runs and drives SR5 Corolla 1.8L 3TC motor newer KYB rear shocks, NGK spark plugs, NGK plug wires, cap & rotor, fuel filter, air filter, drive belts. Recent coolant flush. Paint is faded, slight rust, no body damage, car is old and shows signs of it. No radio and drivers window does not roll down because it needs a new crank mechanism that you can get at a junkyard. Would recommend this car to a rebuilder, restorer or someone that just appreciates cars and likes to work on them. Would not recommend to someone who plans to use it as a daily driver because it has some issues that make it uncomfortable. I have used it for a daily driver to everett and burlington from kent, but the car doesnt bother me, I enjoy driving it but dont need it anymore now that I have a company vehicle. Does not come with wheels in picture, comes with 13 inch steel wheels with two newer all season tires on the front and studded tires on the rear, ready for winter and will never need emissions due to its age. It does have new plates and tabs good for the whole year. Would be willing to trade for a decent black canopy to fit a short bed standard cab dodge ram.

If you weren't so far away, I'd leave a note on the nice one right around the corner from my house.

And that's what I'm looking for. I saw one parked in a handicapped spot and thought Leave a note, didn't and now I regret it. I should have never have bought this cursed SHO, I need a tank of a car not something that needs to be babied.

well I found an old rolla sitting at the parking lot at work the other day so I might be putting a note on the window. And then there's the 92 miata my buddy at work might be letting go for under a grand sooo.... we'll see.
