'84 blue SR5 Tercel4wd $1850.00?

Post by Petros »

Hi all,

This is a project Tercel I have almost finished fixing up and I am offering it for sale to the list first. It is an '84 SR5 T4wd, and mechanically it works great. The interior is good with the blue and white "picnic blanket" pattern, and has a working inclinometer. It has the factory roof rack as well. Also has A/C that previous owner says works great. Trans is solid and quiet, 4wd works perfectly. The car has new brakes all the way around (new calipers, rotors, drums, flex hoses, master, etc), a new oil pump, front seal, cam seal, timing belt, connecting rod bearings, recent spark plugs wires and cap, new radiator. It has tires in great condition, stock size, with "alloy look" hub caps on steel 13" wheels.

The body is rust free (with a few minor dents and dings in rear hatch, right rear door and rear left quarter panel). I touched up the paint, but the clear coat has peeled off the roof and hood. Odo shows 342k miles, but it has a recent low miles imported 3ac engine with great compression (155-165 all the way across) with fresh oil and filter, and new anti-freeze too. Good recent battery too. Previous owner claims the clutch is only about 2 years old, he commuted a long way everyday, hence the high mileage, but it did get excellent maintenance (he is a big hot rod buff, lots of fun project cars in his shop).

I also have several different Am/Fm cass stereos, including one with a CD player, that you have your choice of, or if you bring one of your own I will install it for you. I will also give you a set of 4 factory white Tercel wheels with the center hub caps for winter tires, or what ever. For a small fee I also have a set of 14" x 5.5" GTS factory allowy wheels (and lug nuts) I will be happy to sell you with it.

I have to sell it this weekend, I will make a great deal to any list member who will close the transaction this week. I will list in craig's list if on Weds if no one shows interest here. PM me your phone number and I will give you a call. Make me an offer! must sell this week!

We did the deal today, list member Oh Canada was on time...I was still working over the details (set the timing, idle speed, tire pressure, etc.). But long before now he should have made it home with his new daily driver. The car really came out nice, I was kind of thinking it could have sold for $500 more. Done deal now.

At least it stayed in the Tercel4wd.com family, it will be nice to see it from time to time. It sure feels good to save a great car from the wrecking yard, and make a few $ in the process, and still offer up the car at a great price.

I have another one I am driving home from Texas next week, an '84 SR5 with sunroof, hope it makes it home in the heat of summer without problems. It is going to be a long hot drive.
