TODAY I FINALLY GOT THE PARTS I WANTED. The guys at the scrap yard removed it in a few minutes. Spent 2 hrs at the scrap yard finalizing what i wanted and the costs.
this is what i got
front uprights, brake discs, calipers, wheel hub (Isuzu front)
rear uprights, brake discs, calipers, wheel hub (nissan pulsar front)
the entire steering rack and part of the steering column (isuzu)
the total cost was $ 320 , $60 of which was for the labor. I got a free tool cabinet.
the guy offered to give me a set of 4 rims and tires for $100, i mite pick them up too.
All the parts will be ready on Monday for collection.
there are some problems though. I might swap the Isuzu calipers for another pair of Nissan pulsar calipers if they can be mounted easily on the Isuzu uprights. The Nissan's calipers are a lot better. I have to do some research on how hand brakes work cause they are required by the Australian design rules to make the car road legal. I think only the rear calipers of cars support a handbrake. I am not sure gotta check up.
Overall it was a good day, more parts after a long wait.
