Want's it I does!
So good to work on too*, pretty much the only car I'll volunteer my weekend time to.This is part of the reason I like my old 100 series Land Cruiser. Big greenhouse by virtue of thin pillars, high-ish roof, and a low beltline. Very easy to see out of in all directions.
my handsome boi
Why people want older Toyotas is beyond me, they are pieces of shit compared to these, less space, noisy, ride like shit and they put up with all that just because the allegedly look better, people are dumb.
*No threaded holes in the AC compressor clutch was a dick move.

The graphics are insane these days.Ha, I wasn’t paying attention at all first time around. Second time - clearly a video game!
My aunt and uncle bought an overgrown house in SLC. It was an old guy who went to a nursing home. They got the cars in the deal. There was a 1983 Chevy Scottsdale 10 4x4 short box with 23k miles. In the garage, buried in crap, was an 84 Corvette with 50k.
Their both stock and clean, the definition of survivor. I bet the truck alone has got to be worth 30k.

I had a 2003 VW Golf TDi that was an electrical nightmare but got 55mpg. I always said I wished it was crank windows and base as fuck. All I need is cruise, AC and a primitive radio. AM/FM is enough for me.

We tried briefly to run duals on my boys '66 bug. After a couple weeks I swapped it for a single dual progressive.
I sold the duals for more than I paid so it wasn't a total fail.
Hey that's my car, except mine doesn't have cruise control or Android Auto (or even an aux plug). I'm living in the manual age, man.
Cool story bro; my car has one of these old type LCD (LED ?) type clocks, which stopped working a year or two ago. But a month ago I guess it decided to have a second go at life and its been working ever since.
I remember all the times when I was syncronizing the 4 carburetors on the motorcycle. Quite meditative, although the neighbours didn't feel the same. Revving up the engine w/o air filter multiple times to check them might have been quite noisy. Ooops.

Shazbat I feel old now!
I just had to google "Android Auto"...... My wagon is too old to have any of that.
In fact my car was already 9 years old when android was 1st created.
The one bit of tech I wish it did have is heated seats!

$85k isn't an awful price for a 3LT new, but my guess is he was hoping for at least 6 figures on the flip.$5 per mile not including taxes and sale fees if he paid sticker
Last few days I’ve been installing a new carb and hei distributor. Old carb had been on since ‘97 and I had monkeyed with it quite a bit as a teenager. It ran good at sea level and I had taken the choke off as it wasn’t needed in San Diego. Things are different here at 3500 feet and sub freezing temps. The car had a Mallory unilite for years until it wore out. It’s had a points in it for the last ten years. Ran super smooth but was lacking some power it used to have.
Can't tell you how much happier I was after fuel injecting my old car. Futzing with carbs is only fun for so long.
I do like things that are fuel injected. But carbs don’t make me nearly as angry as computers do.
