	sadly long gone now but this was my basement budget daily driver and weekend toy for 7 years. pulled out of a garden as a "project" for buttons it was complete but tatty and totally standard apart from a webber carb. as they do , it evolved over time but i always kept it restrained on the mod front so it always served both purposes and more importantly never left me stranded..either off road or broken down at the side of the black top.

It's called "$3k in 3 Days to go Four-Wheeling" and is on Motor Trend on Demand. Seemed to cope quite well with what they put it through.

	I always used to like the Toyota Tercel 4WD, rumour was you could bolt the A4GE twin cam engine straight in but I don't think there are any left now, not seen one in years even on here.

	Taken about 5 years ago - I had a 25 mile mile commute to work and was the only one who made it in that day! More recently I had this 90, looked great, very capable but not very reliable!
	Last Edit: Jan 24, 2019 12:28:20 GMT by disasterbus Currently driving a '68 Karmann Ghia as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

	Nearly every year when the tracks close for winter I end up buying a truck. We have many by-ways locally and play sites so its good fun in the colder months.
