  • Over 10 years replacing parts

    same car,
    one deal with allot of great business over the years,
    The car parts purchase that stands out was for brake guide pins from England,even though re-manufactured and low cost, with freight, to
    Tasmania they cost about same as a new set in Australia
    They came in a box perfectly addressed and printed in company name of proprietary business and presented by royal mail
    They could been sent to Buckingham

    Purchased two new tires for it recently,i found out i could now get the
    tires to fit it by asking around and online,there for many years i could
    only get one inch wider which was a bit over size,155s is what it is
    supposed to have,i ordered 155's from mainland to Tasmania in the end
    because of a a few reasons,it will actually cost me more than driving
    100km for fitment for which i got quoted $75 each fitted and balanced,I
    could not make it 100km or afford to get someone to to fit to car
    locally,I will be having them fitted to rims and balanced by a shop but
    not fitted to car

    replacing control arms lower front at present,have the parts,as the car
    is 33 years old the parts are scattered across many many retailers for different parts.
    The control arms were bargain at $177 freighted,they are a rather large wishbone

    $177 for 32 years old is very good value for air conditioning and
    warehousing even if produced aftermarket
    The last reparts run would have been over 15 years from today
