Wrecked the 80

[fj40z]

I only carried liability on it, I sure wish I had some type of collision on it now though. I took the day off work and drove to a junkyard in Monroe today. I got the fender and inner fender, the piece of the radiator support I needed, got the a/c dryer also and a few other pieces. Talk about a shame though, the 80 I took them off of was a cash for clunkers truck, a real clean 94 that they poured this stuff in the engine to seize it up so it could never be used again then they destroyed it. Damn shame. Probably a good running 1fz destroyed for nothing. The truck showed 211,000 and like I said looked to be pretty clean, had good seats until they pulled a couple of doors. There was some pretty nice parts left, driveshafts, wheels and lots of good trim pieces.

What color was it Steve??

And you're saying the seats are trashed right?

FYI, I would not install a used receiver dryer. Once they are exposed to the atmosphere for a short time, they are no good. They are cheap new and protect very expensive parts.

It is white, and honestly the seats still looked pretty decent although I really didnt go over them with a fine tooth comb. The interior is grey and the carpet still looked halfway decent.

I will take youre advice, he basically gave me the dryer so I took it, but I will definitely just buy a new one.
