If we knew where you lived maybe. Toyota was in possession of 1 or 2 left for around $800. It might not be available as my info is about a year old so it might not be in there inventory anymore. try doing a search as there is a toyota rep here that helps everybody out tremendously. If they do not have one shipping is really not an option as people have shipped them before and they show up damaged. I have sold six hatches to people and they have driven over 6 hours to get them. put you location, I know of people on the West coast that have bought really nice hatches for about $100 from yards. On the East coast they go for over $300. GL

besides that its in the wrong section, you can get one from a junkyard for under $100. I found mine (without the spoilers) for $65 with NO RUST WHATSOEVER. Sometimes, its just good to shop around.

Rust free hatches are no longer available in many areas.
West coast is not one of them.

Buy them up now and store them if you can. It will help keep more supras on the road. Most of the cars I buy just need a hatch. I get them and throw a hatch on them and drive them. Please all you out there before the car goes to the crusher get the hatch man. Shipping is probably near impossible but when it comes time to keeping the car on the road all that stops them is a hatch then the hatch you members save will save an entire Supra

almost every junkyard I've been to in the past 2 years that has MkIIs, has AT LEAST one with a rust free hatch. I'll keep your thought in mind whilst my next time searching. They are usually around $50-$80.

I'll check out one of the local places (local to where I'm at currently, which ISN'T Bellevue atm). Last time I was there they had a perfect body, RUNNING black 85 with both spoilers for $500, but I had no money and that was in April. But they had 4-6 other MkIIs with hatches, not sure how good each of them were. Another place out here had about 2-3 MkIIs and about 3-4 Celica hatchbacks (don't know if the celica hatchbacks work or not). I'll see what I can do this week about visiting those two again and see what's out there.

I'm with Shawn on this one. I have YET to see a rust free MKII hatch in the Puget Sound area & "I" am pretty familiar with most of the local yards that will even carry MKII's.

I've only seen 2 - 3 RA Celica's with rust free hatch's, but never a MKII in all my years of junkyarding... And their is ONLY TWO Toyota only yards in the Puget Sound area. I frequent 1 of them & know what they usually have. Shawn works at the other one & MKII hatch's are pretty scarce.
