Heys, this is my first post and I would love to share my corolla with everyone on rollaclub :hmm:
A bit of history. My dad brought this car brand new in 1987, he brought the car to woo my mom, at the time they were still dating :D. For $10000 not bad at all, base trim came without stereo and speakers, cloth interior and manually cranked windows. My dad even told when I was a little boy, that one day that the car will be mine, and now as part of destiny the car is mine! I've been the driving the car for two years now, when I first received it, there was 122xxx on the cluster, now its 132xxx. The car has been maintained fairly well, regular oil changes and spark plug replacements have been done.
I also blog about my Corolla Project

The car runs like a champ, feels like a go cart due to light weight and FWD! The Weber DGES produces more much torque and power than the stock carb, and sounds wicked. I primarily use this car on the mountain passes, so handling and response is more important to me than raw power.

Street Cam- Mild Duration
Suspension Work
