Kinja'd!!!

On jack stands, drained of oil, some other bits and pieces removed. Not coming back down until about 47 things are replaced. This will take a while. Wish me luck.

Good luck. I’m confident you’ll get it all done . . . eventually.

I left the Shoe up on stands for an entire winter a few years ago. It got a full brake system and suspension refresh (including the dampers being rebuilt by Koni) that year.

We expect at least three posts for every 1 of the 47 items completed. Good luck.

Mine’s been in that state for about 3 weeks now.

That’s about $400 USD - the wheels have to be worth half that, and it might have a few other bits. Transporting it would be killer though.

It’s a route I’m avoiding anyway... I’ve tried the donor-car main-car combo. Didn’t pan out.

CV axel, window regulator, nearly every suspension bushing, a few fuel lines, not sure what yet but something about the oil leak, probably going to redo all the brakes anyway, front shocks, etc.

You’ve got a backyard, right? You need at least 3 parts cars. The neighbors will love it.

If I had a 2 car garage, circumstances would be different.

Good luck space crab!

I thought of you today. I saw a T-100 for the first time since I don’t know when. It was an extended cab 4x4 even.

I bet you have at least a 10 car backyard :)

I thought it was a 1UZ swap, but then I realize it’s a 4wd Tercel.
