Hey Dennis,
 
I had a panel beater look at the car yesterday and said the easiest and cheapest way to fix the damage with prefect results is to find a nose cut. 

I went and saw a 87 GZE today which has a slightly damaged nose and a bit of rust. Guy is asking $1000 without seats, motor and gearbox. Slightly tempted to buy it
1. To sell the parts and help others
2. Possibly fix my car with it if the parts are salvageable
3. As a parts car if anything else ever happens. 

I'd prefer to find a mr2 with a good front end or at least a nose cut that is in good shape because I do also need some interior parts.

Really don't know what to do at this point :(

That is pretty pricey for a damaged shell, you should be able yo do better.  Eric recently purchased a non-running 86 AW11 which came with a few spare engines for $1k.

I agree with fredhoon, 1K seems to much. Offer him $500 and I'll buy some bits off it :)

Yeah I don't really want to buy it hey. I am 90% sure it was in the QLD floods because it has rust everywhere! and the parts guy bought it from Brisbane I believe.
 
I really only wanted it for the rear visor with "TOYOTA" across it, the GZE Rear light pods, the power window relay and his center console.
 

Have you looked into eBay?  There are a couple of sellers who regularly part out Adubs.  I have bought from both of them without issue, however shipping costs are a bitch.
 
If you go down that path and are intending to ship some large items post up a group buy as I am keen to split shipping for some items that are unaffordable by themselves.
 

well it a few people on here needing parts for the aw11 so maybe get into talks with people and all could go shares in that aw11! 
 

Hows the repair progress with your adub??
 
If your going to give in, this vulture would like to get its dirty hands on a few bits!

If you are still chasing I have another import available that has a good nose cut and bonnet. you really need to phone me urgently as i have a potential buyer for the whole car. 07-32018866. Terry

BUMP!

Sorry guys I have been MIA for quite sometime, I wish I saw your post Terry I would have bought it right away!

I still have the AW11 and now have the funds to fix it, anything out there?
Dylan(Gorilla industries) could you get your hands on anything and how long would the wait be?

Just posted a for sale add if anyone is still interested in the car or parts :(
