Hey thanks for the heads up steve, im trying to get everything togethor to go to regency. I cant believe the rules down here, back in QLD you go to your local dodgy Roadworthy mechanic, he gets the vin number and engine number off the car and he gives you the certificate. You go to queensland transport and fill out a form give them the RW and pay them and away you go all regoed and dosin it outta there.
How much for the VB one?

Went to Lonsdale UPI today. Wow what a joke of a joint. The place is 1/8th the size it use to be. Nothing is in any form of order or anything. Quite disappointing i use to love the old UPI. Didnt stop me from spending almost 2 hours there today though lol.
Heads up for you guys. If anyone's needs the following.
Theres a brand new set of front rotors on a white VL
A set of wagon roof racks and mint rear door gas struts. Red car.
There was also a brand new Alternator on another VL.
Also some sideskirts similar to the aero style. White VL
Overall theres only about 6 VL's on the lot.
But if you need a set of Venetians for a xf falcon wagon there's about 3 sets there lol.

Yep, I went down on the VIP opening and it's half the size of the old place. Apparently they are supposed to be moving cars through ever couple of weeks but the yard is so small it's not worth it.

28-07-10, 18:14 GMT+10#51 Anyone know who the tard is that has basically f*cked every dash in every VL at the northern yard ?!!
Out of 16 or so cars most of the dash tops are out and sitting in the cars, along with all the other dash bits, but all are rooted, having been yanked out rather than use a simple screw driver once in a while. What on earth was this bloke trying to get at ?
U-Pull-It should add a charge of $500 to the $50 worth of crap this guy bought to cover the lost sales he caused them by busting stuff. Bloody frustrating.

10-09-10, 18:02 GMT+10#55 Went down to elizabethia today. Didn't think it was too bad , if your chasing interior stuff your pretty screwed tho, interiors have been raped and are filth. About 15 VLs down there, all autos i think. Few berlinas. Plenty of dizzys and afms still attached, a few complete motors, Some with LPG and one with extractors. Got what I was after.

Hey buddy thanks for the hook up! Took it out today, not 100% that its original, its a hollandia. Not sure if im putting it in the calais or not but for the price, im not complaining!
Also spotted a calais rim there too, about $33 for the rim price wise i reckon.

21-09-10, 16:56 GMT+10#60 went tho the north yard today, there was a fresh VL there. It was kimberley bronze exec with sandalwood trim. all the trim in great nic and all in tact. It had a high rise console and sunnies holder, the engine bay was in pristine condition and everything bar the AFM and engine loom was still there.
There was also a new wagon next to that which had silver 15x6" stockie with center caps and bald tyres, clean S2 blue exec trim.
Thats all I noticed, I just grabbed what I needed and left.
