Toyota Celica Junk Yard Parts

[rally49]

I visited my local junk yard today for parts for my Celica. There was not single a single celica there. I couldn't even find an alloy wheel there. Pretty pathetic!!

So if any of you guys happen to be at a junk yard, could you keep an eye out for a 86 to 89 toyota celica for me and let me know where the yard is located.

Thank you

Victor - if you have not changed the hubs - I think many 4 hole pattern rims should work - unless you are looking for a specific rim. Many of the rims with that car are from other cars. (Miata, Honda, something like that) Or you can get a steelie at discount tire for like $40.

Also check CL for a donor car - I will keep my eyes out for you.

Yeah the hubs are 4x100 pretty much standard on everything. The junk yard i went to seriously didn't have a single alloy rim at all. I saw one car with alloy wheels on it and it was a crashed up BMW with bent/smashed wheels that wouldn't fit my car anyways.

Thanks for the help and keeping an eye out.

If it's alloy wheels you're looking for, forget the junkyards. I have never really had any luck finding decent wheels in the junkyards. Try craigslist. Pick up some alloy Honda wheels, they're always on there.

Junk yards often turn the rims in for scrap

Makes since after looking at the price of steel and aluminum these days.

Try Black Jack's in Delta, they usually have a pretty good import-econo-sport selection as far as Western CO goes.

I have been meaning to call them but haven't had the chance.

I see that you live in Junction. Im just down the road, well sixty miles anyway. Just trying to get to know everyone. I didn't know there was anyone else on the western slope(other than scott) into rally.

I think the OEM Merkur XR4ti alloys I have sitting out front are 4x100. I have 4 good ones.

And I have 4 15" Mustang 5.0 alloys too- same bolt pattern, different offset.

I am in Steamboat- dont know how far away that is form you & dont know if they will work...

Nope. Merkur is 4X108.
