So I brought her out today, after sitting in my garage for 2 months waiting for a decision of whether its getting fixed or not from insurance, and I took some pictures after washing it.
Do you guys think this is fixable or?
Its causing great heartache just sitting there.

Easy fix.....bit of duct tape and some loctite glue and she'll be good as new

Seriously though...it definately should be fixable.

Good luck

Wow. I should print those off and show the adjusters in canada here.

Toyota Canada says they can find all the parts except for a front bumper.. so anyone got a front bumper around?
Its taking 2 1/2 months and I STILL dont know if insurance is fixing this or not.

You'll find it easier getting the front bar from the USA.

Email James Sloane at Castle Hill Toyota, Sydney, Australia.

They DO send parts overseas, and James is one of the most helpful guys in Toyota parts.......anywhere.

http://www.chtoyota.com.au/

Be sure to give him your Chassis/Frame no.
But you'll see what I mean when you click on the parts link.

But I'm also thinking that one of the UK based parts outfits might be cheaper as well as closer.

Try
www.lexusofsacramento.com They seem helpful, and have a good parts thing on their website, for pricing and ordering.

Id use the opertunaty to

Replace front bar with late unit 97 - 00,

Install LHD headlights from an SC ( Need bulb plugs as well, 9006 )

Install Glass high beams.

Just use a Fender from an SC.

Then paint it..

Hardly a challenge there.
