BNE: Wrecked U13 Bluebirds
« on: Oct 4, 2005, 06:28PM »
This may be useful to help U13 owners find parts :)


There's a U13 Bluebird SSS Series 1 manual at All Auto Recycling at Strathpine/Brendale.
It's been in a rear ender so most of the rear parts are fucked.
The leather SSS steering wheel is still on the wreck, its in good condition but they want $220 for it.
The headlights are available for $150 each (Counterpunch) and the gear boot is still available (sssbluebird).
Cheers.

There's a U13 Bluebird LX wreck at Sandgate Wreckers at Sandgate (well duh ;) )...
Plenty of parts available.

There's also a U13 Bluebird SSS Series 2 wreck at Sandgate Wreckers...
It's been in a rear ender and most parts are gone anyway.

Hmm interesting, but they're a rip off for most to all parts.

Yeah that's true unfortunatly, for the piece of plastic that covers the drivers footwell, All Auto Recycling wanted $40 even though a clip was brokern on it.
Just since they are rarish cars, they can get away with charging through the roof on some items.

Thought i'd dig this up again, seeing as there are a few members with WTB in the for sale section... If a mod could make this a sticky, that would be great...

These are the wreckers that i know of who currently have some U13 wrecks. However, i'm not too sure of the condition of them or what parts are left.

ABC Wreckers at Oxley - burgundy and charcoal
Capalaba Wreckers - had quite a few last time i was there
Pacific Wreckers at Yatala - green (was advertised on Trading Post.com)

My mate's at ABC atm, and he said there's 3 x U13's there. I know one's a sss (i bought the leather gear stick boot off it a few weeks ago), and one's an LX (he sent me a pic of the LX steering wheel)...

I haven't had a chance to go for a look myself as i can't exactly walk into a car yard in nice work clothes and heels...

Why not? you might get some free stuff... either that or majorly over charged.  :P

Yeah although rocking up to work after lunch break covered in grease isn't gonna make the best impression though.

Yeah ABC wreckers just off the ipswich motorway. My mate said they were near the new stuff, not with the rest of the nissans. I'll talk to him sometime and find out exactly where and what models/colours they are. Or perhaps pop in myself one day after work if they're open...

Dont need to get them off the bluey, i got some from a FORD falcon and they are like brand new and are much higher so you can adjust them more.
