not quite a yaris, almost

so a lil backstory first

wife always wanted an XB, earlier this year i found and lost the deal on several...but i was looking for clean interior first, idealy something cheep with major mechanical needed

happened across an 08 xb2 for 600, and while waiting or the owner to have time for me to come get it...an 06 xb1 deal was struck but it was going to be months before snow melt would allow pickup

so lets start with the xb2
guy was parting it out as he had bought another 08 that had been hit but had 50k miles on it..cant say i blame him, this ones got 210k on the clock, and had some issues, specificaly clock spring both o2's a rear brake caliper and hub as well as that stupid TPMS setup that i still havnt fixed

used the yaris to track down and bring home EVERY part he had removed ie both front and rear bumpers, hatch, fender and some misc interior

now i say almost a yaris cause so much of it is compatible, but its more about the xb1

drove up 3hours in the yaris, looked at it paid for it drove another hour north to a friends place to pickup his truck and MY DOLLEY then turned n burned back to pick it up, wife drove home in the yaris
