Re: Save this one? Get those alloy rims?
too far gone, it is a rust bucket and the windshield looks like it was intentionally busted out.
Now this one might be worth saving:

thought it is a dx, not the SR5. if they have the whole car for sale they will sell it to you, but if it is slated for disassembly they will not likely sell you the whole car. That is usually the policy, though I do not know specifically for this yard.
