Just realized this car traded hands last year. The seller wanted around $300.00 I traded emails and got some pictures, but was too late to arrange for money exchanging hands and picking up the car. Here are the pictures the last owner sent me.

The current seller wants $700 and the "the title is at the finance company". Makes me wonder.

Buyer beware.

i always love the two-tone paint jobs. no rust that i can see, which makes the body damage on the driver side that much more of a shame.

We're high desert here, local cars don't turn up for sale often, but when they do, they tend to be minimal to no rust :) I think the car would be a good score for someone willing to save it. Factory alloys!

Yeah- esp if $700 is going to pay off the loan!
if it aint there, there's a good chance it won't break!

"can't get the head off"? what did he think, it just lifts off?

also, he expects someone to give him $700 in cash, and he will mail the title later? Not a good way to sell a car, sounds like someone that has no business owning a Tercel. Like someone is going to turn over $700 in cash to a total stranger in the hopes he will actually pay off a small loan on a 30 year old Tercel, that he can not afford to pay off now. Why would anyone do that?
