leaving work and i seen a L-series sedan on a tralior heading towards sims metal and i noticed spats... i followed the bloke and it was a genuine rx turbo in Awesom nick apart from the Drivers side seat and a tiny bit of rust in the rear window, awd all the goods and because i couldnt justify spending 300 and getting him to tow it to my place ( im a bit tight on money and need a heater at home) i let let a Genuine RX turbo get crushed.... i actually shed a tear... those parts to it could of gone a long way.... and i would of used the motor if not kept the car


Im sorry all


just had to say something

man...wat a waste? where did it go? pick a part?

sims metal recyclers.... crushed.... i felt so bad but i just couldn't justify the money. have spent the last 3 weeks with out a heater in my house and well waking up and it is 5deg aint a nice feeling unfortunatly priorities had to be made

If i could have known i would have given you the $300 to grab it, $300 is cheap for an AWD geabox and RX interior.

U shoulda bought it, then sold the parts and made a profit. Then you coulda bought a bigger heater.

haha yeah heater is getting installed on wed i found out and i don't get payed before then, im defiantly feeling really guilty i there would be a lot of guys out there wanting cheaper parts...

I Don't Know What To Say... That Post Almost Made Me Sick Reading It.
Right Now I Am Crying In My Chair...shame On You!

yeah tell me about it... i drove home thinking your an idiot.... :'( i could of used so much from it...

if it was running you could have slept in the car with heater on?!

haha yeah true... i really didn't have the room either even if it was for a strip, i have 3 cars here as it is....
from when i left i knew i has made a mistake.

Sorry all. i really am

Hah. My L series (DL) was sent to Sims on a trailer today (3 car pileup and with only 3rd party insurance it was rooted...)

I already miss it... can't wait to buy another L wagon

that is a shame i had the same thing happen to my 83wagon but was a t bone at an intersection on a highway, Was it your fault? at least you were insured... if nothing else

Good luck with finding another one

damn shoulda called all your friends to get them to buy /loan money etc. poor thing.

they were on the weigh bridge... had like 2min to make a descion

if i had the room i would of done it and more so if i diddnt score that awd box about a month ago...

could of uses a spare and the lsd rear and the spare motor though.... just unlucky i guess

We all have our regrets Schultzie, but ultimately the guy who had it crushed is the retard who didn't know what he had or how much it was worthl.

Don't beat yourself up about it, you didn't tow it to the crushers.
