Ok i will add my bit.............:rolleyes:
Firstly this will make more money than its at. (if only to break)
Secondly its front end damage so wont be cheap to fix being a phase1 172. (only produced for 18 months so second hand parts are rare)
and thirdly this at Treynors, the last car i had off them was also a none runner because they had punched through the fuel lines with the folk truck making more damage underneath than the actual accident had caused! (some salvage agents are ok others are total monkeys!)
So if anyone wants to bid ......... fill your boots! I wont be bidding!:D

Well done Russ. :thumbs:

There's nothing like a sound bit of, experience based, advice to stop everyone dead in their tracks. :D
Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away!
