I'm gonna see if I can get a look at this one, if anyone is interested? I'm probably interested, too, but don't guess I know until I see it.

Re: 84 Tercel in Tennessee - looks very clean
those pics aren't great but what is shown looks super clean. that's fairly low miles, too. might be worth the price.

Re: 84 Tercel in Tennessee - looks very clean
To anyone interested in this vehicle :
I visited the owner last night. He was very hospitable, and his car was very clean (I just wish I had brought a little more cash along for the ride). I couldn't locate many issues with the vehicle. It was a little sticky between 1st and 2nd, some oil on the engine, and a belt that was pretty chunky. I can't remember if it was the power steering or alt. He recently replaced the valve cover gasket, maybe that cures the slow oil leak? Overall, I'd say he's in the ballpark with his price. The engine had a good sound. It's worth a good look if you're in the area.

Re: 84 Tercel in Tennessee - looks very clean
Looks like the owner added some red front side marker lights on the fenders. I thought about that myself but was leaning more towards smaller amber lights that were mounted horizontally instead.
Peace
