i hate to say it but both times i went in for a quote they didnt really care and didnt show any intrest and seemed dodgie

they have sold alot of there god things in the tradding post over the last few weeks

and i dobt they will have things like brand new tail lights
front skirts and the like but yeah if you need general parts why not

do you pay when youleave or when you enter

i hope its when you leave! God knows if there are just bare body shells with crappy parts left. Knowing them, its probably dodgy. I absolutely cant stand the place, but its worth a look if you need bits, but only if its pay as you leave.
They tried to sell me a stuffed 2 litre short motor, "needs re-con" for $950! I laughed and walked out!
I ended up getting mine re-conditioned for $1100 with Duralite 60 thou pistons included. What a rip off!
As i say Boostin oz is best!

well i might go down with a mate or something check it out

try and find a couple pannel van pannels for $25 Very Happy

i have a feelign it will be dodge though they have heaps of doors and pannels there

yeah they quoted me $950 - 1000 for a rebuild but it sounded like they were gonna use parts that were newer not new

also went in once to ask about my brakes and what could it be and they didnt want to help at all so i went to boostinoz they helps and i bought a master cylinder

boostinoz are way more profesional and do a better job
ive heard a couple storys of just geminis reconed motors breaking after a month or 2 .

well i will bring $25 and if as i go in he goes $25 i'll be like errr well im off then

Is that the Panelvan? Wicked! Thats what i want. We get our new car on Sunday.. Not a gem, but its awesome nevertheless! Its a 1968 HK Monaro GTS 327, it just needs a bit of paint, some mouldings (we got them anyway) and a decent set of wheels. My LJ Torana project is looking further and further delayed..

I like my cars...

Its just a 4 door SL, BUT i am gonna try and make it look tip top. Im going for Barbados Green (sorta bright lime/citrus green mint colour) and im buying myself a set of satin finish centreline autodrags for it.. Merry Christmas to me! Its just got a 192 with triple su's an Aussie 4 and heavy duty clutch at the moment and looks pretty sad in its original metallic (very fade,chipped) blue, but she's straight with no rust, YEAH!
But I gotta say this Monaro came as a surprise, bye bye savings for a house deposit! But by hell she's worth it.. I'll have a look at your Torry pic's now..

Jeebers, I wish my girlfriend was like that. Oh well, I'm working on it, I bought her a MKII 2door Escort and taught her how to do up her carb. Goes alright. I was gonna stick my Hs4's on the torry but well...yeah. Leave yours on, they are still the best carbys hands down.

I love your Torry! She's sweet!
Im sure your Girlfriend will come around to being a car nut, just tell her that it's sexy and she'll suddenly be doing her own oil changes, services etc!

*Oh cheers GROOV i'll take unique as a compliment!
