KlassicMotion Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Since the rest of those parts are 510, then I'd assume that engine is 510, in which case, that oil pan and pick up tube might be worth $30-$50 (to someone doing an L20B swap that doesn't already have an engine in their car), and could probably be gotten for $10. I had to pay $35 for my pan without pick up tube, plus $15 shipping.... Quote Link to comment
littlejason Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Here's a report from the Boring u-pull: it's no longer u-pull! (You might already know this.) Son of a bitch!! Reminds me of the time the Damascas u-pull became no longer u-pull. Son of a bitch!! Quote Link to comment
littlejason Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 So this development made me pretty sad, I thought I would take this opportunity to share my best memories of this junkyard. 1) I saw a 1200 sedan "race car" there. It had coil overs, full roll cage, etc. I think this is what made me want a 1200. The second time I saw it the struts were gone. I asked the guy "will you sell me a whole car?" He said, "everything is for sale." I went home and thought about it, the next time I went back the car was gone. 2) So I bought some other 1200, I thought maybe I would put a Toyota 3TC in it (puerto Rico style) then I suddenly found this at the same junkyard: I drove this home and it was the donor car for my Datsun.

littlejason Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Don't take your u-pull-it's for granted, someday we won't be able to go into junkyards! Quote Link to comment
tdaaj Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Did it go out of business or get bought out by a monopoly? Quote Link to comment
littlejason Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 It's now a B&R. If you can call that a monopoly. Quote Link to comment
KlassicMotion Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 I've got to say, I don't mind B&R too much. Their communication with their customers on over-the-phone orders suck, but they don't have any problem shipping items, so I can't complain much. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Weak. I've spent many a day driving hours just go go look around in that yard. Once stripped a 610 wagon completely down over a series of 3 days.. that place was a gold mine. Quote Link to comment
67_1600 Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 A '79 (or so it says) 620 showed up at the Arlington PnP in the last couple of days but doesn't show in inventory yet. The dash bezel and switches are all gone as is the steering wheel. I didn't see what engine it had (guessing L20B) but it does have a W53 head on it. The dash pad appears to be very nice.

king bee66 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Not a new car, but in the back of a '78 Ford pickup on row 29 at the Lynnwood PnP there is an L16 long block. Nothing special, has a 210 head. There's also an instrument cluster and bezel plus a pair of seats. The seats look pretty bad though. the crossmember would be worth saving as well, id be interested if the price Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yep i checked prices online and they would want $26. plus 9% tax just for the oil pan. Aaaaaand $2. entry fee. 25.99 02.33 9% tax 02.00 entry fee Grand total $30.32 And that doesn't even include the Teriyaki bowl and soda that would be needed.. Quote Link to comment
hobbes_the_cat Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 ^^^ what about the "environmental fees"? Those are never disclosed online it seems, and I think they vary depending on what you buy. 1 Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Exactly. I am so glad pnp has bought out so many of the greedy lazy small yards and stabilized prices. It used to be a lot more hit and miss. Quote Link to comment

CGS1948 Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 ^^^ what about the "environmental fees"? Those are never disclosed online it seems, and I think they vary depending on what you buy. And how about the state tax that they charge on the $2.00 entrance admission fee? They only tax the admission fee if you actually buy something on the way out of the yard. Quote Link to comment
