    Hey guys.

    I'm trying to find a tacoma that is beat to hell. I want the bed and rear end to be in tact but don't care about the front. I plan to cut it in half and make it a trailer.

    I'm not sure if it is more cost effective to just start from scratch or try this.

    I think it would be a fun project and easy since I could just throw a bed rack on it for the tent, a locking roll up tonneau cover to cover all my things, and be pretty set. Maybe a shell if that is where I am aiming.

    What is a normal price for something like this and where should I look?

    Thanks for any help.

    Been searching there and scrap yards around me. I'm hoping maybe somebody on here has some other leads. They pop up around here every now and then.

    If you go to their website there should be a way to figure out which states will sell to the public. AZ will, I just bought mine from the Phoenix location.
    Be very careful about their fees... some of them are pretty bad. I paid $7500 for the truck and after all the fees and taxes it ended coming out to almost $9600.
