Re: Any Camaros being wrecked in Melbourne?

I see them spring up on eBay from time to time tho patience runs thin. I'll be selling a few things from my 84 z28 in about 6 months, I'm just starting a full strip down rebuild, its hard to own one of these in Melbourne, well in aus to. Tho try pontiworld, I don't think they do much second hand stuff but they seem to be pretty good at finding almost anything for these.

Pontiworld had a car being wrecked, but the parts I need are gone.

I've seen a couple pop on on eBay too, but none recently.

Might have to try straightening the K-Member. Also trying to find one in the USA and import it.

Re: Any Camaros being wrecked in Melbourne?

Hi,

anyone know of any third gens being wrecked in Australia at present?

I have a 1988 Camaro and am looking for the following parts:

A pair of front lower fender braces. These are thin strips of steel about 30cm long that tie the fender at the front bottom the wheel arch to the sub frame.

A T700 auto transmission cross member.

Parts for the door key lock. I’m looking for the 10cm long vertical wire that runs from the key barrel to the door handle.

Re: Any Camaros being wrecked in Melbourne?

I dont know of any ones being wrecked/stripped out, however most of those parts you mentioned just there could easily be fabricated.

Guard braces using some round rod with flattened ends, t700 could be fabbed with tranny in place. The door lock just get a longer rod from another car and bend it to shape.

Just suggestions.
