muller Posted August 16, 2006 Report Posted August 16, 2006 I thought i had a picture of my interior, but its the wrong angle, just to make sure were talking about the same thing. ill take some tomorow for me anyway. No idea what you'd be looking for in price for one of them though. I got a BIG junk yard IN my back yard too and its all rolla baby :y: Quote

muller Posted August 16, 2006 Report Posted August 16, 2006 Yeah steering wheel on the right over here. And i can't help you with the webbers or headers. Try having a look in the for sale car parts section. or source them new. Did you used to live in Aus? Quote
Raven Posted August 16, 2006 Report Posted August 16, 2006 Might be an idea to sign up to this website for parts - http://www.toyota3tc.com Quote
