driving through Mitchell today, I noticed that Haig Park have cleared & sold off their back lot...which means no more supply of L-series bits.
Anyone know of other local wreckers that have L series bits in them?[/code]

Excellent!
I've got a wish list as long as they come - but at the moment I'm really trying to scrounge up parts for a 2WD to 4WD conversion, as well as the auto to manual conversion (plus some other bits like mirrors, a bumper or two etc).
What I really need to find is someone that has a rolling shell they'll sell for $500 or so.....
Pm me if you have any bits!

I have a ready supply of L-series bits too, if you let me know what you need I can bring them over next time I come. Smaller stuff like speedo cables, springs, switches, CV joints etc are not a problem.

Ah crap!
Jono next time your at your 'storage facility' can you see if he has a L and whether he will sell the front left quater pannel, light, bonnet, and bumper? Or how much for the whole thing.
Cheers

I have a front bumper if you want it.
Too much to do now after your manual conversion? Drive
and change gears at the same time?

Check out the area around Cotter, you should be able to find what you need

Thomas, what are you up to ?
Starting to hoard suby bits ?
There is a white wagon body with 168,000 k, the 5 speed donor for the Brumby no less, with rear end damage so should be a guard, the bonnet has the slightest bend in tip closest to mirror. lights and indicators rare thing as too bumpers I think. I'll see.
The whole thing ? Your dad know you saying that ? Oh, yeah park it at the church !
I'll have a look and ask

This may be a bit late, but there was an L series wagon 'project car' for sale on EBay this week. Imported engine in bits, imported gearbox, body looked fairly straight. Located at Royalla, starting bid was set at $600 and no one bid on it. Bargain I thought!
I'm sure if anyone was interested, he'd still have it available.
Also, if you're after any L series bits, AAA Auto Parts, in Barrier Street Fyshwick have a couple of wagons at the moment. I picked up the middle exhaust section for my 91 wagon (almost new!) for $20 the other week. He also threw in a free hubcap cause I was missing one!
