Went for a mince in a scrapyard today.....

[Spudly]

Went to Youpullit today to see what bits and bobs were there, and saw a random stripped (and very very rotten) calypso red GTE down a side track just outside....

Really dont know why its there, my guess is its possibly stolen and abandonned....

So once inside we found a stunning corsa with a right cool sticker on the bumper corner.....

This looks mint and i really cant see why its there tbh...

Then off to a local scrapyard afterwards to find this poor looking thing squished...

[vaughanmc]

Can't beat a rummage at the scrappys :)

[Markd89]

get out of jackos :) i had the slabs off that cav sri and some bits out of the nova,
that kadet is very fast, not sure whats in it though

[Spudly]

Kadette is on ATS wheels, similar to brettski's only the straight spoke version, id love to go back and raid the window surrounds and a few other bits off that GTE but some guy that looked like an extra from the film wrong turn appeared and we didnt hang around too long lol



Lol @ mark, first time ive ever been let in jackos he never normally lets people in from what ive heard, boo at you raiding that SRi poor thing and i reckons that Kadette is possibly a let:thumb:

[vaughanmc]

Where abouts was it abandoned Spud, is it where loads of people can see it ?

As you drive into youpullit near York there is like an industrial estate next to it and its down there, its visable from the road as you drive in!

[Jim Mcrae]

Ex cop car with police aware sticker?

[Mike]

Loving the fleet of messed up ex police cars

Espcially LOLing at the Ironic Police Aware sticker

GTE is a reet nice colour!

[Markd89]

Lol @ mark, first time ive ever been let in jackos he never normally lets people in from what ive heard, boo at you raiding that SRi poor thing and i reckons that Kadette is possibly a let:thumb:

he lets me in im there most days * cough and nights *
he doesnt live that far from me i'll ask him if he pulls over i chased him once but i didnt catch him i only wanted to ask what it was lol

[Mike]

Bet that GTE is stolen an dumped tbh

[daverobson]

there's a fairly clean mk3 astra gsi squished under a passat at my local, shame.

[LEWI007]

Go and salvage everything off the GTE before it gets crushed.

[Spudly]

Ex cop car with police aware sticker?


We have a winner, surely the feds knew it had been crashed as they crashed it lol



Bet that GTE is stolen an dumped tbh

Thats my thinking behind it tbh mike, the wierd guy asked if we wanted to buy it as he wanted it shifting, i thought im not paying for it but there are a few bits could be saved though!



LEWI, the GTE posibly wont be getting crushed as its not actually in the scrapyard its just abandonned near the entrance road!

[Joe Richardson]

was that cav at piggots spud,or you pull it :)

i would love to get some bits off that gte now:(

[Joe Richardson]

ah right,im surprised there still some scrapyards with these sort of cars still in there !

[Spudly]

Jackos is an old skool scrappers mate, he has bits of chopped up everything kicking about, all the cars are just slung in wherever and there are some that have been in there for years lol

[vaughanmc]

Local scrappy to me keeps Nova's for about a year or so - Just crushed one not that long ago with 15k on the clock...Long before this scrappage scheme nonsense...

Another local scrappy has a 1.5 Nova D in as well...Don't think it's a TD anyway

[Graeme]

If you go back Spud will you get a price on that Cav spoiler please as rumour has it they fit a saloon

[Mike]

I like going to the import breakers in Birmingham TBH, much better looking at smashed up Jap imports then old skool british things lol

[Adam]

Yeah a white one in for whole car breaking, such a shame but at least the parts will help others live on rather than just get squished!

Physically, yes; a hatchback exhaust will fit a saloon. Although the tailpipe may come up short, so will be very noisy from inside.
