Just Purchased 1983 Tercel SR5 VIN# JT2AL35W3D0016119
172,000 original miles. Outside cosmetic appearance is about as clean as any of have come across over the past few years.
Manufacturer build date of 12-28-1982
VIN# JT2AL35W3D0016119
This little SR5 does needs one front seat cushion cover repair, needs new floor mats front and back and I would like to replace the gear shifter boot and the 4WD shifter boot.
Any suggestions where I should go to get good floor mats. I cant order OEM as I cant find those anywhere so I need to find used ones or a suggestion for good aftermarket. The interior is the beige/brownish tan combo.

Welcome to the Club!
This car looks just gorgeous!
Location - from where to where? EDIT: I just read your other post ...
Out of curiosity - how much is transcontinental shipping going to cost?

T4WD augury?

Well in regards to freight, I have a bit of an advantage as I work with several shipping companies daily moving heavy equipment across the country for the company I work for, so I got a hefty discount. I chose to ship her back in luxury because of that and am doing so in an enclosed car hauler due to the fact she looks so nice and I want her to get here looking like that. But the standard car hauler quotes I received for an open car hauler to go from NC to WA was between $900 and $1300. I also was searching for hauling just prior to Christmas and New Years so I assume a deal can be found if the shipping window was more normal.
I did see your post about making the shifter boots. Once it gets here I will decided what to do but I did chose to go with customized Lloyd ultimate car mats in black so I think I may go with a black shifter boot and if I do that I have a few new nice black leather TRD boots I think I could affix to the current shifter boot wire frame and install. I also salvaged a 1987 Tercel Wagon rubber shifter boot from a junk yard today. The bottom plate that you bolt down to the floor is a slightly different size but I think I can customize the holes on the rubber boot to work with the current SR5 mounting plate.

Black with a tan interior?

I will see how it looks, I have seen the black accents theme work with tan/ beige interior in the past. Can quickly reverse course on the shift boot if it looks bad.
