Nice! I just picked up a 86 2wd pickup cheap, then a week later an 85 tercel awd wagon shows up on craigslist for 500, missing the rear window but otherwise clean. Kinda wished I'd waited.

Congrats! One of my fav Tercels was the '80's wagon with what looks like an ATM machine on the liftgate. Amazingly competent snow car and the little thing actually handled well. Good luck...

I gave the guy a bucket of nickels and dimes, did not even have to roll the coin Close, $650. It is a POS but it runs great and getting 27-29 around town. Have done the brakes and a couple of misc. things. Need to replace the passenger side axle (torn CV boot) but CV is not making any noise (yet) but should be able to fix that this weekend..
