Grandma's 1985 Toyota Corolla LE

Hi folks -- below are a few photos of what has been my daily driver to school the past few years -- a 1985 Toyota Corolla LE with now 52,000 miles on it.  Grandma bought it new in the fall of 1985 and owned it until she passed in 2014. I can't remember the mileage then, but my guess is that it was in the 30k range.

With the exception of one small rust hole on the front left fender due to a drain blockage, the car is near perfect. I get compliments on this car all the times many as when I drive my 1071 Porsche 911T Targa and 1982 Mercedes 380 SL.

It runs great. I just recharged the A/C and changed two belts. I have never tracked its gas mileage, but I suspect it is quite good.




OK, the steering wheel cover is a bit tacky, but it was used in my 1990 Mustang  convertible when daughter  Lisa  drove it to high school.

  2. That sounds like a fun idea! Imagining a "Dierks Train" where only DB Congress members and his family can ride would definitely be an unforgettable experience. The train could travel to different concert venues or even have exclusive events onboard.

    As for the rest of your message, it seems like there were a few different thoughts mixed together. If you meant to ask something specific or need a comment written, feel free to clarify!
