Bourkey Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I saw this on another site a couple of months ago and it worked really well as cars all over the country were being posted up. In the section people post up where a car is being broken up so people know where they can go for second hand parts. This is because i have found the Starlet is a hard car to find in scrappies but if you where in one and spotted any kind of Starlet you could pot the info in here and maybe a picture.For example.Car: UK N/A Starlet SportifColour: GreenLocation: Autosave Scrapyard, Pimhole Lane, Bury, ManchesterDescription: Rear end damage with quite a few parts left still.AndCar: UK N/A Starlet SportifColour: RedLocation: Autosave Scrapyard, Pimhole Lane, Bury, ManchesterDescription: Front end damage with Pretty much everything there still.(These are real ones by the way)What do you all think?

SiCaln Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 thats a really good idea man, could help a lot of people Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 usually what I do, when I find a useful car in my local scrapyard I post it up and buy the items for any interested people - there was a Paseo in my scrapyard which I've pilfered from that all that's left is a shell of it's former self I also sold someone a Silvertop 4age...it gives me something to do. We had an EP82 in my scrapyard at one point...should've taken the steering rack Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Good idea....saves people who are looking for small second hand items searching through all the parts for sale section etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 This is a good idea, are you able to get parts of these cars. I could be interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

riko666 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 post Well I shall let you know in a couple of weeks, I need a Manual Steering rack from a Starlet. For the breakers section, what we could do is have "areas"...I'll inspect the Oxford area and anyone in the vicinity can collect from me, or post Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 Well Riko im after a passenger side front panel for a green EP91 sportif. But i dunno how to get it to me if you find 1.Do you mean the front wing?If yes then the one i mentioned at first has one in mint condition last time i saw. Same colour as your Sportif Im going again this weekend as my girlfriend has had a bump and im getting parts for her corsa, So i could get a price and pick it up for you.See this idea is working already. Any chance of getting this going properly then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bourkey Posted September 25, 2007 Author Share Posted September 25, 2007 Hi again,Sorry for the slow update as im still offline at home. @Liam DThe wing you wanted was scratched when they moved the car last week. I found another green Starlet the same colour and it was in mint condition. The only body part that was missing was ..... The wing you wanted. But i'll keep my eyes peeled for you.@Stup86The Fog light switch will be no more than £4. I can get this for you if you want.hey bro this would be hard to impliment, well not hard but im not really for it- opening up another sectionthe reason being that the site is growing at a rappid rate and most people dont use the whole forum, the buisness directory is proof of that, so im negative against opening up any new forums as such as it adds more clutterim not knocking your idea by the waycould you post up a link to where you saw this idea for me to have a deek?Sorry Geo i can't remember where i saw it.
