Picked it up yesterday. 1985 Corolla GTS 175xxx miles, 102,420 on the motor. Pretty clean, some rust, but good overall. The interior needs a good deep steam cleaning, but all the stuff works magically! The doors line up perfect, no sag. The sunroof opens and shuts like a rocket. Power Mirrors are fast. Radio works just fine. Gauges light up so you can actually see your speed at night too! Anyways, I plan to dd this one for a bit till it has some horrible failure that I can't fix or pay very little to have fixed. If it continues to do well I may look into having the rust cut out and repaired/ repaint it. Anyways no money will go towards this till my Z is complete.
