History
I purchased to vehicle in 2006 from a car yard in western Sydney. It was a very good price as they did not really know what they had. I do not know the history of the car prior to me owning it, although I do know that is the last year Toyota produced the model and it has / had some unique features. Like a 5 speed transmission and factory air conditioning.
I spent the first couple of years pulling it apart to make a beach runner, but understood the error of my ways and have been restoring it to original ever since. I feel they are much nicer original, but that is more than likely an age of the owner thing.
