Yeah that's the one! It might have been black but it had yellow on it for sure. I had a feeling someone else would spot it!

Tercel Spotted on TV

Last night on Dateline NBC's To Catch an ID Thief, a purple and yellow Tercel Wagon could be seen in the background driving by (about 19 minutes into the show). The car was in Benin, Africa. They really are everywhere!

Isuzu Impulse rims

Would 14" rims from an Isuzu Impulse fit on the Terc? They're 4x100 but I'm unsure of the hub center. Anyone know for sure?

Success! an '88 Tercel!

After bombarding Craigslist and Kijiji with Wanted: T4WD, I got a response, an '88 DLX manual transmission, the twin to the Vengabeast! Although the mileage is a little higher than I wanted about 340kms, the owner took good care of it and said he was waiting for someone to come along that would take...

My Tercel Plan Update

I went to see the '85 on the weekend, and it was in fairly good shape for 270,000kms. When I attempted to start it however, there was a noise under the hood. I opened the hood and found that the alternator housing had cracked and the belt came off. When the owner saw this he dropped the price, which...

Yea the inclinometer would be cool to have. I know there are still some SR5's with no rust and low mileage sitting patiently in elderly people's garage's (at least I hope), waiting to be found by committed and caring Tercel lovers. At this point I'm willing to spend a crazy amount of money if I find...

My Tercel Plan

Since I discovered this site in 2004, I've regretted letting my Tercel (the Vengabeast) go. Back when I had it I was foolish and didn't realize how good that car really was. But, not that I'm out of school and actually have some money I'm looking to get another one. I've been looking for the dream T...

Fuel/Distance Questions

Can someone give me a rough estimate of how much it would cost at current fuel prices, to drive an 84 Tercel from Vancouver to Ottawa? Also what would be a reasonable amount of time to make such a drive, how many days would I expect to take? Thanks for the help.
