I just drove 250 miles picking this old girl up, not quite your everyday 4WD Toyota.

it got some issues, mainly because it was hit in the front driver side and the repair wasn't done properly. but it drives and tracks straight as an arrow. if I can get all the kinks worked out this summer, I'll try to bring this sucker to Pismo. 30+ mpg isn't too shabby.

1992 Corolla DX Wagon, 184k miles,
1.6L 4 cyl(4AFE), transverse front engine,
fuel injected,
5-speed manual,
full time 4 wheel drive,
electronic locking center differential,
solid rear axle.
minimal frame rust.

Cool! The rear axle almost looks like a mini-4Runner one. And that center diff lock button is *so* 80s, I love it!

Nice find. Growing up my Mom's friend had one. My MIL had one too and they loved them.

Does the Alltrac stuff take up the slot for a radio?

If that is a 8" rear, time to lock it!

Lol just kidding.
Great find! Those things can be tons of fun!

:D Nice, Keith's likely jealous right now.









:laugh: Heck, aside from the red paint, I'll admit I am. Rally it!

IIRC on those the radio sits up a bit higher next to the clock above the heat-a/c controls.

It would be so awesome to see that thing bombing around the dunes! Great find!

I love all the old all-trac Toyotas. My little bro had a '88 Celica All-Trac with the 3sgte engine. He picked it up for $300 in non-running condition. He doesn't know anything about cars, so he sold it. I wish he wouldn't have though. That was such a cool ugly car.
