Just browsing through the auction sites and came across this beauty. A couple of nights work and she'd be as good as new!!

LH headlight still seems OK. May take more than a can of polish to get the rest of it roadworthy.

I forgot to add, I'm 99.9999999 per cent sure it was run over in the sand pit game, I've seen a few before and they all look like that....

Sad thing is someone will probably pay way more than they should because of the added "toyota tax"

To be fair the sun visor in that photo is in pretty good order.
With some work the Tojo would make a pretty good bull-catcher.

It's a prototype of their upcoming abstract model, designed to deter car thieves.

It sold for $4000. Cheap motor and conversion bits I suppose if it wasn't cracked/bent/broken everywhere.

That is a lot of money for that. I haven't been to the auctions in about 10 years but something like that in Melbourne used to go for $300-$400.
