Looked pretty good to me, had some debris stuck to the screen next to the pickup opening. Inside the tank looked great which was a relief also.
Very nice considering mileage

I drove it almost 400 miles for a teacher's conference in Salinas. Got to the hotel just before midnight Thursday, and came out Friday morning to find my driver's door like this.
The door was still locked.
Nothing was missing, so I figured out I must have left it open when I was unloading the back seat.
The conference tours were pretty cool, with a visit to Cal-Pacific Airmotive, the premier builder/restorer of P51 Mustangs, and a stop at Henningson Machine Shop, who specialize in restoring antique cars, especially the Pierce Arrow.
Saturday evening I cruised over to Hollister Hills and hung out with the folks at Mud-N-Yer Eye Frolic. Here's the moonrise over my non-muddy rig.

Camped with the fam near Loma Mar, CA. Just good clean fun.
Nice, after seeing yours, I am not as concerned about mine as I was. it's 91 with 147k.

Yeah, it's only the semi-annual conferences I go to in different parts of the state. The locals always seem to find the cool stuff to do in their areas. I don't even know where I'd take anyone if they came to my college.
LOL, The rest of the year, it's just trying to teach our youth how to work on cars.
Set of OEM rotors just arrived... I know what I'll be doing this weekend.
YUK!
Those alternator belts are not routed properly either... they go on the other side of the idler.
Yep just got this 95 LC and didn't even think they were routed wrong until I dug a little deeper on wanting to change the Water Pump out.

lol @ kid bundled up in box labled "kids sleeping"
ha. was a cold morning, he climbed into the back of the LC, threw that bucket out and filled it with towels and blankets, then climbed in there and saying "I made a nest like a Sasquatch"
Got my auxillary tank mounted and plumbed up, still gotta get the wiring to the dash/gauge. I welded in a Y off the filler for both the vent and fill port, mine is a cummins conversion so no need for a fuel pump in tank. Bought a used tank fuel float assembly so it matches stock, and a ford truck valve and switch for the dash.

Took the girls for a walk/ride, they're power wheels has been "adjusted" a little bit, not cruiser related but, it goes pretty good as their combined weight is well over 120 pounds, excuse the crappy iphone quality, it's running on two 18 volt dewalt batteries, motors in the front as well, and the pedal has speed control (sliding rheostat and PWM) :
Edit: yeah I wish it had a 40 series grill, but it was free, so can't complain.

Somewhere near Mojave Rd this weekend.
Awesome Tercel! Want one! I had a bunch of different Subaru wagons and one Brat from the 80's. Would love a Tercel 4wd wagon or Subaru GL 4x4 wagon in nice shape.
Staying late at the powder coat shop coating Bowfin Cruisers racks but just had to stop for just a minute to open this baby up for a peek.
