Recommended Posts

Bob, over on the ToyyoOC, has broken the triangular piece between the rear door & hatch, drivers side = R.H.

 

No nationally stocked... Oh Surprise!

 

Breaker was found with one in... Smashed trying to get it out!!

 

Any $hiters here have a bead on a 'long forgotten' auld crate somewhere... ???

These were mini cabbed/ovalled 2deth :(

 

 

** big sellers in NZ.... Hello! Hello!! >> down there ;)

Called 'Corona' T150 shell elsewhere.

 

Thanks, anyone

Have you tried auto / national windscreens etc, last time I checked they had a whole range of weirdness in stock.

Alternative the insurance paid for a screen to be shipped from Aus for my old Holden

Fair enough, really. Bob broke the glass himself, by accident [not 'baby locked in car SHOCK!] and is unsure if anything (at less than the cars worth££) be worn by the Ins.

 

Hence.... D.I.Y.

You found one?

 

These were popular in NZ if you cant find one over here. Trademe.co.nz is their eBay so might be worth a shot if other options fail

 

For reasons of 'national security' [& to prevent shill bidding up].... His name will remain >> a Mysteron!

 

We all know who he is.....  ;)

Possibly* an internationally renowned Glass Corporation may sort out an office boy to pop over the road, in a far off country - where a piece of glass [the correct one] is alleged to be stocked >> but the stockist won't ship 'worldwide'  :-(  - and have it DHL back to Blighty  :-P

 

..... we will see .....

Anyone here 'up to speed' with Southern Ireland breakers?

 

I ask cos a search of dundeel has revealed 2x Carina (with windows!!) for sale as runners.

 

Do old Toyyos go straight to Africa/export??

 

... or end up with 'dawgs' in them, on a 1/4 acre??

Can he not manage with a piece of Perspex? Also has he tried a wander round the pits talking to people at a banger meeting?

.... I'm unaware of his 'freetime' excursions :/

 

However, a really 'enthusiastic' breakerboi offered him one - he attempted to explain 'hidden screws/latch' but was dismissed "we know what we're doinn, m8"

 

... and promptly broke it! :(
