custom wooden dash?

the only guy i knew that did that was some guy in Berkely and he had a couple old school Toyota cars where he fabbed up some wooden pieces to repair door panels and dashes.

our Toyota community is a very small one out in the Bay Area. almost everybody knows one another and knows of the cars even more!

yea, its got custom wooden door handle,a sunroof, and a really clean interior.

The person i bought it from said the previous owner had it sitting around in his garage for 15 years and it was received as a gift/payment for something, but i'm not sure exactly where it came from originally.

yea, the reactions to the wooden dash are varied and sometimes hilarious...i love the rear view mirror too, i took off my side mirrors because they were wobbly and i don't miss them at all due to the awesome amount of rear window visibility. :)


i've got an extra 5 panel wink mirror if anyone wants it, it's missing mounting brackets though...free local pickup.
