Any interest in Uaz, Ural, Kamaz, Lada parts??

[LallyTrek]

Hey gang,

I'm living in Mongolia for a bit and will be trying to fill a shipping container with a couple vehicles and loads of parts. My friend and I want an Uaz 452 because...well...just because. If we put them in a shipping container, that leaves a lot of space inside the vans for parts. Is there a decent market for Soviet truck parts? There's a market in town where I can get gear boxes, pto winches, wheels, engines, heads, axles, difs, old ammo boxes, jerry cans, and even larger truck parts for Kamaz and Urals etc.

There were a couple old Ural side car bikes too!!

I guess I'm just looking for advice on what might have a resale value in the states to help cover the cost of shipping our vans home. Also, if you're desperately looking for something, I'd be happy to keep my eyes out for whatever it is.

how about some portal axles

Oi. I wish I could find some portals kickin about here. There actually are quite a few unimogs around, but none being parted out that I can find. Plenty of those cool Uaz axles that split in half at the center of the dif though. Not entirely sure how useful or strong they are, but they're kind of cool....

And I just moments ago realized I violated one of the first rules of posting in the for sale section! If this post needs to be deleted or moved to another section, I won't complain. My apologies, gang!

Check your PMs. Might be interested in a Ural sidecar body, or perhaps the whole shebang.

I'll send you a PM in a couple minutes.

I can't believe no one has asked me for a Niva yet.....
