SA Wrecking Yard Spotters Thread

Hey guys

Thought this would be a good idea to do.
Basically whenever you go to a wrecking yard and see a Corolla or Toyota that others could use parts from, let us know by posting it in this thread.

Would be good if we could get this stickied.

Ok so today went to Dry Creek Wreckers, Cormack road Wingfield

Was to many cars so I took pics, from what I remmeber there was:

couple KE70s
two KE30s (one 2door)
KE36 wagon
couple of Coronas (different models)
couple T-18s
ta22 celica
ra40 celica

Good thread. Did the other T18 have a diff?

[Tally]

cant recall exactly man only had a quick look, prob been taken

[MINIHORSE]

That "Super High Tension Disco Time" SportZ decal on that T-18 is positively excellent

[Tally]

I know aye I thought it looked cool, very 80s...

[-elliot-]

good thread
might go down there this week as i need a t18 parker light.

wish this was up earlier becasue i spent all last weekn looking for a t18 quarter, ended up buying a new one :)

[svenmate]

Was up at Elizabeth u-pull-it today. Really not many e7 stuff. Lots of ra6* and coronas though.

And as most of you know, lonsdale u pull it is moving and only opens in a few months.

[Tally]

Was at Just Wrecking Toyota yesterday. They have a MA61 supra with a full set of MA61 rims. Guy there isnt to expensive so go down and get urself a bargain!

nothing much else really noting, couple ke30s and couple ke70s thats it.....

think i may have seen a T-18 but not sure...

[Corona w/ Lemon]

Was the gearbox still in the Supra? Also, does anyone know if the plastic guards fit a Corona?

[Tally]

Not sure man, probably, hasn't been stripped much so yea...

[takai]

Guards wont fit a Corona, and i think that one is an auto

[Tally]

Just found out that he wants 500 for the rims, maybe not so much of a bargain after all :P

[Corona w/ Lemon]

Oh welll, thanks mate.

[FAST EDDIE]

Just found out that he wants 500 for the rims, maybe not so much of a bargain after all :P
lol i saw some there probly a year adn a bit ago and they wanted $70 a rim so they must of caught on!!!

[Eddy]

ke10 at lonsdale u-pull it

[Hazzard]

has the lonsdale u pull it reopened already? i thought it was meant to re-open in june...

[takai]

Saw that MA61 at Just Wrecking, definately auto, and two of the rims are pretty rooted. Hatch is rusty as all hell, bonnet is ok.

[twisted]

whats the chances of finding a 4age at upull it? blown or not

[slide86]

i have seen at least 2 at lonsdale

[squish_m8]

whats the chances of finding a 4age at upull it? blown or not

good luck... anything good down there goes super quick

[phoenix]

whats the chances of finding a 4age at upull it? blown or not

I got one from lonsdale so its possible you just have to be patient and keep checking

[sly1300]

does anyone have a pic of the price lists at the u-pull-it gates? i presume everything has gone up since the reopening at lonsdale.
isnt it now $2 to go in? rather than $1. lol

its a fucking marathon for me to drive to either of them (im in the hills) so a rough idea on what im gonna spend before i go will be helpful.
if a closer wrecking yard is only a few bucks dearer than u-gank-it ill shop there instead.

but not nearly as fun as trekking thru the rows of cars searching for gold. :)

Cheers.

[Tally]

Well just went up to u pull it Elizabeth on Saturday, yea $2 to get in in.

Absouloutly Jack all good stuff. Was a really rough t18, nothing good left really...

Was looking for a manual ke70 but failed as their was only an auto one and a wagon with no gearbox....

Heaps of coronas though, was one ke30 that was all 70s era wise.

Had to drop the whole drivetrain out of the ke30 lol was after the thrust bearing carrier as my ke70 one broke, was a risk but it was similar and still worked...

Also southern auto parts next to All Clutch and Brake have two t18s, no diffs or bars though....

[Andy San]

Lonsdale U-pull-it is now shit, went there on the weekend, there was about 2 ke70's there and nothing else particularly useful. Nothing is ordered by manufacturer any more so you have to search through the whole place (which is now 1/4 of the size).

