Period. The cars here donīt wait fully equipped on the yards to get parted out (as i saw on photos from US yards). They get parted out from the yardīs owner the moment they arrive! No way to get nice Vanagon parts. Besides, optional equipment doesnīt ever get to the yards. It will be parted out before and sold seperately. Besides, junkyards are not very common here. Not every 50km a huge one...(which is a pity, IMHO). Donīt know how it is farther south, but I am speaking about the Bremen area. Raimund |
