Time for more paddock bashing!
Congrats!
Should last another 85 or so years, so you will be stuck with it forever.

Ah, the old version of the Toyota Avalon, correct?

It will definitely run forever. For some odd reason, I love seeing old Japanese cars.

Enjoy!

Hey they're not a bad car Spaz, and not a bad price either (in fact its much cheaper than comparable AU prices).

I'm impressed!

The are a very good thing spastic but they run a 7mge engine make sure the coolant is changed yearly mate and use toyota coolant(the pink stuff) they can blow head gaskets if not looked after. These engines make good power when turboed 7mgte but need a decent metal H/G and decent arp bolts. They run a very strong bottom end and all they need is some decent low comp forgies, you have done well mate congrats
