And then there is half a double garage full of dads parts for his mobile mechanic buisness.

[private9]

Probably about 15-20 in the shed, plus some extractors, plus a few up in the roof, plus the bits I leave floating around in the boots of the cars!

oh wait haha i need a coffee

[XCSEDAN]

hrmmm ours arnt in boxes... they are more hung on walls, or placed neatly on a shelf (we have to make them neat otherwise we cant fit all the parts on) but at a guess....
probably 2 cubic meteres of stuff? oh yeah... plus whatever comes off my XC...

[The Monty]

I have 1 or 2 spread out, plus a spare set of 15's on rims, and a spare set of 16's on rims, and a hilux wheel (found it in my old houses garde), a couple of hubcaps, two exhausts, a heap of turbo stuff awaiting install, thats all I can think of.

[[Tonko]]

The whole shed is piled up with crap. mostly XD-F but there are alot of XW and XY parts, badges, panels, dashes, diffs, wheels, steering wheels, gauges, about 10 doors, windows, 6 bumpers, gearboxes... When we bought the XY for my sister, it came with 2 12x6 trailerloads of the above parts the guy collected over 30 years...
Not bad for $1200

[5.0failane]

I think last time I tried to move it all it was 3 or 4 car trailers worth, its probably down to about a double carport full now.

[R0BD0G]

an escort boot full

[meg]

2 single garages full, including rafters shelving and any available space that can be found with enough room to touch park the cobra to it all and squeeze the door shut.

[irsa76]

1 box, which the wife keeps hinting will be thrown out if she gets a chance, with a Triumph PI system, some Commodore bits under the bench and a drawer full of driving lights. Not much point in having boxes of bits for the wagon, 2003 Verada, and the Charade is the beater so who cares.

[Billy351]

About four more that usual as my wife trashed the front of her car on Sunday. And the yard is full of the bits I got from the wreckers for it today.

[xbgs351]

None lying about - they are stored.

[Dezza]

I have one decent size box containing many things from an EA headlight and indicators, steering wheel, climate control and trip computer units, and many auto related parts, to a bent clutch fan and other junk. I also have a complete 4 speed auto transmission sitting right next to the box, and 2 bumper bars sitting on top of it. I actually cleaned it up a fair bit yesterday!

[dannyxm]

I had part of my shed full of all sorts of stuff that we acumulated over the years.
A couple of C4 autos, single rails and a few bits and pieces of earlier Falcons XPs XYs etc.
I have a little 289 Windsor on a stand slowly being put back together also, after it sat there for a long while......
We had a clean out and sold most of em, but still have some bits and pieces.

[TheSneakiness]

Two boxes and a spare set of 17's.

[mrniceguy]

About 3 boxes. That will all change once i start stripping the Landau though.

[Simmo]

no boxes. 7 foot high set of shelves full of stuff though. and 2 drawers of a tallboy. and about a 1 square meter corner of the garage.

And I'm buggered if I'm even going to attempt to try & list what I have stored.

[swanee]

I have too many in the garage/bedroom/shed/backyard/etc

all for a variety of cars (EL Falcon, XB Falcon, BA Falcon, AU Falcon. HG Kingswood)

[Miller]

All under the house is full of escort/cortina parts

[xbcool]

I'm pretty new to the car game in the eyes of my mates (only a 20 year collection)
the wife reckons we could knock the piers out from under the house and it wouldn't move, the kids reckon I should ebay most of the crap .
I think I'll keep adding to this collection for another 40 odd years and give em all something to clean up after I'm gone

[Feathers]

Most is Dad's, some is mine, and all of it is rubbish.
