So....

I picked up this old girl a couple days ago,

1984 KE70, 90,000km on the clock with a years rego for $500!

She's pretty tidy but didn't make the 2 hour drive home without breaking down hah.

She hasn't been driven in well over six months because grandma died and the family didn't want to touch her.

 

Basically from what I can gather she just needs a new thermostat and battery at this stage and I need to figure out why shes idling so low despite winding it up so until I figure that out I'm neutral d-dropping from sets of lights haha..

 

SO MUCH LOVE!

 

(And yes, I am female for those of you wondering)

Nice score, only paid $500 too for my ride but you quickly learn thats what they're worth lol

 

Is it a manual or an auto? What issue did you get on the road? my car needed a whole top end rebuild and rebuilt cooling system to drive OK

Nice rig, reminds me of mine before I lost the plot. If your engine is a bit poo then the great thing is you can generally get a good one for less than the price of fixing the one in the car.

It must be quite a smell then.... :D
