Anyone wrecking? I need a front left chassis rail or body sh

Post by berntd »

Hello

If anyone is disposing of a 107,

I need about half of the front left chassis rail.

Preferably with inner guard attached.

If in Sydney area, I can come and remove what I need.

Best regards
Bernt

In hindsight, a wrecked stripped out bodyshell will do as well.
Transporting it is harder but maybe can be done.
If it rolls, then even better. I can bring wheels even.

For a shell. SL would be better but hey, beggers can't be chosers.

Sydney Australia. Hmm... I'd definitely try ozbenz if you haven't already.

I've got stuff, but shipping from the US would be nuts I assume.

Yes we are Ozbenz aren't we..... or is it the popular front of Judea..... splitters!

Did you try Euro auto or ASV or whatever they are called? Sometimes they have cars like that or might be able to cut a section.

Thanks. I never heard of that place.

Commercial yards seem to be way out of my budget for this.

They are commercial, might be expensive, but have got half reasonably priced stuff before. Keeping my ears open if anything comes up though.
