van at the recyclers its stuffed but i came home lighter in the wallet and heavier in the hilux. doors front and rear ok condition grill near perfect, wiring loom perfect not been butchered and a 11/1961 starter motor connected to an 850 engine which is complete but it does not have any numbers stamped on it, so the engine would be good for what a ground up resto on a 850 or not

Well done , the local scrap metal recyclers won't sell anything from cars because "we have an agreement with the wreckers , they sell us their old bodies and we don't sell anything from them " . Seen a couple of clubbies with usable interior been crushed and no amount of bribes would stop them :cry: :cry: :cry:
