Bad form to list a 1980 2wd for sale here? SOLD

Post by jbwillett »

I have a 1980 Tercel SR5 2wd for sale.
Needs engine but decent body.
169,820 mi
A/C, 5 speed manual, CA emissions on rebuilt 1AC. #1 cylinder low compression and carb needs bushings. Have a parts carb.
Trans good, 'new' tires(2008?).
Bought around 2008 for a project I never made time for. I love the body style and was going to upgrade engine and add 4x4(1983 for sale also), but I guess I didn't want it bad enough because both cars just sat for years.
I have more pictures with some small body rust, etc.
I really hope someone wants this car, it's sweet.

SOLD SOLD SOLD

I'm in Missoula, MT. I see no evidence of accidents. What I would call minimal rust. Car was professionally painted by original owner at some point. One chipped bondo spot on the roof that's visible.

I love those first gen hatchbacks. So tiny and minimal, and a cool quirky style. Imagine putting a louver on that back window, like the old Firebirds used to have. That would be siiiiick.

I don't think anyone here will have a problem with posting your ad here. There have been quite a few members here with first gen's over the years.

With that amount of rust, I think $450 is a good price.

that first gen Tercel shares a lot in common with the Tecel4wd, engine/trans and drive train.

you are welcome here, many on this forum are vintage toyota fans anyway.

looks like a decent buy. hopefully you will find a happy buyer.

Wow! Does it run/drive at all or does it need towed?

It ran but smoked pretty bad when I parked it years ago. I'm pretty sure I just sold it to a guy in Atlanta. I just need to recieve the $$$.
