I`am a new member all the way from north of Norway. I own a 1986 Toyota Tercel 4WD DX with the name Jack Black. I bought this car back in November for 4 500,- norwegian crowns, around 750$.
I have been driving it a few months now and i love it, especially on the snow. When i`m sitting in it, it feels like home, with the green neon lights on, the christmas three on the dashboard, the smell of the wonderbaum and Creedence Clearwater/ Steppenwolf as high as possible (Thats not that loud, cause all of the speakers are getting major problems at volum 20) But thats okey cause i like listening to the loud engine sound.
At this moment i`m not driving it, because of some insurance problems, and because the heater aren`t working, so i need to order a used heater engine. It worked fine driving a few weeks without the heater, i was just driving with the windows down to get rid of the dew, and i had much clothes on but now we got around -15 c` degrees, and i would love to get the heater back on track again.
Anyways, thats just a small problem compared to the rest. One problem is that i got an oil leak from the engine, so each time i stop, turn right or left it smells like hell in the car. And to be honest, it was way worse when the heater was working. Heat/ Smell of Oil / Strawberry wonderbaum = Not good!
If the car aren`t making it true the winter, im for sure buying a new one, its many T4WD in Norway. Also a few in my city (Mine is the worst unfortunately). And if he makes it, im gooing to do what needs to be done. Remove the rust/ paint it/ etc.
Here are some pictures of Jack
