1984 tercel SR5 First time owner

Post by UrUnclePee-Air »

Hi everybody! My name is Pierre! Just purchased my first SR5 and took it on a 3000 mile road trip. Car runs pretty well, and I purchased it off somebody who loved it very much. Driving from Colorado to Michigan and back on 140 dollars with my dog was pretty awesome! I'll add pictures to this thread soon. I purchased it with 270k miles and the owner just rebuilt the whole thing! Can't wait to learn more about it reading these forums.

Celiac isn't mine by the way, that's the previous owners baby. This one was special to him too but his HOA made him sell off cars because he has too many. He's a homey now as well.

welcome to the forum!

That is pretty brave to take a 30+ year old car you just bought on a 3000 mile road trip. I have done that, but I always bring my tools, spare parts, and expect to have to fix it along the way.

Looks like it is great condition, you did well. where are you located?
