JT auctioning/dissolving all Autococker items....

Mr. Furious · 04-05-2008, 08:41 AM

From PBN so take it with the usual grain of salt but if true this is bad news:

JT WGP to auction their inventory - PbNation

LUKE · 04-05-2008, 09:01 AM

The thread states it was posted in a dealer's email....we have a few dealers here, any able to confirm this?

Never been much of a cocker fan...but I keep toying with the idea of picking up a real cheapo to better acquaint myself with them and their functioning.

Jeff Orr has posted in the thread as well and confirmed it, so it's true.

So, this is the official end of the Autococker?

Heck no it's not. PPS still makes parts and pneumatics for them, and a whole host of other folks supply bodies, etc. It's totally possible to create a 100% WGP-parts-free autococker, so the fact that WGP is auctioning off their inventory doesn't at all mean the end of the autococker.

Who didnt see this coming?

I wonder what their next line up will be...most likely something consistent with the current market.

I know, I meant more the official, supported end. I know that you can still get other new parts, and that you can easily build a 'Cocker from parts and will be able to for years to come. Kind of how like the Sheridan is dead, even though some people are still making parts for them.

I would still buy an SR....

AGDRetro · 04-05-2008, 10:05 AM

So this means the Automag won then?

SHAG · 04-05-2008, 10:30 AM

Hi,

Oh well in the way of the dino. I don't think AGD won either. However I love some of the fanboy type comments though. I don't get the cocker thing and even I owned about 5 of them. One of them twice! Go figure. If anyone won it would be Palmer's. They are still alive and kickin' plus they too are diversified.

Do you think he means it will be easier for cocker owners to buy used parts because there will be more of them?
