Wrecking

[downhill]

Hi Beddites,
My old van must go soon the last big parts are a 173 engine, standard trimatic box driveshaft & diff. The font end also stock, steering rack & column. Located Brisbane. Will be available for a few weeks before  it goes to the scrappers. Rental house means I can't keep it  as a store room, paint shop or cubby. Free to good home.

Where about in Brisbane?

[mezzmo]

i'm looking for a good floor shifter set up for my trimatic that has a good solid 'lock in place shifter' and an inhibitor switch - is your set up stock?

Hi Shane,
I'm  over in Redcliffe  work  arvos, txt to 0432676450 if you wanna have a look, most welcome.

Hi Mezzmo,

Yes the shifter is stock to the trimatic, thru the floor, round knob with a small rectangle button on top, a screw in hatch. I'll take it out, looks like it works ok. Will have to check for the switch,it'll be on the gearbox, yes?

Thanks responders!

Downhill, the switch should be on the bottom of the selector, inside the van. There should be 4 wires plus the light into that area.

Mezzmo, I have a spare switch if needed, but unsure how "good" the rest of the unit is.

    Hey Downhill ,   Would there be any chance you could shop out a section for me.
                             Dont have the exact measurements , but my rear R/H  tail-light section
                             has been smashed . All fixed now , but its not the same as before .
                             Any information will be appreciated .

                             Thanks Frank
