Not sure I’ll find one in better shape than this. Although the whole stubborn getting into first and reverse thing is a little scary. On the other hand the ad feels well written and the guy seems to know his stuff. I’m sure it’ll sell before I even get off work today though...

You should leave work early because of an emergency situation. I’m sure your boss will understand. It’s a Tercel wagon.

My last boss: yes
My current boss: I’m gonna wait for a more dire situation

On the other hand I kind of shouldn’t buy it — the Celica isn’t even for sale yet

He seems over-concerned about the gas mileage, considering it’s an ‘85 Tercel.

What’s the deal with the handles on the front seats? Are those the O.S. handles for the rear passengers?

Yes they are OS handles lol

Also, he’s right about the MPGs. I had two of these: one got 27, the other got 30/31 all day. So 20-25 is a little low

But at what cost?

About 18% more annually.

Sure they are — you wouldn’t believe how much money I lit on fire for my ‘83.

Hard 1st and R could be low or wrong erl. Bypassing the vacuum advance and some Carb diaphragms? Yeah. That’ll hurt the mileage a lil bit.

Fact it’s inconveniently located in Tenino might buy you some time.

I wonder if the stubbornness into first and reverse could just be that the linkages were installed incorrectly when the replacement transmission was installed.
