Faults:

There are many faults due to the previous owners not completely looking after the car; I have recently found that out.

Internal damage to trans (lots of money involved).

Blown head gasket (previous owner had put one in and completely muffed it up, luckily I had help with this one).

Haven't got the engine completely up and running due to the new gasket for e.g. vacuum leak, but found out that it has a very strong engine due to Toyota reliability.

Other simple bits and pieces that are easily fixed and can do them myself; bushes, hoses etc.

Even with these few hiccups, it still starts first time in the morning and still gets me around :)

General Comments:

I love this car, I only wish I had the finances to completely give this car an overhaul. I've seen and heard people who have these cars, and they are in excellent working order.

When I get things fixed up, it will have plenty of power even for an old car.

The interior is in great condition (except for the dash, it's all cracked and sun damaged due to the previous owner).

Why did I buy this car? I love the look, its shape, elegance and reliability, straight body and no rust!!
