Panel beaters! Prado gurus! Talk to me!
I have a white 2002 prado 90 glx that now has front end damage in Perth. It's written off and previously I was traveling/living in a combination of it and Oztent gear.
Ok I've had nearly 50 views and no replies.. Perhaps I should get more to the point... Will a 98 prado radiator support panel fit my 2002 prado including the radiator, oil cooler, condenser? What about the bonnet... What other years will fit straight on?
I have found a few cheapie witch have good front ends in the eastern states and are considering buying one and trucking it over, as I've found a mobile/backyard panelbeater willing to do the work for around $48 ph.
My first question is. Which models are compatable with mine. I need to cut out the radiator support panel, rhs fender, headlights, bonnet, and may need a few other bits, radiator, air cleaner housing, oil cooler, condenser.
I don't want to buy another vehicle and get it here and nothing fits.
I bought this car and did many mods to it based in the great knowledge base that is prado point forum and I'm hope there's a prado body/panel guru or 2 who can help me with this riddle.
Also any tips on getting a drivable wreck trucked from east to west on the cheap.
Or any panel beaters in the west who are keen for a bit of work. The guy I'm dealing with is a nice bloke but seems a little indecisive.
I have plenty of pics of before and after if necessary.
Before everyone says it's not worth fixing, I've heard that plenty of times and I won't know that for sure until I explore all the options with all the info.
Cheers
Troy
