i went to visit a toyota only junk yard to get some parts and took the camera with me. this place is awesome. they strip all the parts from the cars and then put them into the ware house where everything is cataloged and boxed. i didnt magange to get any pics of the warehouse but i got some of the yard. see if you can spot the mk2 mr2?

yeah that is kinda sad.. but I look at is as trying to get parts for the cars that are still living. and help "bring them back from the dead" :-)

i wish i had some pics of the warehouse. all the parts are lined up in a row from every toyota. i managed to find a spare gauge cluster with the exact milage of my car ! how cool is that? i also got a temp sensor, and some dash trim parts that im going to paint.
