    Default Old Holden Wreckers - QLD

    Hi Guys,

    I'm up in the sunshine state tomorrow and Wednesday for work, thought I would take the opportunity to see some local wreckers for my 1 tonner project. Does anyone know of any good wreckers the south of Brizzy? Or even along the north coast of NSW? That specialise in old holden parts.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers

    Thanks Mango, may be to far north for me, we'll see how we go with work if I have time we'll travel up. Looked at their website, looks like thats where holdens go to die lol.

    if u ring them they have a system they can check other wreckers all over aust, they may be abble to tell you where to get what u want.

    they can also put it on a carrier for you theres couriers going from there all day

    Hi George, dont know if you know about these guys but they specialize in reproduction and new parts for cars being restored.

    They have pretty much everything thats hard to get including rust repair panels.

    I'll second that, I've known them through friends for over 20 years, if it's available they can get it. If not you're very out of luck. Holden new, used, Rare Spares, CRS, if it can be bolted into a Holden car they are aware of it.

    Good advise and they have always been a great place to get parts but I doubt a Sydney sider like intelliGEORGE would not already know about them as they have been there for ages
    It's hard to make a come back when I havn't been anywhere
    I finally got my head together, now my bodies falling apart.

    Yeah, found rare spares to be a bit too steep for restore projects as most of the parts for the 1 tonner have been sourced from eBay.

    E.g. 350ci Chrome dress up kit, containing over 28 pieces (full kit) US$58.00 + AU$70.00 P&H so all up about $150.00 Aussie. Where as just the rocker covers and 14" Air filter covers would have cost the same if sourced locally.

    I'm still deciding whether or not to approach ebay for some sort of sponsorship or advertising deal as 95% of the car and restoration items were purchased through their site.
