    I believe this is the first "pre-Previa" Toyota van I've ever photographed! It is a 1987 cargo van with roughly 166K original miles, purchased for $400 by the original owner; It has an automatic transmission, and despite being a cargo van it has front and rear A/C! The A/C does not work, and the van needs a restoration, but it runs good and passed state inspection; Yes, the rims are from a Honda Accord...

    Note that the van has rear A/C despite being a cargo van, indicating that it was slated for conversion but never got converted; The A/C was not functioning at the time the current owner bought it...

    This little TV came with the van...

    Again, the TV came with the van as did the vacuum that can be seen in some of the pics...

    I would love to turn the red '87 Toyota Van above into this!

    Wouldn’t it be easier to just strip the parts you want?

    The cab is among the parts I want, and if the frame is good then I definitely want the whole the truck. The damage was enough to total the truck, but it was only superficial; I don't think there was any frame damage.

    My frame is actually solid, but it can't hurt to have a stockpile of major structural components for a Tacoma lying around! I want the following...

    • What's left of the interior including the dashboard
    • Rear slider
    • Hood
    • Front right fender
    • Plastic bed trim pieces
    • Entire composite bed (but not the rear fenders)

    Much of the left side of the truck is destroyed and ripped open like a soup can, which is why I want to get a good look at the cab before I make final decision on that; The truck was positioned in such a way that I couldn't see the left side...

    Because people will start swooping in like seagulls from Finding Nemo?
    They might have the entire interior pulled for me by the time I get up there; Ditto the cab if I end up buying it. After sleeping on it I don’t think I want the whole truck because the frame is probably shot and there’s no engine, transmission, or rear diff...

    Yeah, just as spare parts in case something happens; The owner of the salvage yard is selling the property to Sheetz and all the vehicles obviously go bye-bye...

    Once again, two words I never thought I’d be using in the same sentence...

    Cool and Prius! I saw this at the local Toyota dealer awaiting service; The desert/tan paint contrasts well with the black trim in my opinion!

    I saw both this and the Prius above while at the dealer ordering the necessary parts to put cruise control in my truck...

    What we have here is a brand new, just-purchased 2021 Toyota Sienna Hybrid in “Cypress”; Beautiful color! Also, the interior fit and finish seems to be greatly improved over the previous generation!

    @shakerhood

    I just got off the phone with one of the junkyard owners and found out the following...

    • This truck (the thoroughly stripped white 2010 RC 5-lug in this thread for those of you just tuning in) DOES NOT have a title, and even if it did it's a scrap title, which is even worse than a rebuilt/salvage title in PA and virtually impossible to register for road use if I ever wanted to use this truck as a basis for a project.
    • The cab is totally destroyed on the left side, as is the driver's door and all panels on the left side.
    • They seemed rather iffy about removing the dashboard.

    However, I do still want the following parts:

    • Rear slider glass
    • Right door
    • Hood
    • A few bits of plastic interior trim
    • Composite bed insert
    • Curtain airbags
