Not toyota specifically, but Everett Mall parkway between everett and Edmonds has about 8 good junk yards. You may have to hunt around, but I never had any problem finding parts.

Everett mall parkway has 0 wrecking yards.

Highway 99 has a few.....However-

Lynnwood Auto wrecking is closed
Best auto parts does everything
Pull-A-part never has anything in stock
Al's lynnwood Truck parts does domestics
Fluerys does domestics

The best bet for Toyota only parts is Nix99. (http://www.nix99.com) or call 800-782-0682

A buddy was telling me of a yard that has a bunch of truck and runners. The name and number got erased off our board so can't help you more. I'll ask him the next time we talk. I'm on Ft. Lewis. Work at Madigan. PM me your #

They actually do, but you have to know the scavengers who work there. The yotas are stripped before they're put onto the yard.

410 Autowrecking is NOT closed.

Scott went through some tough times with his Bitch wife who was divorcing him, and of course trying to take 1/2 of everything he owned, including the business. She had no place dipping her hand in it, and Scott fought and fought for it.

Thankfully, Scott was able to open back up after a short hiatus, as strong as ever. People thought the same thing when we moved...we got tons of calls saying "I thought you guys were closed!" when we hadn't even closed, not for one day!

Is that the same place that was called All Toyota?
And the owner had a black Toyota that had two of the old style extracabs welded together?

I posted pics of it long ago.

All toyota had to change their name. Toyota actually contacted Scott and sayd "Uh, sorry, can't call it "All Toyota" any more"

Now they are called "410 Auto wrecking, Toyota Specialists"
