OTHER: former auto recycling Company visit

Last Saturday my friend Stev organized a visit at a former car recyling Company which now has been sold and the new owner is selling-out a lot of stuff. So naturally we had to visit. I Also met Jerome petitjean of Swiss Zcarracingteam fame with his beautiful Datsun Violet A10 SSS (Datsun 160J). I’ll present you that car in a following post.
The place ws Huge and they had kinda everything for oldtimers in an unbelievable amount:
Doors and hoods for all kind of 70ies and 80ies cars:

Engine anyone? 🙂

trunks:

Toyota Corona doors in any factory colour 🙂

the owner even offered on a weird Humus sausage and chicken wraps for free 🙂

A Huge room full of leaf springs (!!!)

or maybe you’re more into steering racks?

Looking for a Transmission maybe? 🙂

Or a Driveshaft?

Maybe complete rear axles? 🙂

Huge amounts auf rare gauges and electronics:

Shelves full of Alternators and starter engines:

Classic car grilles:

This is me with my “shopping cart” 😀 Sadly all the Z-parts have been sold a while ago. but my friends bought a lot of stuff for their rare Datsuns.

I Couldn’t help myself but buy these two grilles: A nice Toyota Corolla E30 grille and a beautiful Mazda RX-2 Grille complete with RE- and Super-deluxe badge. both in great condition. Will hang them above my bed and put them up for sale if someone is willing to pay a good price 🙂
