i went to visit a toyota only junk yard to get some parts and took the camera with me. this place is awesome. they strip all the parts from the cars and then put them into the ware house where everything is cataloged and boxed. i didnt magange to get any pics of the warehouse but i got some of the yard. see if you can spot the mk2 mr2?
