so the same day I went to get the disk brakes I found this 1.8 1980 Toyota corolla with a clean interior all in tact so I decided to get it and clean it and install it a little side job that will make the car more family friendly and put more weight on these rear wheels
Image
what it looked like
Image
then after a good vacuuming
Image
Image
I was not satisfied so I pressure washed the carpet till it was clean from all the years of sitting in that car
Image
went ahead and installed it with all the other lil things I had collected at the junk yard
Image
side pillers and the top roof thingy

Not much going on right now. The Corolla is just waiting to be parked after September. Then I will be trying to scrape money together for the alltrac to get a new motor or rebuild. Still haven't decided lol.
