Actually I did not see Ecology Wilmington making the list. This makes sense as there are already two LKQ Pick-A-Part yards within spitting distance from this yard. 1 Quote Link to comment
king bee66 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 there is an '81 s110 at the lkq in south austin. its got an h165 with disc brakes 1 Quote Link to comment
67_1600 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 In case anyone might see the B210 listed at NWAR in Lake Stevens, it's been pretty well stripped already: . There is also a really rusty and rough '82 or '83 280zx but the struts are gone. Quote Link to comment
gene knight Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 There is 1 of those here in Phoenix with that same color Quote Link to comment
Dguy210 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 620 in Rocklin. Head and carb had already been pulled. Bed was messed up, had an extended travel tank. Rear slider was intact although a hole was drilled at the top. Points ignition, dash had a sunpro tach but was cracked, had modified console and crappy bench seat. Door panels were in the bed. Glass looked good, new drum brake cylinders on the front. Rear bumper was tubing aftermarket and had been hit. Front bumper and grill looked ok. Quote Link to comment

riaan140z Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 damn i am so amazed at what is sold in these pages as scrap cars or why the hell some of these cars end up in wrecking yards.. the cars we build in South africa sometimes dont even look half as good as cars being scrapped. Would love to go to america with a suitcase full of money and just buy up cars. 5 Quote Link to comment
Seeker > 620 KC Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 There is a very early 620 in the San Bernardino, CA PaP, green, against the wall. All the body parts and interior is junk, but the trans, drive shaft, diff, and suspension is all there, along with door both glass, and 5 stock rims. They already un-listed it from their inventory so it might not be there much longer. The head is gone, block looks seized, but intake and fairly clean carb are laying on block. 1 Quote Link to comment

Also sad that whoever sold it to the yard didn't realize someone else would want it, and likely pay double or more scrap price. 1 Quote Link to comment

heretic Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 I agree to a certain degree but sadly the "system" ..... shit, the world is no longer setup to repair or rebuild broken things. It's become a disposable society. Not to mention Pick n Pull is owned by Schnitzer Steel. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest to find that they make far more money on scrapping the cars & recycling them then parting them out. Whats sad, is some yards won't sell whole cars.

thatdirtykid Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 I love when prius owners tell me about my gas guzzling poloution machine... My 35mpg b210. Then you remind them how fewer emissions there would be if we stopped making new cars in current volume and kept our old ones longer. Fucking Boulder CO... This actually happens to me a few times a year. 1 Quote Link to comment

720_Jeff Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Went to the Hesperia Pick a Part today. Saw last night they had posted this truck as having entered the yard on 10/20/15 I got there at 7:30am, so no body in the yard. The left front rim was gone already. The interior is torn up now. Carb in the box is gone. Door panels are gone. 3 of 4 rims are now gone :) I took two rims, left the 3rd one as I thought it had some deep scratches in the face of the rim. All center caps were gone. I also picked up a tach and non working clock. Looks like a resistor fried on the board. 1 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Any chance you would pick up that steering wheel and hub for me? 1 Quote Link to comment
tdaaj Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Yeah should have grabbed that steering wheel 1 Quote Link to comment
720_Jeff Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Yeah should have grabbed that steering wheel Yeah, didn't think about that. I'm not sure I have a socket that fits. Anyone know what size? It's about 85 miles from the house, so not sure if I'll make it back again or not, but if I do, I would need to socket size :) 1 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 It's a 22 or 23 mm. Standard 7/8 fits well enough that you could use it. Any Ratsunners in the high desert? 1 Quote Link to comment
