It did come with the spoiler! I’ve seen them
On these cars but don’t know if it’s factory?

Thanks and I had tried that but the DS seat was crushed and the one that matched was worn out. It gives it character I think!

Run what you bring! This is the best seat combo I could use so be it!

Oh I must love em to save 2 and make one. I just think they were always well used and almost no one restores them.
The plastic doesn’t age well but the Lil cars still run.

Every Tercel I’ve ever seen in Texas has been road hard and put up wet! I’d call that unloved.

Guess I should do this. Bob is the name , Texas is the place and I enjoy long walks on the beach……ooops sorry wrong message board. Retired, played with cars all my life. Really like VWs and hot rods but have a love for unloved cars! You know the beat down kind the kind no one would fix up. That’s me...

OoooooooWeeeeeeee I’ve done a few heater cores before and the only one that was that hard was a Ford Focus!

I’m trying to get the interior all back together today.

Time to get this car running soon.

Thank Fo the board this has been a big help.

OMG! Did the heater core today, that ain’t for the faint of heart. Done outside,ac and heater box back in , cables hooked, duct in. I’ll close the dash tomorrow.

Beer me!

Front driveshafts are in! Proper fill process done on trans! Front end finally tight and cotter keys in! Rinsed the tank again this am, it’s drying in the sun and I’ll have another look. Read the process on the heater core, crap I should have been more careful. I can be brutal getting the scrap car ...

Fuel tank second rinse reveals merit!
Rinsed out and a gallon of vinegar added.
Give it a few days.

we need a heater core. Sorry, no part number. However, I do have a heater core from a 1985 4WD SR5 wagon that had < 52,000 miles. It has been off vehicle and box-stored since 1995. Located in eastern Pennsylvania. ~ Heater_Core_In_Duct.jpg ~ Nice work with the restore, by the way. :) Cheers. Thanks...

I’m gonna go check the other car body and see if that one is good? I may contact you on that one yet…

Ok after a review of the tape ….. we need a heater core.
Anybody got a part number handy?
Tips tricks?
