This weekend U Pull It at York and Inverkeithing have a 'all you can fit in a wheel barrow' for £40 See here www.u-pull-it.co.uk/home.htmlBasically get as much stuff from their parts yard as you can, pile it high in a barrow and pay the fixed price plus vat. They have hundreds if not thousaands of cars in their yard, loads and loads of renaults, fords, vws etc and a few bmws, saab 900s and volvos. Nearly eveything is at least 10 years old, so, i'm thinking of what to get to make a few bucks Looking on ebay i'm shocked to see E36 tailights going for £10, and even headlights struggling to make £20 I'm wondering what you wouild recommend would serve the beast 'yeald'? There's a few integras and the odd Legacy....? Thanks  |

is that 40 quid (+vat) for all you can carry in a wheelbarrow, from one car?
or scour the yard, fill a barrow for 40 (+vat)?
and how many helpers allowed?

Any car you like,any amount of helpers as you like.As long as it all fits in the wheelbarrow and isent actually falling off a 3ft pile.
Its not as good as you might first think.Have a look at their prices anyway,really cheap.You`d probably fill a barrow anytime paying their normal prices.
I love the place at york.Theres afew retros in like a kitten,mk1 and 2 golf,few jags and old volvos.Always get my parts cheap and theres no whistling through teeth or blowing of cheeks when you ask how much a part is,as its a set price no matter the car.
They sometimes do the barrow load for 25 too.

Look at all the plastic people who live without a care.Try to sit with me around my table,but never bring a chair.

how about wheels, if you could find a good set of alloys or steels you could stack them up.Wheels like these on this polo  |

If enough people could get a barrow to roll with the polo on would it be £45? |

how many injectors, fuel pumps, and cats can I get in a wheel barrow? Lots! That has occured to me, i'm going to concentrate on one car (cinquecento as it happens) and strip the four they've got. They've got a picture somewhere showing how if you fill the barrow with smaller parts then lay a bonnet on top, you can get a set of wheels, steering column etc on top of that! Their everyday prices are cheap but this is too tempting to pass.. |

Turbos in good nick - gotta be worth fifty to a ton a piece after some elbow grease and Gunk.
Coil packs might be a winner too.

go and chop the cat out of every car there, fill a wheelbarrow with them, take to normal scrappy and weigh in at 30-40 quid a time.......500 quid for a days getting dirty.

A good friends Dad spent his redundancy cheque on one of the machines that turn catalytic converters into small piles of precious dust & started going round all the local yards buying as many cats as he could get his hands on.
He's now doing literally hundreds a month and has just taken delivery of a brand new Audi R8 supercar..
