If you want to hear about Toyota's you need to go to a domestic brand car
NGs.

The only thing you will read in this NG are all of the goofy comments from
the lefty loony kooks that have taken it over.

By the way, Jessica, what are you wearing? ;)

Hey, Jess. I'm one of the few who think this NG should actually be for
the discussion of all things Toyota exclusively. Yeah, I have to
occasionally put on my asbestos pajamas because of that.

One guy told me it was like being on the beach and seeing a fat woman in
a bikini. "If you don't like it, don't look" was his attitude. But if
the beach is called Super Model Bay, there shouldn't be any fat chicks
in bikinis.

Ok, so now I sound sexist. Or anti-obese. Or some such politically
correct nonsensical term. <Sigh...> I hope you get my point.

BTW, whatcha drivin' there, Jess?

How's the Corona coming?

Hey, Hachi. Thanks for asking. It's going ok, but I've hit a few snags
along the way. Needed new front brakes (not a surprise). But the car had
sat for loooong periods (11 years altogether) which explains the low
mileage but also has presented some problems. I had to drop the gas tank
to clean out rust/sediment and then coat the inside and reinstall it.
Tires were dry rotted so it now has new rubber meeting the road. The
markers I posted about are, according to the local Toyota dealership's
parts department, supposed to be lamps so I'm either looking at nearly
$35 each for OEM or finding some after market substitutes (probably the
way to go). I'll have to replace the brake hoses (dry rot there also)
and get a driver side seat belt and it SHOULD pass inspection.

I also need a heat/AC blower motor as well as carb and/or timing tweaks.
I'm not discouraged. Any used vehicle is likely to need a few things and
something this old (but, fortunately, this nice) is surely not going to
be an exception. But, hey, it's an old TOYOTA! I did SO miss driving one.
