  1. I love my volvo 240 wagon for helping people move.

     

    Have fit a 3 seater sofa in the boot. Also have fit a 6 seater dining table Lying flat.

     

    Plus a towbar so throw a trailer on and move all of the shit at once.

     

    Not cheap anymore though unless you find one that needs work

  2. Cletus, Can you give me a bit more info on the York set up? How did you go about lubricating the pump?

     

     

     

     

    Yorks run their own oil sump that lubricates the piston, if the rings are still good should have minimal oil going into the air lines, there are also mods that can be done to them that reduce it even further.

     

    I have never actually used one in an airbagged car but have bought and sold maybe 30-40 of them over the years to minitruckers and offroading people.

     

    They are quite cool wee things, can pump like 18CFM at redline and have an electric clutch so can disengage them when not in use.

  3. Pick A Part was owned and run by a man called Ross Green, I used to work for him, when he died it was taken over by his wife, and daughter.

    People always told me it was run by a gang, but we just made it feel like that :)

     

    Trade me has had absolutely no effect on my particular wrecking yard, but that's because we are generally cheaper than the trade me prices, and we stock different stuff. The problem is some wreckers think they are sitting on a gold mine and they just want too much for stuff, and unfortunately some people are the same on trade me.

     

    There should be room for everyone, I guess it depends on what stock you have tho?

     

    Can you start stocking some volvo stuff? volvo wreckers are the worst for not wanting to sell stuff lol
