B.L.Z.BUB Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) Few pics of some of the Toyota's in there. I pulled out some XT130 struts and hid them like a bastard if anyone wants to know where they are. ;) There is an RT142 with a disc brake borgy too. A lot of them are pretty rough but if you're stuck they might have what you want. Edited December 10, 2012 by B.L.Z.BUB Quote
styler Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 What... the.... fark. Called them up a few months ago and they carried on saying nothing pre 90's left here. Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Posted October 16, 2012 There is a massive Toyota section, nothing older than a Ke30. But a shit load of 30/55/70, corona, celica, etc. A lot of the older stuff is in very poor condition though. If it wasnt so damn hot I would have taken more pictures. Quote
It's_AUDM_Yo Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) Yeah customer service is not on the agenda for them. I called up a few months ago asking for some stuff and the guy just said he couldn't be bothered to look up what cars they have. Edited October 16, 2012 by It's_AUDM_Yo Quote
rian Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Any MA61s? I would like some XT130 struts, but I'm poor. Anyone got any idea on what a wrecker would charge for a piar of struts? Quote
It's_AUDM_Yo Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 $80 is what a mate paid at another wrecker, so around that mark. Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) Any MA61s? I would like some XT130 struts, but I'm poor. Anyone got any idea on what a wrecker would charge for a piar of struts? MIght have been one or 2, wasnt paying too much attention (definitely no MA61 rims if thats what you're after). They charged me $44 each for XT130 steering arms, so I doubt they would be cheap. Struts are hidden under the front of this truck by the fence next to the Toyota's.

rian Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Okay sweet. Thanks, I might give them a call tomorrow. I was after some MA61 seats because they rule. Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Posted October 16, 2012 All the interiors of all of them are pretty much shot. Good for suspension, glass, maybe a few good panels. Quote
rian Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Balls! It's a self serve wrecker right? Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Posted October 16, 2012 Yeah, they don't have prices like one though. Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Yes I too have called them and asked, Hello, do you have any rwd toyotas on your lot? Response: " Oh I dunno man, there might be some down there, probably not." Plus I asked how much for something to gauge prices and they seemed expensive. Nothing beats wacol wreckers except they struggle to find toyotas now. Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Yeh been here at times, absolute last resort, prices are out of control excessive in my experience. you really are better off doing anything else to get the parts you need. Quote
JiP Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 I've known people to go and raid them at night. That is if you're not afraid of their guard cows lOl Quote
rian Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) Just called them, they want $264 for the pair of complete XT130 struts with hubs, rotors, and calipers. Seems reasonable I guess but I'd rather spend that money on other stuff. Edited October 17, 2012 by rian Quote
