how much for the windshield and front turn signal lense, and possiby the tail lights.
$40 for all of the above - you'd have to get the windshield off yourself.

it would a battery, and some front end work such as putting the stabilizer bar back on, and posibly a ball joint.

The carb works, but not well.

it is registered in my name and i can sell it to you. It is insurable.

It was my parts car so I swapped some pieces into my other one and did not install the leftover parts on the parts car. Like the carburator. Its pretty much complete but you'd still need to tow it away.

It's all yours for $100

ctishman, I don't think I'd be able to get much for parting it out...unless you could use the whole thing as a parts car. But with a bit of work I can get it in good running order, and that's what I'll most likely do.

I have seen in a wrecker here that exact car with all good interior and pretty ...

I've seen Corollas just stop running due to clogged fuel filters. Cheap part.

Thats the first thing I replaced when my carb was starting to hesitate. I also unkinked a hose that had to do with the choke assembly. That improved it for a bit, for a day or two. I also put in a different fuel pump ...

My local university is currently working with suspension systems so I'm gonig to give them a call to see if they'd be interested on working ...

No, I just lifted the entire front by the frame. I didn't need to remove anything extra but the wheels i guess. It is tight tho, and awkward at times because its tough to muscle the bolts off at the hard to reach areas, but you can either try from above or benieth the car. I used a little pipe for ...

I'm pretty sure you can get any rack off an 83-86 tercel, and any 83-88 wagon. I just replaced mine the other day and the cost was about $25 plus tax from a wrecker.

I'd never done any wrenching with steering before so removing it from the 86 terc HB at the wrecking yard was my first experience ...

Yeah the carb i could get would be from an 85 hatchback MT, and I cant see any differences b/t it and the wagon 3A when looking at the 85 manual that i downloaded. It has 300k kms tho, which is what mine has, so i wonder if it'd be worth it to try to repair mine.

I'm going to put some serious ...

Not looking into a Weber at all? Or are they allowed up in BC?

Yeah I've read all about the Webber. And I've put some thought into it. But It's tough justifying spending over $300 on a car I bought for a grand. Also, I'm only using the car for winter, in summer I ride a motorbike and the 4runner ...
