Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
I'm looking for nominations for the coolest Tercel 4WD. It can be a member here or elsewhere, just not a 2WD.
Please post pics!

That 4A-G Tercel is awesome, but for looks I think the fight is between HomeSkool and Terkill

My first car was a Tercel, and I'm still driving a Tercel, some people say I need an Intervention.

Re: Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
I agree with SirNik83, with an edge to HomeSkool; of course, I do not recall seeing the door sills, etc., on Terkill's.
The deletion of the rub strips on both cars adds to the sleekness (OK - sleekness by our standards...).
I have a feeling that the (unfortunately) stillborn project of the late RonB would probably have eclipsed everything save one that was put into a big baggie 25 years ago and never opened. This opinion was formed after looking at some others of his projects - talk about sanitary!

Re: Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
I vote for our Texan Turtle because of the cool name, the fact it came so far to be here with us, the fact that it has the ClinoMeter, the factory fugly WHITE Toyota pizza box wheels and that psycho OCD car cleaning Bro and I spiffed it up within hours of getting it:
If I can't vote for my own (sorta mine, I've driven it) I have always liked the yellow one. Plus it's same Gen as mine.

Re: Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
DCN - how did you get the interior so clean?! I've got stains on the seats and carpets (PO had a small kid).
I'm a light blue car kinda guy, but I've always liked HomeSkool's Yellow car.
This is a great thread!

Re: Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
I was wondering the same thing when I was gathering those shots up to post here sdoan, there's almost no wear on the interior, just needs a new shift boot. I think that they just started clean. That car is in very good shape except for the fact that the clearcoat's burned off. Apparently they don't use salt on the roads that much in Texas

Honorable Mention to 4x4wagon for having the most potential.
Give a boy a gun-give a biatch a cell phone-and pretty soon you almost got yourself a police state.

Re: Who Has the Coolest T4WD?
Nice DCN! That is one of the things that got me to pay a bit more for mine than I probably should have. The interior, though not quite that nice, is in terrific condition with no foul smells. Not to call mine a POS, but I don't mind driving one if the inside is like new.
