great! I might just plan on a trip to retrieve it and bring it here.

It would be best to wait a few months so the weather stabilizes, will that be a problem? If you need cash I can send it paypal, and I will trust you to keep the car safe until I can arrange fight and a wait for good weather window to take a 4000 mile, 5-6 day road trip.

This could be fun. The T4wd is fairly popular around here, so likely I can sell it when I return with enough profit to pay for the trip. Which is actually not that costly driving a Tercel.

This looks like a sweet deal/great trip! I'd love to take a T4 rescue trip.

Mattel...when you make it over, bring a set of euro bumpers for me too! I'll be in Oz for Thanksgiving and one of my main goals is to find a set.
