The exhaust would be handy. . . I reckon. .

I'm suprised that the insurer let him keep it if they paid it out, normally it goes to auction house to recover their deductibles

I think this guy has bought it from the auction. He probably got it for $1000 and now wants to make some $'s on fleabay.

Is anything ever cheap on greedebay anymore?

People seem to think their s##t is worth more secondhand than when it was new. :ninja:

Just put "rare" or "only one left in the known universe" and voila! One milion dollars...

I didnt get to see the add on eBay, but if it was black and has old looking Works wheels on it was sold threw Pickles Sydney, Just Cars total lossed the car as there had over $16000 worth of damage on it, someone paid over $7000 for it at pickles.

It's a shame the guy took it off Ebay, I don't think anyone of us here would have brought it to fix but for parts alone it could have made him some money.

I wonder what will become of it now, if anyone does hear anything make sure you post an update in this thread.

i rekon it will get parted up. or someones offered him 10k for it thinking its a 'good buy'

We should have got in touch with him and threw him a life line :D

We could have easily parted it up, wouldn't have been much left after we all finished!

Or he has just realised he cant sell a car that has been written off, with the pretence that it can be re-registered, maybe someone informed him of that fact . . . .

If he happens to be on this forum and it is highly likely, PM me with an asking price for that exhaust. .

There is one being auctioned by Pickeles tomorrow in Milperra if anyone is in that area.

http://www.pickles.com.au/damaged/vehicle/...lotid-202107380

Silver one, recovered stolen vehicle, some dents and the likes but still good for parts.

I didnt see this one go thru auction, you sure it was pickles??

Yes was threw pickles Sydney.

The one going threw pickles tomorrow is another Just Cars vehicle stolen recovered theft, owner was paid out last year and now Just Cars found the car, so will be sold threw Pickles should have no WOVA on the car so its not a total loss.

hmm leather and tv in that one at pickles!! looks like an RX, but its got the single DIN radio..........

and you CAN register a car thats been written off, but not if its a statuatory write off. that looks like a repair write off.

Ok let me ask a stupid question: if I pulled the leather heated seats out of a wreck could I fit them reasonably easily to my cloth int one? I'm assuming (maybe wrongly) that there's not a heap of wiring required for the power and heaters?

Mind you this one at Pickles will probably go for $7000+ if that's what the other one got. Although why do they say it's got no Comp plate?

if its got no compliance plate then it probably couldnt be complied for some reason. was it a 2004 model??

i could imagine there isnt much difference in the leather. ohh they are electric adjustable seats too, so there is wiring for that. whats the bet its all there anyway :sick:

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
