80 series is basically the newest solid axle, overbuilt Toyota you can buy, thus making it great for wheeling with 8 passengers and A/C they have a reputation for reliability and durability. Downfall to them is they are heavy pigs like all landcruisers and it's a bit underpowered for it's size. I'd think if it's still able to get running without too much $ and nothing is seriously damaged from the accident it would be a perfect candidate for a wheeling rig. if you're parting it out there is still a demand for parts, but IMO you should wheel the piss out of it...or chop it into a convertible or a "ute" (truck). Then again I have no idea what's wrong with this particular rig or what your plans are for it. For good help with cruisers, check out ih8mud.com

Bummer to hear it's going. I'd post on ih8mud classifieds for more hits since it's a LC board. Good luck.
