G'day all,
Back home we call businesses that retail pattern replacement parts, mostly to the motor trade, a 'motor factor'. What are these under in the yellow pages over here? Cheers, Alex |

Motor replacement parts, or Motor accessories - retail would be your best bet in the yellow pages. Main chains are Repco, Autobarn, Supercheap Auto, Autopro, Bursons, etc.
Sounds like we need to work on a pommy-aussie car terminology dictionary for you! I'll start with a few: wing = guard (front), quarterpanel (rear) nearside = left hand side/passenger side offside = rhs/driver's side Ask any you're wondering about though! breakers = wreckers Last edited by outback_ute; 18-01-2005 at 07:59 PM. |
