1985 SR5 in Flagstaff AZ

Post by mmmbeer »

Hi all,

Great forum here, it's been super helpful already. I just picked up a seamist green 1985 SR5 wagon with 166k miles. The body is mostly straight and interior is in great shape. It was driven for years by a professor here at Northern AZ University. It had been rear-ended and lost the rear bumper (please PM me if you have one for sale). Other than that, it runs and drives great. Will be excellent for our snowy winters here (no one thinks of snow when they think AZ, but we average 100 inches a year).

Cheers,
Tom

Cool car! I like the colors, and am totally jealous of yours of your wheels. :(

Here are some more pics of the interior and the spreadsheet of repairs based on the past receipts (prior owner was good about keeping all that stuff). I really like the blue plaid and green exterior. My 4 year old son calls this my "new fast car" and always wants to go for rides in it. I guess compared to our other, a 96 4Runner, the Terc definitely does feel racier :) It needs some new tires, not sure if I want to keep the rims or go to 14s. Seems 14s with tires often end up being cheaper on Craigslist than just buying new tires.

@irowiki - I moved from central PA to Grants, NM when I was a teenager. Used to play baseball against Farmington, just about all I remember is the Golden Corral though.
