grey import = personal import, we got WB MA70's and that's it as well.

I believe late Japanese GA70's were WB that one looks to be a Narrow body, it would be a nice starting point for a UK car being rust free is rare there I'd snap it up at that price.

99% sure its a WB, a mate of mine has a 91 narrow body, I've got an 89 narrow body and had a 89 WB before that,

its a tough call with the angle of the pictures.

Just doesn't look as hippy/bulgy as a WB Martin but agreed it's really hard to tell from the camera angle so could go either way!

I normally look at the trim on the bottom of the Rear qtr panel near the Door, You can see a gap in it, in line with the bottom of the door on a narrow body car, This one is hard to call due to the angle of the picture, But I think it was on Uk ebay earlier in the year and was a wide body in those pictures, Still is a very shiney Grey import either way and rare over here as well.

Aftermarket support is non-existant now, not to mention just general maintenence items (cap and rotor for example) are very rare now.

Buy it, swap it...

Poodles - you seem to forget i'm ON a forum that has 1G-GTE owners, none of whom complain of problems with parts availability.

Even if that were the case, it's like saying don't buy 1973 Jensen Interceptor because the company doesn't exist anymore...

Ask the guys on the forum that have them... Toyota no longer has parts for them.

Yes Toyota do have service parts for the 1G, Cap is stupidly expensive Arm is cheap.
