thanks for the tip but this one will remain TOTALLY standard

Its a bit like the EXUP, you hardly ever see a completely standard one this far down the line.
Agreed things do look well modded :nod: but look what a bog standard 350LC fetches now :eek: :eek: :eek:

I watched a std twincam go for 10K on ebay just after xmas :nod: :nod: :nod:
looked identical to dads including colour scheme, but that had 107K on the clock :rolleyes:

cheers guys,

I'm currently trying to source the few necessary/ totally unnecessary bits for the car that need replacing

Unbelievably its the strangest things that you can't get anymore :retard:

WTF, can't get sunvisors for the interior :eek: ...I mean its not like someone had a spate of nicking them all and 2000 owners had to replace them....surely Toyota made SOME spares
The ones in the car are deformed due to mum attaching another visor extention to the bottoms via some sort of tie system :paranoid: They're all squashed up :crybaby:

Eyup Stig best find out what other Toyotas used the same parts and see if you can't find anything in Oz or SA as they are popular cars over there mate :nod:
