ENGINE TYPE: 1KZ-TE
CHASSIS: Y-KZH106W
Had an accident and I think it will be written off, so thinking of stripping it down and selling for parts - I know how hard it's been finding them in wreckers so thought this could help a few people out and maybe I can make some money back this way...
But first wanted to check out any buying interest for parts/wrecking, to see if it's worth my while or not?
I only have ability/tools to take off minor things myself, but may be able to store it at a location that can be visited by appointment - BYO everything to help your self to parts.
So any feedback from anyone who has wrecked/sold for parts would be much appreciated.
DAMAGE / CONDITION:
- I rear ended someone so front is mashed, but there seems to be no steering or driving issues - driving seems fine so far, and no leaks (1 week so far, no signs of any issues). Left side pushed in and glovebox doesn't close now - right side less damage.
- Front bumber is gone, front left light is smashed, maybe some salvageable from front right light.
- Engine runs well, but has oil leak from turbo.
- Transmission is fine (auto).
- Reco radiator and cooling system done in Jan-2017
- Aircons work fine
- Tyres still good/ok (at least 3 newish from memory), and all rims ok. Plus spare tyre is ok.
- I think front left well needs new baring or something - (I'm not super knowledgable on that sorry).
- It has a custom fit, one piece towbar (welded on).
- Rear bumper cracked but still on and ok
- Rear lights ok
- Van has some panel damage, scratches, etc - it's not what you call a "beautiful"
- Sunroofs all ok, though front roof is from a later model (from late 90's model I think - the wrecker I got it from lied to me about the year it was from and I wasn't shipping it back to NSW, so it needed some minor custom fitting).
- Seats all good - but front belt worn out (prob not roadworthy), the rest are ok.
- All interior lights work
- Carpet ok.
- Curtains 50/50 - they're all there but plenty of broken hooks
Thoughts? Feedback?
