Red face Another Newbie
Hi there, I just joined yesterday (9/28). Purchased a 1985 Toronado Brougham(?) that is in pretty decent shape considering its 99k miles. I think I posted pictures of it on my photo gallery, but I'm not sure. Hope to fully restore the car eventually. Biggest issue now is the bumper fillers which have been destroyed by the heat/sun of being located here in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. BTW, does anyone know of a better material to replace the fillers than the OEM ones? Thanks.

Welcome to C.O.
Nice looking Toro! Replacement fillers from O.E. maybe hard to find?

Welcome!

Not too many mid 80's Toros around. Unique car.
