The Toyota Landcruiser Owners Club

[Spawnyman]

Hi all, my name is dan nicholson  and I run a business restoring classic and vintage vehicles in wakefield, West Yorkshire called Priory Vehicle engineers. I have a 1995 5 door land cruiser in for body repairs for a regular customer who has other older vehicles which I maintain for him and I am amazed that I cannot get new front wings for a vehicle only 20 years old.It may be possible that I can get small batches of good quality finish fibreglass wings made for this vehicle model if there are enough people who require them. I have spoken to a local fibreglass specialist who says he can reproduce these wings to a very good standard. i have to repair the wings on the car that is in my workshop as I and my customer have no other choice,however it would be a shame to pass up this chance to get the moulds made. The cost of the wings would be in the region of £350 a pair.i may be able to reduce this cost if I can get enough orders.If anyone is interested please email me. I am an old car and motorcycle enthusiast and know the difficulties of keeping some of these old motors on the road.     Thanks    Dan nicholson

Hi Dan, You don't mention what Model of Land Cruiser it is. Also when you say "new" wings, do you mean brand new from Toyota? if so, have you tried sites such as amayama.com?
if you just need used wings have you tried e-bay, breakeryard.com etc? I am sure you can find the wings from someone breaking for parts.

yeah ive looked for new wings in the usual places and thats why i went to the fibreglass producer cos we cant get new(dealer or spurious) or secondhand wings for this model which is a NDJ80R for the record, sorry for not putting that. also the secondhand ones would probably be in a similar condition as the ones i am having to repair. i am waiting for a reply from Amayama regarding new ones, i'll let you know if they can come up with them and the cost..   thanks dan

You might have a more succesful search if you look for Hdj 80 parts, rather than "N"dj!
Good luck, anyway!
