    Default So I'm in nagoya, japan... where can i find parts for OLD toyotas

    Any ideas from anyone thats been there before?

    I have a car so proximity to public transport does not matter...

    Also if anyone has any idea where to find 'wrecking yards' etc that would be great.

    thanks

    there'd be quite a collection in the Pacific ocean at present...

    one way to find them is to look up sellers on yahoo auctions
    not sure you can sort by region, but there are not a huge amount of old toyota sellers on there

    There is an Up Garage in Nagoya that is easily accessable via Train.

    another option is to find places that restore old toyotas.. they will have contacts and sources for parts..

    You could try the Toyota museum Speaking of which, if you havn't been already it's not a bad place to go.
    Only took me about 30mins to get there from central Nagoya.
