That bullit car looks ubershit - it seems he hasn't even welded the 2 halfs together in alingment! - bloody death trap!

Autofive, found your original RR post on the Bullit Car. So someone actually used to drive around in that?

Are these recent? I'd love the wheel trims and door mirror from that Allegro!

Auto5 - so that's where it ended up!

Don't get your hopes up though, I took this pic of the same car 4 years ago

[morris_ital_lover]

Was that not one of the cars involved in "Oldskoolford" shenanigans, that or one similar.

Hope it's OK A5 but I've posted the Laurel over on the Datsun forum. There's usually someone after bits for those C32 Laurels. I'll PM you if anyone wants contact details.

 

Electronic ignition distributors (and coil, ideally) are worth a bit as an upgrade to 240/260Z owners. Interesting to see it's a manual one too.

Good to see the Bullit car end up in an appropriate place. VOSA would have had a field day with it if they'd ever caught it on the road.

i think scary has first dibs on the laurel. but i ll pass on any requests

[Spottedlaurel]

Thinking about getting it back on the road? I don't have very many bits for them any more, the shell of my old one got collected earlier in the year. Kevfromwales came and stripped the panels and lots of other bits off it.

[retrogeezer]

Nice spots, any more pics of the Escort van??

Nar, I think it's too far gone for that. I just registered interest in it on the offchance someone might want bits. Although, 2.4 straight six and manual box might go nicely in a capri....

Hi. Just joined Autoshite after posting on DOC forum by SpottedLaurel (thanks). Interested in some detaily bits from the Laurel (little things like mud flaps) to fit my 910 Bluebird estate.

Where is the scrapyard concerned? Hoping that it is not far from Newcastle upon Tyne where I live as the Laurel has Hexham plates on .......

Thanks

Whole lot of negativity going on in that thread.

[autofive]

VERY trying

Scrapyard owner is away until monday, I'll find out then what is up for grabs.

 

As to location, amusingly enough this Laurel is in Stanley.

[Talking Hoarse]

Anyone able to tell the location of the scrapyard & Laurel then please?

[M'coli]

There can't be that many scrapyards in Stanley - can there?

Yes, I recall seeing this online a few months ago. I bet the owner was beside himself after this happened - 'rare as rocking horse poo...'
