Rare 1990 Toyota Camry All Trac Awd 4wd Sedan, Celica, Corolla on 2040-cars
Grass Valley, California, United States
|
I purchased this All Trac for my girlfriend to drive to her work in Tahoe during the snowy months. Unfortunately we had the least amount of precipitation in Tahoe history and the car was used less than 500 miles over the winter. I have owned 40 + German cars and this was my first Japanese car purchase. I've been impressed to say the least. Other than needing a clutch the car has been nothing but reliable. I replaced the clutch with a proper genuine AISIN Toyota clutch. I replaced the belts, distributor shaft seal, put in new Toyota coolant, gave it Mobil 1 5w-40 and it has been nothing but reliable. I also replaced the middle and rear sections of the exhaust system with new bolt in parts.(no hacks or welds) I am moving and its going to be easier to just let this project go. I had plans to repaint it and bring it back to as close to new as possible but I have other projects that come first.
I purchased the car outside of Reno, NV. It still has the Window sticker from Carson City Toyota where it was originally sold new in the glove box. Although somewhat worn the car still has its Toyota of Carson City, NV floor mats in it. The car has been in the Reno/Carson valley area its whole life and is extremely dry with no rust. The paint on the roof has typical Nevada sun damage as well as the hood and trunk. The car does have a few dings and some light damage on the passenger side rear wheel well. The car has an aftermarket sun roof that does not leak. Please take a good look at all of the photos. The burgundy interior is in nice condition. Dash is perfect and has a carpet cover but there are no cracks under the cover. All gauges work. It has a CD player from a Scion which fits perfectly and looks stock. Drivers seat has an area of wear (see photo) Passenger side rear door interior panel is damaged. (see photo). All four power windows / locks work. Overall this is a nice solid car that could be made really nice with little effort. I can't really think of a more reliable AWD sedan for the money. I urge you to check the car out in person before placing a bid on it. This is Ebay. The high bidder owns it. I will answer all questions within 24 hours and take additional photos when requested. Vehicle is currently located in Grass Valley, CA. Please email me with any questions through Ebay. Let me know if you would like additional photos of certain areas. What it needs: A/C system needs to be charged Battery does not appear to be the original size but works just fine Hood has a ding on drivers front corner, few dents and dings Trunk lid does not stay open on its own bumper covers are faded and slightly wavy Shocks appear to be original, drives nice but probably due for replacement Paint is oxidized from sun in areas. I get a small drop of oil on the ground after parking it. Have not looked into it. THE GOOD Clean California title Passes smog with flying colors All gauges/ interior lighting works All exterior lights work (turn signals, tail, headlight, etc) Shifts perfectly. Push button center diff lock comes on and off almost instantly like it should NADA BLUE BOOK VALUE IS LOW $2,869 AVERAGE RETAIL $4,505 HIGH RETAIL $5,568 Thanks for looking and good luck ! (vanity plates do not come with the car, bring your own license plates or tags) *****I require a $500 deposit through Paypal within 24 hours and the rest in cash upon pick up. Money orders and cashiers checks will need 5 days to clear my bank. The car will not leave my possession until my bank says the funds have cleared.***** On Aug-06-14 at 21:29:18 PDT, seller added the following information: I've been asked what the car needs to be driven. Nothing really. I drove it to San Francisco and back recently (3hrs each way) without issue. The car has been mainly sitting for the last 6 months and should be looked over as any car that has not been driven much should be. There is a slight noise on deceleration every once in a while. It is not coming from the driveline. I think it may be an exhaust mount/ hanger. |

Toyota's Lentz says fuel cells are the future, not EVs
Sun, 25 May 2014Toyota is not bullish on EVs. That comes from the company's North American CEO, Jim Lentz, who said the company will focus not on electrification, but on continued hybridization with a long-term focus on hydrogen fuel cells.
Lentz questioned the long-range ability of EVs, saying that Toyota feels "there are better alternatives, such as hybrids and plug-in hybrids, and tomorrow with fuel cells." Lentz spoke about Toyota's focus on hydrogen following Forbes Brainstorm Green conference and barely a week after a battery deal between Tesla and Toyota ended, according to Automotive News.
That deal provided for 2,500 battery packs for the Rav4 EV. While valuable to Toyota, the deal "was never about open-ended volume," Lentz said. "It was time to either continue or stop. My personal feeling was that I would rather invest my dollars in fuel cell development than in another 2,500 EVs."
Toyota asking NHTSA for waiver on 206K vehicles
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Toyota has filed a petition with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asking for a waiver to avoid recalling about 206,271 2012-2014 Camry, Avalon, Corolla, Sienna, Tundra and Tacoma vehicles, some of its most popular models. The affected vehicles contain seat heaters that might not meet government flammability standards. Toyota says in the waiver that "the chance of fire or flame induced by a malfunctioning seat heater is essentially zero," according to The Detroit News. The automaker notes the part makes up less than one percent of the seat's weight.
Initial reports of the problem arose in late January when Toyota issued a stop-sale order for 2013 and 2014 model year versions of those vehicles. The automaker says that there have no been reports of fires or injuries in the affected cars, and the problem was discovered during testing by the South Korean government, according to The Detroit News.
We've reached out to Toyota for comment on this development and are awaiting a reply. We'll update this post if and when we hear back.
Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance
Tue, 18 Nov 2014There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.
