Cooma Wrecker

[RodneyOh]

HI all

thought i might punch this one in.

I drove to the snow this year and only just stepped back in the door for a snowboarding session and passed a massive graveyard "old old wreckers",

you can actualy see the yard by google maps just zoom into cooma and head out towards the snow fields by like 1km. and see the size of it.

Never had a chance as a 14hr drivehome is hectic enought without being caught up in there, "with the missus in hand"

Anybody been there? from the road thecars look to be aged 1930's - 1980's?

any goss?

ive not heard of it ...being in another state :)

I wish i had the time to look around, I mean there looked like some history there. If i get time tomorrow I'm going to give them a call and see what they have laying around. too bad its 14hrs away otherwise i would spend the weekend there.

I do have the number, but ill share it after my turn first, this is my pot of gold. and i will share, after i get my piece first.

Oh got my engine bay painted Jewels its the new toyota yaris gunmetal grey 1G3.

and ill post some stuff when i get around to it.

Dunno about pot of gold, that yard's very well known been there for decades (it's as old as the cars, probably) and the owner is no dummy. I wandered through it, must be 20 years back. Huge. Recently there were some pics from the yard posted on classic fords forum, and yes there were a couple of cortys but pretty worse for wear. Last I heard he was charging entry just to go and have a look...

Haven't been myself but last I heard it was $15 or $20 to get through the gate.

Well there you go....

I drive past every snowseason and just wish i had the time. Hows the charge rate, genius :P

Well there you go, people do know about it. Still amazing.
