Hit a few Self Service lots today looking for Truck parts some of the fun stuff from the Atlanta East Pull A Part Yard The only one I took pictures at because there was nothing to pull, Well one thing but that will come on Monday Garage Art was found.
I guess a 1st gen Caviler Coupe is a Vintage car at this point
A pretty toasty Mullet Mobile This Camaro was picked clean
A FWD Celica, Toyota experts can probably spot the year I can’t
Obligatory Land Yacht
A Circa 1985 Cadillac Fuel Economy Computer I’m sure it nearly hit 20 MPG once
An Early Corolla Penalty Box
I found some pretty outstanding other things I will chonical when I’m drinking less and when more folks are wasting time on here.

They were great little cars. Celicas wer e actually my 1st 2 cars. I have a totally irrational desire to buy one on the cheap & fix it up.

If I could find an 86 Nissan Pulsar NX my 1st car I’d buy it and fix it up. I loved this car.

Those were awesome cars. Did you have the pieces to convert it from coupe to wagon? Always thought that was a cool gimmick.

Mine was the generation before that, the ugly angular one

86-89. The lower front air dam plastic would always fall apart. Held mine together with zip ties. Loved my 87 GTS . $300 off ebay back in the day + $500 JDM engine from a localish parts importer.

I was just thinking of mine. I had an 86 GT, and bought a broken 87 GTS to replace some parts. Ended up fixing the GTS which was a manual. Lots of fun. I have thoughts of finding one, and have fond memories of it happily revving a hair past redline. But, would rather fix up an all- trac, or later All- trac / JDM UK GT4 we didn’t get, but fear for parts availability and turbo lag .

But then it was RWD which us FWD folks wish we had.

That Corolla SR5 liftback/hardtop is a rare bird these days, too bad it is so far gone.
