Right now there is a 205 on ebay for sale in California. To be frank, im not trying to incite a debate on legalities but instead would like to know, who would jump the gun and try to buy this thing?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyota-Celi...c#ht_506wt_1165 Its vin-swapped, the real deal, and supposedly clean as a whistle....Personally i wouldnt but it, but im sure some of you on this site would. -------------------- (\__/)

You can buy a "declared value " insurance. Basically you buy a policy declaring the value of your car. This is how old classic cars are insured where they are one of a kind and can not be valued.
The main problem you will face is smog. Every time u get a smog check the shop will freak out and possible report you to the DMV. I just want the body panels. I would swap out the floor pan and convert to awd. |
