86 corolla, rebuilt motor, $1500, (doesn't run) :grin: smine

i guess i missed the part where that made sense? why buy a car that doesn't work.

as ugly as an 86 corolla is, its RWD and has serious potential. IF u can find one, you're probably gonna pay up to $8K for a decent one. from what i'm told theres just some problems with the engine wiring harness, but the body is in perfect condition.

good luck i guess? keep us posted. but for now, i'll take the gst.

pics to see the atrrosity that you bought.

hahaha, i haven't bought it just yet. i'm going to see it this weekend. the good thing about it is, its so ugly i won't waste money on cosmetics for it. i don't think theyd help anyways :laughing: . this way i can focus more on speed. and unlike my ralliart, the corolla has alot of support from the aftermarket. and plenty of JDM goods. i won't put a dime in it until i turbo my ralliart though.
VVVVVVVVVfor those who have never seen an 86 corollaVVVVVVVV

thats the one your getting? thats a pretty nice looking car. but you said consmetics were bad, and that one looks good?

those are the same as the ea86 love those cars.

EXACTLY! AE86,u ever driven one?

thats not the EXaCT one, thats just the body style.

oh, i was going to say, thats a sick car right there.

****, if that was it, i would already be driving it! and spending some time in the toyota forums rather than here. no jk, i love my ralliart. its slow but damn its clean.
that car probably looks more like this, but add twenty years of age

get it and get it going. like to see what you make of it.

well right now its just an idea. i've been spending every spare dime on my ralliart and i'd hate to get pre-occupied with another project. but its such a rare find that i owe it to myself to check it out. and a part of me wants me to fall in love with it and buy it. i guess we'll see.the last car i was wanting to buy was a GSX and took everything i had to not go look at it because i KNEW i would spend my whole bankroll on it if i saw it.

if i don't i'd be more than happy to pass the offer along to anyone in the houston area. its my buddy's sons' car, and i'd hate for it to waste away in a garage

i just bought my project car. would have taken that one too though. but already spent my cash on the gst. oh well, someone will score with it.

there was also a gst for the same price that i really like, its still for sale, but the gsx is long gone
vvvGSTvvv
he actually went down on the price too $6995

Slim, if you do not buy this car I will smack you. Steal your money and buy it for you.

To everyone who doesn't know the potential of this car.

Imagine an 1800 pound rear wheel drive car with 400 HP to the rear wheels.

Now picture a chimp driving it sideways.

Look at all the import magazines and atleast one of them will have an AE86 in it.

the car is really that light! with 400HP you'd be running about 11 woulnd't you????

not so great with the traction and its not stock 400 just my crazy little friends over in Japan like to tune them to that.
