AMAZING '83 DLX 5-Door in San Diego - eBay

[ARCHINSTL]

Check this out - an '83 5-door DLX in San Diego with 19K miles ! ! !
The photos are worth perusing, just to see what a time capsule this car is (and to cause angst among the rest of us)!
It's up for 6 more days and the bid is $811 now. If I lived near SD, I'd put in a bid.
It makes that red 75K mile SR5 in Colorado Springs look thrashed. This is truly amazing - and it's a stick, and a one-owner for all of these years! Check out the way the rear seat cushion flips forward and the seat backs can then fold - or not; I'm jealous! Our cars are so clever - wonder why they didn't have this feature as well?

The 2WD wagons had the same rear seat setup as the hatchbacks. I assume the reason for the different setups is the different rear suspension setups between 2WD and 4WD Tercels. The rear seat on the 4WD wagons leans back further than on the 2WDs, which is why the cargo covers are different.

Building 2 wagons that look exactly the same but which have so much different sheetmetal and trim pieces wasn't exactly the most efficient thing Toyota has ever done.