[fergie]

wondering if there are any 1990 tritons any where tell me where thanks

[Arch]

[Hazzard]

[sly1300]

[Wishin86]

Yone see t white ke70 up the back of the lonsdale upullit? There was Lca's in the back that had been modified, I thought it was genius and forgot to take a photo :/. They had like chopped where the balljoint pokes through, drilled some holes, and then had bit that held onto the balljoint and bolted to the lca. It was a super clean ke70, pity they must of sideswiped something :/.

[Javal]

Kind of glad this thread has been bumped due to the absolute dearth of xE7x parts at wreckers these days.

If anyone spots any XT130 bits let me know.

[Tally]

pretty sure there was one or two at elizabeth upullit, one was a liftback

[Seventy]

Fuck, if i knew you were after xt130 bits i would of said something a few weeks ago when there was an almost complete one at lonsdale, Had a complete and mint black interior.
I left the struts, hubs and brakes in a white lancer thats in the first row on the right when you walk in, its the last car in the row.

[Wishin86]

I have Lca's and steering arms if need be? Lol. I pulled them off a mint blue one, like 2 months ago from Elizabeth u bangers.

[Javal]

Looking for a good condition bootlid and some bumpers if for some reason there are mint ones. Elizabeth U pull it has a sedan?

[Wishin86]

I went te Elizabeth one last weekend, and there is a few xt130's there, I think one even had a quad light set up? I think.

[Seventy]

any 1975 coronas floating around? after the quad headlights
Actually I think I remember an old corona at lonsdale with quadlights, few weeks ago

[McLEVIN]

ae71 at dry creek auto wreckers good right hand side panels headlights and tail lights. Right side is fooked

[Mark1990]

any 1975 coronas floating around? after the quad headlights

Hey man, theres an RT81 (1973 Corona) at UPI Lonsdale as said above. I have taken a couple of lights (I have the same model Corona so I've been slowly raping it). Last time I was there the brackets and headlight cups etc were there. Just the lights themselves were missing (Buy fresh ones from Supercheap, Repco etc). Second row of Toyots in, about 20m down haha

[Seventy]

Was down at lonsdale upullit yesterday and there was an auto AE71 with the engine mounts and crossmember still. And there is a XT130 and a RA40 both still with complete struts and brakes, but no LCAs or knuckles.

[slide86]

U pull it GILMAN has 2x AUTO AE71 sedans

http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/5/503386.jpg

http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/5/503387.jpg

The red one is still very complete and pretty clean, pity they are both auto.

There is also a white KE70 average condition, 2 x KE30

1 x RT132 manual complete, almost totally untouched.

[datablend]

i was just at Gillman U pull it. Both of those auto AE71 are still there and one more:

[Tally]

where is it?

[slide86]

Port Pirie

[muncher]

I drive past that place all the time on my way to my old mans.

Mostly Commos and Fords I'd say!

[slide86]

from the road i can see a FC RX7 and several other jap cars.

i sent him an email asking what toyotas he has......sent back at least 20 cars, including two ae93's with smallports. Others include:

ra40
ra60
ke30
ke55
ke70
a few taragos
a few coronas xt130 and st141

and more

[LukeKE11]

Is he actually interested in selling anything though or a hoarder?

[slide86]

hmmm well, i think he will sell stuff.......but from the encounters that i had, it was very difficult to get anything out of him.

i did go there with a big list and a heap of green backs, i think he was put off by the big list.

[AJPS]

haha! nice place port pirie (no sarcasm)

[Javal]

Spotted TWO ST141's with complete disc brake rear ends. Anyone out for a disc conversion for t-series better scoot on down to lonsdale u pull it.

[Jman_KE70]

didn't happen to see and slanty ke's down there did you?

[Javal]

Uh, there was one baby blue KE that I saw, I cannot remember if it was slanty or flat though.

Some dude was going to town on the front valance trying to get it off.

[Jman_KE70]

I just got back from there it was a flat front but the cars pretty much stripped out.

[Jman_KE70]

There was a fresh yellow slanty out at gillman upullit this week, I had a mate grab an indicator off it but most of the front was apparently smashed. Also the blue ke70 at lonsdale was an auto so i it should 4.3 diff gears.

[skizzamods]

Hmmm, I need that diff.

[Still Steppin]

gillman has 4 e7's currently

the yellow one, and three others that are fresher...one with black interior...

couple of rt142's there aswell
