MS65 Crown at Wreckers

Hi,
After reading a few articles about changing hubs for older supra's using ms65 crown hubs, I understand they (ms65 crown) are getting harder to find. While I dont own a Supra to do the conversion, I was at the wreckers and decided to look for crowns while I was at it...I found one, and it had a plate on the firewall with "MS65" written on it, so it's a fair bet that it is what it is...I should also mention that while I didn't check for hubs, it still had it's wheels on it so it's a fair bet the hubs are still there also...
Harvey's Auto Wreckers in the Frankston/Langwarrin Area for anyone who's interested...McClelland Drive (I think that's how you spell it) is the road there on...
Just thought I'd let anyone interested know...
Cheers,
Ben

Cool, thanks for that Greg.
Now comes the tricky part. I'm in Adelaide. Is there a willing soul that is prepared to remove the arms, press out the hubs and freight them across to here for a small bribe ?
I guess the reality is no, as it would be a major PITA and probably end up costing too much. The best I can get some for here is $250 for a pair of arms and hubs. Only need the hubs though.
Any idea on what they would charge ?
Here's hoping ??
Cheers

Ring and ask...they took a set of front coils out for me for $30...no way was I getting under that particular car...I know they do export parts so if you contact them you might get a deal..always worth asking..

There are a number of Crowns, but no MS65, located at Wacol and ABC in Brisbane. MS123, MS112, MS85, there was an MS45 and one other one that was earlier again...
