Re: Charity Rally Tercel across the outback

I've got one that will be just in Rego for the Next Rally. It's in Sydney. It runs well enough, save a strange rattling at about 70, under acceleration. Although it does Idle a bit rough. Offers under $1000

It's a bit of a fiddle to fit it in, but it's the same length, the ends are the same and it works. Just but one in my 1987 SR5 Tercel ...
