Best $20 I have ever spent

934rnr · 08-12-2004, 07:38 AM

Hey I went to the salvage yard 2 days ago I had to exchange one of the replacement doors I got for my runner because it was damaged. The replacemnt one was white and it had a leather panel on it. I decided I wanted the other panel I paid the $20 u-pull fee and came back with the other door panel and a replacement grill.

Old grill it is cracked on the drivers side:

New Grill:

I tried to find the other 2 doors off it but they were gone so I guess I'll be hunting for the other 2 door panels. The 4 Runner did have the leather seats in it but they were quite worn so I passed on getting the seats I'll find some at another time.

I also got a replacement fender the other day too for the drivers side I didn't take a pic of it I forgot to.

i love the yard i go to. they are right next door to my work so anytime something i like comes in i see it. Also i help them do some bobcat work from time to time so usually they give me whatever i want. so far i have gotten ( toyota brand brushgaurd, 99 tacoma wheels with 265's, manual hubs, factory cd/cassette player w/amp, husky floor liners, and a trailer hitch). after all that i have only paid $100. junkyards rock!!!!!

I love the wrecking yards! Since I bought my motor and tranny at the wrecking yard I go to they give me great deals now!

934rnr - So are you not selling your rig now?
Thanks

I don't know yet it still has aways to go until it back to the way it was before the accident. I was going to trade it for a 88 4 runner but that fell through so I don't have much of a choice but to keep it for now. I would like to have the body work done and paint it before winter though. I do plan on gathering parts for SFA to put on it.
