Tinman Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 The ultimate winter beater, 38mpg, rear wheel drive, 5 speed. I've had this car for about 9 months and have had no problems to speak of with it. It does have it's issues but it has been my daily driver up untill now. But I have too many cars in the driveway and one of them has to go. The bad, the speedometer quit working about a month and a half ago at 161k, I suspect the speedo cable is bad. The parking brake doesn't work, once again cable related. A/C does not work, the carb could use a rebuild but drives fine, the valves could use an adjustment, and the rear fenders are pretty rusty. The good, it's very solid underneath, power moonroof works, plenty of tread on the all season tires, great gas mileage, and needs nothing to keep driving. Asking $900 or trade for late 70s early 80s japanese 500-900cc motorcycle in good running condition. Pics will be up later today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinman Posted November 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Her good side http://www.solisearch.net/ims/pic.php?u=302631HmIW&i=240343 Her bad side http://www.solisearch.net/ims/pic.php?u=302631HmIW&i=240344 1.5 liters of fury http://www.solisearch.net/ims/pic.php?u=302631HmIW&i=240345 Also forgot in my first post, the fuel gauge only works from 3/8ths of a tank to empty. Not a big deal as you know when your approaching an empty tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verse Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Also forgot in my first post, the fuel gauge only works from 3/8ths of a tank to empty. Not a big deal as you know when your approaching an empty tank. That's a common problem among Corolla owners. Mine worked like that for a while, but it got so low it was below E and is just stuck there now. I just refill every 260 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

byhi Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 they are about a 35-40ish in the rear and mabye 40 up front? The fronts are very high. I'll see if i can get some pics posted of them on my car. I really love them, but i really need a winter car. I also have 2 30mm spacers and 2 1inch spacers. I use the one inch up front to clear my coilovers and the 30mm on the rear because i accedently pulled out my rear fender's too far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Cool, post, pm, or email the pics when you get a chance. Also the offset should be either cast or stamped somewhere on the backside of a spoke or the rim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
