i did a bad thing today

Post by schultzie » Mon Jun 02, 2008 4:40 pm

leaving work and i seen a L-series sedan on a tralior heading towards sims metal and i noticed spats... i followed the bloke and it was a genuine rx turbo in Awesom nick apart from the Drivers side seat and a tiny bit of rust in the rear window, awd all the goods and because i couldnt justify spending 300 and getting him to tow it to my place ( im a bit tight on money and need a heater at home) i let let a Genuine RX turbo get crushed.... i actually shed a tear... those parts to it could of gone a long way.... and i would of used the motor if not kept the car


Im sorry all


just had to say something

If i could have known i would have given you the $300 to grab it, $300 is cheap for an AWD geabox and RX interior.

U shoulda bought it, then sold the parts and made a profit. Then you coulda bought a bigger heater.

Hah. My L series (DL) was sent to Sims on a trailer today (3 car pileup and with only 3rd party insurance it was rooted...)

I already miss it... can't wait to buy another L wagon

We all have our regrets Schultzie, but ultimately the guy who had it crushed is the retard who didn't know what he had or how much it was worthl.

Don't beat yourself up about it, you didn't tow it to the crushers.
