I have been hearing radio ads for Pick N Pull in the Seattle area having sales this weekend (20-50% off). I would imagine that it's company wide, so if you've got one near you it should be the same.

 

Not the greatest sale but:

And if you join (it's free) their card club they often have an earlier sale during the week to match the weekend only for card holders. This week they had the sale prices on Wed and Thurs.

Lynnwood, WA today at Pick-n-pull, got the Klotz/Morrisun big brakes for Datsun 1200, total cost $40 (thanks to 1/2 price sale)

 

The yard had only one Datsun today:

* Datsun 280ZX

And tons of Nissans. Probably 80 tons or more. Inventory is online at http://www.picknpull.com

 

I got a lot of parts ideas today smil49ca0afcda87f.gif

Engine swaps anyone? $160 for an engine, any engine:

 

Three complete RX7s! EFI or carb, take your pick.

Not posting photos of Rotor-motors, don't worry.

 

7MGE -- three of these complete (one might have been the 5M)

What kind of high-perf V6 is this with studs and domed pistons? I thought it was Alfa Romeo Milano? But there was another with complete engine!

CA20E from S12 - maybe not a great engine, but it's big and cheap and RWD

Did all the EFI stuff look complete and in good shape on that 280zx? I really want to do the L20b EFI. Just need to collect all the parts: Wiring harness, AFM, etc. Won't be able to make there until Saturday.

 

Also, is it me or does the Pick N Pull online inventory absolutely suck for Lynnwood, Arlington and Tacoma? Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I can never get it to show crap. It doesn't even list that 280zx.

Saw a guy take a 620 across the scales at columbia pnp was complete bad dizzy ran and drove good last month he said, they gave him to much for me to save it but it had a five speed , going to the lot in a few days probly

At NoPo PnP today, the 620 in row 2 they have listed as a 75 is actually a 78-79. Has lots of good running gear parts still, all front brake stuff and 5 speed... oh, and a sliding rear window. Most of the gold is gone, but not picked too bad yet.

The 75 on row 35 is pretty roachy, has a decent dash pad though, only one small crack. I got a good front hub off of it.

And a Roadster shell on about row 38-39... complete engine with carbs, dizzy, etc. Completely stripped otherwise. Windshield had a couple stars in it, but not too bad.

You know; I might just do that for ya. Do you think anyone would want the carbs?

 

 

Got it for him this morning. I stared at those carbs for about 10 minutes thinking the same thing, but knowing PnP they'd clip me 80 bucks or more for them so they are still there. I did place a floor mat over the exposed rockers though.

 

 

 

Oh and for teh lulz, Ratsun tag!

Awesome, thanks for updating. Keeps me from making a run out there. I noticed that PnP's stock checker doesn't even seem to have Roadster listed.

Carb prices

 

 

Thanks! By that price list those carbs and intake mani, which the linkage is attached to, would run $71.94 with core charges. Oh and add $6.49 for the throttle cable, so I was guessing about right. Prolly a good deal for someone who can use them... They seem to be in decent shape, but who knows, right? My guess is that car will be gone soon though, so if someone wants any of that engine stuff, don't wait too long!
