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:

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
