1983 Toyota Tercel SR5 WAGON 4x4 review from North America
"ONE HELL of a 4x4ing utilityCAR for a low $"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
4wd hand mechnisim was missing a bolt.
Window track is screwed. had to put new fuel filter on it becase it cracked when I was doing donuts in my backyard.
General comments?
Hell of good car. not a SUV not a boat not to small 4 doors great cargo room and a nice car for camping and carring passingers. Very Good on Gas. Speed performence sucks, but I can do donuts when its muddy and not get stuck. The only down side I think of the car is the suspension needs to be raised a little bit for 4x4ing. like a jeep, but bigger and haveing more room.
