Hey Larry,

Great to hear from you! Headed to Colorado in about 30 hours for an adventure. My wife and I would love to visit Montana, maybe next spring? I would love to see your Tercel and Styleline.

Great to hear! My wife and I have always talked about visiting Big Sky country, maybe next spring we’ll make it happen.

Hi Larry, I know it's been a while, but I saw that you recently replied to a post on your thread. What did you ever end up doing about your clutch cable? Did you get an off-the-shelf one from some other type of car, or did you get a custom cable made for you or make one yourself? I need a clutch cable the same length you are running on your tercel for the same heat reasons to keep it reliable. I got one from a Volvo, I believe, but it's just too long. I figured I'd ask if you remember what you ended up doing. Thanks!

Hey Tom, might want to check out this post in my thread - viewtopic.php?p=118059#p118059 - about longer clutch cable options.

Haven't updated the thread, but also picked up the ATP Y-319 and will install it soon, it's a little shorter than the Y-487 I did install and think it'll be the better overall choice.
