Breaker's Yard for Old Campers

Alesi27

Howdy all?

Just wondering if there's anyone out there who would know where I might get some parts for a Talbot Express camper. The parts I'm after are the same on a Fiat Ducato, Citreon C25, and certain Peugeot Boxsters. Breakers would be ideal. All help really appreciated,

Cheers,

scarce... what exactly do you need? I have some parts.

THanks for the reply. I'm looking for the wiper mechanism [the one on my van is seized]. I also need one or both door mirrors [the larger type mounted at the top and middle of the forward door frame and also an exhaust pipe.
The main item at the moment is the wipers - the others aren't essential but will need replacing.

Cheers,

Hi I'm looking for the piece under the front grill if you have anything like that.

I've always managed to free the spindles up... or is it the motor? If so you can fit the one from a 94 on ducato .

You could always put out a request on breakeryard.com or 1stchoice.co.uk ... you may get lucky.

Door mirrors you should get on ebay

Hi all,

Thanks for the replies. I was actually away for a few days with the camper there so only got around to going online now. I got the wipers freed up - it was the spindles as it turned out and not the motor so that's good.

Re: the bit under the grille there's an old Talbot Freeway at the camper dealers near Arklow which he's breaking and you might get your piece of that - hope it helps.

I'm looking for a Glow Plug Relay from an old Mercedes van, the one I have clicks in but doesn't cut the power to the plugs once she's warmed up. Eventually blows all the plugs due to them being heated all the time while driving. I've been plugging the relay in and out to avoid blowing the plugs as a workaround for now. Would like to go the OEM route and keep the van original rather than wiring a switch/push button etc directly to the plugs.

Part Number is: 007 545 9932

Anyone know where I'd pick one up? I've tried a few breakers but none have the old Mercedes vans...

If you are ever looking for new or 2nd hand parts for the late 80s early 90s campers built on T Express, C25, Ducato, Peugeot J5 (all same van) Try the french ebay and search on "j5 pieces" - i.e. j5 parts

eg
http://pieces-auto.shop.ebay.fr/Camion-et-Utilitaire-Pieces-/89440/i.html?_nkw=j5

google translate can fill in the gaps in your junior cert french!

This part is also found in the W124 250D and in the 190D. From my experience most of these cars are stripped off mechanical parts when they reach a breakers as they are very sought after in Africa etc. A new one should cost you less than €100 and are available online.
