Hi guys,
Can anyone advise me as to the availability of body parts for this particular vehicle.
I have checked the Quokka religiously every week here in the West, but whilst there are some XB Fairmonts and plenty of XC Falcons, XC Fairmont's seem a dying breed.
Can someone advise me of a realistic wrecking price should I decide to wreck my Fairmont instead.
Kind regards
George

What parts do you need to repair it? Are you in W.A? IS the Quokka some sort of Trading Post? (funny name)Have you tried www.superoo.com.au?

No probs George. By the way they also take Wanted ads, so you can advertise for free for the parts. Ads close 8pm Tuesday night.
Hint..don't use a mobile number or else give a mobile and a landline number, people won't ring mobiles for stuff you want, bu

Dont wreck your XC Fairmont... They are a great model and will be worth a lot of money in the next 5 - 10 years...
Death and life are just as pleasant as one another... Its the transition that is painful!

Unfortunately, it was the rust that got her this time and is only a former she

there is no such thing as a fairmont gxl wagon or coup for that matter.Gxl only came in sedan "jg32" I have one of the best "jg32" in australia and know heaps on this topic.. so sorry to say but your wagon is just a fairmont with a "rally pack" option...

I have just seen the "jg32" stamped on the shockie support of an xc photo on another web page. So I have found the answer to my own question. ...... I have just brought an xc advertised as an gxl. I will have to check my own once I get back home????
