ACCO rear springs
 
A friend of mine has a 4X4 ACCO Mk3 and is looking for a set of NOS rear springs.

Does anyone have a source? What happened to the parts from Northern Truck Wreckers?

G'day keith, when I was in Albury/Wodonga during the YOT Carrier Mr Toole's told me he was exporting things to China in other words SCRAP!!!, they did not sell us anything at the time at a reduced rate which I thought was silly (he could have made a killing at the Corowa swap meet!) and I do know that they had a very large auction approx 5 w-7 weeks ago and now the business is just about kaput for the want of a better word shame bout that cheers Dennis.:(

Not everything went to China as scrap! But why wasn't the auction more widely advertised?

G'day Tony, my sources tell me that they (N.E.T.W) sent out flyers to bigger dealers in most states but I heard that the prices they wanted were a tad high so they went with the auction option, I know where a quantity of ex-mil Landrover bits went but no information on any other makes, damn shame but thats life. It's like everything else it's too late once it's gone cheers Dennis
