todays scrapyard bargain!!
« on: 16 May 2009, 19:26 »
I went to the local scrappy to see if i could find anything useful- particularly a mk2 small red stripe bumper. I was having a nose around a D plate Golf GTD and I couldnt beleive my eyes when I looked inside!!!!!!!  It had rear headrests!!! Ive been after these for donkeys years and they had always eluded me because of the cost. Id even collected spare headrest covers many many years ago! Anyway, £10 later and they were mine!

Well happy!

things like that never happen though. Ive seen the only Turbo Technics Santana scrapped there, and found all sorts  in the past- just wish Id kept a bit more!

Actually, saying that, I think it was a black one he was trying to get an engine mount off of for me a few months ago (remember I told ya bout that G60 one I took back to GSF??) If it's that one, it's got another car on top of it

quite a few trick bits on the gtd you can pinch, massive rad, maybe has the top mount intercooler, exhaust manifold for 8v turbo etc
