Tercels owned: 1985 SR5 6spd 4WD Wagon, all original, except for the CD player my son had installed when he bought the car 2 yrs ago. Now that we found him the car of his dreams ( 1991 300ZX ), I'm taking this one over for my primary driver. 137,500 miles, one owner trade-in at the Volvo dealership in Nashville, original owner somewhere in southwest KY. Paid $625, and probably spent $1200 in repairs and new tires. It's been painted on the left side up to the roof, and the hood, and it's all faded and flaking off, but the right side still looks really good. There's only minor surface rust under the lower molding on the left rear window. I'm trying to decide which way to go on the paint....either back the original gold ? or to camo the thing in either woodland or RealTree. Any suggestions ??

Other cars owned: 1997 Pathfinder, and 1980 LUV Mikado 4WD.....anybody know where I can find a dashpad for that ??....1981 Honda Prelude (unfortunately and AT ), 1999 Tahoe</span>

Currently own 1985 Toyota Tercel SR5 wagon with sunroof, 103k miles. Was bought in mint condition with no rust and only 50k miles on it, but 2 harsh Minnesota winters with no garage put an end to that. Needs a carb rebuild, and new valve stem seals. I call it the POWA WAGON for obvious reasons.

Had a 1981 FWD 2 door Tercel in high school back in the early 90's. Great car.



Other cars currently owned:
1992 Toyota 4x4 pickup ext cab, 22RE. 145k miles.
1997 Toyota Corolla, 110k miles. (wife's car)
