Rear window wiper arm

I am looking for a rear wiper arm assembly for the back door of my Tercel wagon. Anyone have one nearby in the PNW or willing to ship me one? Name your price!

Re: Goldie Unveiled ! ! !

Just got back on here again and found these pictures. Tom, That car looks great. The paint looks surprisingly good for a metallic and it sits right over it's wheels - especially considering the 14" wheels. Great attention to detail - well done! I like the Fact sticker too. And Voldemort - I kne...

Follow up to Burning Man

OK, so my friends and neighbors (and most recent owners of my lovely '83) got back safely from Burning Man with the Tercel dusty but in otherwise good shape. He and his wife went to many scenic sites on the way including Crater Lake, the Redwoods and Napa Wine country. So here are a couple of pictur...

Re: thanks to all who made it to ToyotaFest!

Congratulations to Synth and all of you. And great pics Petros. Those are some fine looking Tercs. I tried (mostly tongue in cheek) to convince Jill we needed to convoy down and enter our 2, but somehow I wasn't taken seriously. Maybe next year. Please post this event when it comes around again beca...

Re: Sorry 'bout that.

Neu, can that explain disappearing posts? I posted at least 3 messages on Sunday (one new topic and one update to an existing topic) and they have all disappeared. Will the disappeared topic return?

Thanks!

Re: T4wd at Burning Man!

Tercel, what Tercel? Oh, in the background. ;-) Good tip on the air intake but afraid he's already out of cellphone range. It's cool that you are using your Tercel the way it was intended! Before we lost contact with him it sounded like my neighbor was very happy with the Tercel experience to the de...

T4wd at Burning Man!

My old car, the beloved 1983 DeLuxe with over 300,000 miles, is transporting my neighbor to Burning Man and back (3000+ miles). My neighbor is planning to carry 3 people, 3 bicycles and 250lbs of water into the Burning Man Metropolis. I went over it and it's in pretty good shape. The thing I most wo...

Re: Rear Axle Bearings and Stuff

Tom, I didn't use a slidehammer on the last 3 I did so you may not need it (but I live in the mold belt, not the rust belt). And the only parts I bought were the bearing (which comes with the inner retainer lock ring) and the seal. If the backing plate doesn't come off the axle housing, the inner ga...

Factory Sunroof Weatherstrip source

The factory sunroof seal (weatherstrip in Toyota lingo) is discontinued. A friend had a new Toyota Supra back in the day and to my memory the sunroof looked the same. So I took a chance and ordered the weatherstrip for a 1984 Celica Supra and it appears identical. Installed it yesterday and could fi...

Re: Need a hub cover for fact alloy wheel

Barto,

Thanks and my apologies for taking so long to get back to you. I could not find postage from Victoria to Bellingham, but the USPS charges me between $3 and $5 for me to ship to you (8 ounce package) so it is probably about the same for you to get it to me.

I will PM you.

Re: Need a hub cover for fact alloy wheel

Barto, That's it! I'm over in Bellingham so I can almost see Victoria on a clear day. I'll see if I can find some shipping info to the states.

Tercel Too Small!

Ack!!! When I bought my first Tercel 4wd 14 years ago I rode my mtn bike to the dealership to make sure it would fit. Since then every mtn bike I've owned would fit on its back inside the car if the seat and front wheel were taken off. It was great for two person two bike roadtrips with everything s...

Re: i have three that run fine that i would like to unload

Hey Xirdneh,

Are you getting rid of all your Tercels? Why? You have an enviable collection of parts and have done a ton of work to them. Thank you again for the rear door it's made a big difference.

Cheers,

Shawn
