This forum is for cars that run, or at least are close to running. This isn't for parting out complete cars.

87 FWD Auto, 87 SR5

Post by irowiki »

The prices here are site member deal prices, not what I'd list them for on CL and are OBO.

Will deliver a reasonable distance (six hours / 400 miles) for the cost of the gas to get the tercel there, if my time/schedule allows.

1987 Tercel FWD Auto - 69,000 miles - Brown

Our last Tercel. Paint is probably 95% factory shiny! A few tiny rust bubbles starting and the rear driver quarter panel has a scuff. Inside is clean! Has cargo cover! The AC works!

The previous, original owner took the car to jiffy lube, who forgot to put oil in after the change. Oops. Obtained a "recently rebuilt" motor from an 81 Tercel and swapped it in. Recent head gasket job (whoever rebuilt the motor before we bought it didn't torque the head properly), new radiator, "new" used carb, new starter, new battery, new muffler.

AC converted to R134a and works. New tires on 87-88 SR5 alloys. Recent alignment. New radio.

The rear squeaks a bit when you go over bumps, but I have a complete set of front and rear suspension ready to be installed. Struts, springs, mounts. I bought one of the last readily available pair of FWD rear springs for example. Complete set of brake parts too.

$3,000 - will sell as is for this price and even throw in the suspension and brake sets. For lower price would probably keep the wheels/tires.

The 85 went to a forum member.

Buck went to someone in Durango who's been looking for a good condition T4 for a while!
