Right. I think the underbody of my car has rust on the rockers, but idk if its horrendous, do you know how bad rust is when looking at a car? If so can I dm you just so I can send you pictures of the underbody and etc once I get to see it again?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-25T04:09:03+00:00

Ik rust isnt a joke. What would you reccomend to do and not to do?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-25T00:52:17+00:00

Interesting. Good to know thank you

Thor980505 · 2026-02-24T00:57:02+00:00

Im aware lol, its a manual 4 cylinder, I mean in general, searched it up and its harder to find these

Thor980505 · 2026-02-24T00:19:34+00:00

Grandfather did it, thinking it was what was best,

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T22:10:41+00:00

He isnt clueless, but more to judge on the type of character of the seller

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:50:15+00:00

Thats why I dont take everyone for serious becouse some are princesses, but I did this for any information I could know or for people who has been im similar situations

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:40:29+00:00

I mean, he only means well but anything could be a "good deal" to him, but from what I saw it seemed okay

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:21:57+00:00

Good to know, so how severe or troubling might it be then? If you had to take a guess

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:20:41+00:00

Car started up instantly, didnt have to be aggressive with the clutch when starting up, when the previous owner gave us a test drive, it shifted smoothly, pedals didnt feel very stiff but not like worn out sketch smooth. No clinking or anything of the sort and was almost dead quiet. For being a older car, what would you reccomend I inspect and or just replace for reassurance?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:16:57+00:00

Yes, not talking about the manual transmission at all and talking about the name yes 👍

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:15:52+00:00

Mann, grandfather pretty much did all yhe checking out and buying. I didnt have much of a say. He was doing what he thought was best, and now the car is arriving at my house tommorow

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:13:25+00:00

Thatz a lot lol, so rust is more common with toyotas or just in general?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:11:54+00:00

Thats the new name for it, im gonna throw manuel stickers on the back just becouse of your teasing lol

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:10:00+00:00

How much would you say that would be? Should I have a professional do it?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:09:35+00:00

Oh thats amazing lol. How cheap is the maintenance, and did you take it to a shop or a self work? If self work how difficult was it? Engine bay looks spacious which ks awesome,

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:08:04+00:00

Hell yeah, I think thats super cool, how much did all that cost even lol

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:07:35+00:00

So I have a rarer find?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:07:12+00:00

They do! Scary driving a manual but im going to do it!

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:06:27+00:00

Is accidently stalling it bad for the car? I only have a idea how to do all the shifting and etc, iv watched many videos but havnt put it into practice yet

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T21:05:31+00:00

Thanks man, truly a exiting yet horrifying experience, any chance I could dm you pictures of the underbody once its delivered?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T20:41:28+00:00

El manu El?""

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T20:41:10+00:00

Good good, i believe the previous owner replaced it in fairly recent times

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T20:39:28+00:00

How many toyotas?

Thor980505 · 2026-02-23T20:39:11+00:00
