Myth of MK3's

[BorHor]

I hear the myth is that all MK3's belong in junk yards.








Myth Conformed!

I some how spoted this when I was watching myth busters when they went to a junk yard to find a random fues box for one fo their projects.

 

[RazoE]

yup, there were atleast 10 MKIII's (only 2 weren't pre-89 though) when I went to the junker last time...

 

[BlackMKIII]

Wow. That's where I'd start digging for parts!

Not.

Myth: Mk3 owners are tight wads.....

CONFIRMED

LMAO @ Ian.

Hit the U-Pull-It in Ft Lauderdale - 4 MKIIIs in there, all pre '89, 3 NA 1 turbo.

We used to have them all the time. Now the last three times I've gone I have'nt seen one.

The upside is that Im learning what other cars have parts that will work with our cars. Makes me feel all Mad Max.

Only blue and red supras show up at junkyards. It's a rare day when white or brown supras go there.

I think this may actually be true...

"You might be a supra owner if you go the junk yard and drive away with a new car"

Now that's funny right there.

They put my 82 on a trailer using a big-ass forklift... that was neat.

 

[Doward]

Yep - I yanked the head from the turbo, and the wiper linkage from the blue one.

I was just down there - the blue one was still almost completely intact.

No spoilers or '89+ tails to be found, though

 

[whudafux]

Lol, what were you doing down here? You were about 10 mins from where I live. If it wasn't so damn hot, I'd go over there.
