i dunno how much but can i ask why i recently lost my licence , and decided in that time id take the vlt off the road and paint it and get a new turbo.manifold setup etc now i have my licence back , and no vlt so i bought myself a 84 rolla as a runabout car it has non power steer but it is extremely light to steer , id imagine urs wouldnt be too much different. did they have power steer in older models like ours? maybe hit up a wrecker for a price

ah the 84 corolla, I had one of those as a run around. Dont think any of the KE70's came with power steering. I sold it so I could buy my current VLT, which I regret cos I sould hav kept it. It was a pretty good car, reliable, good on petrol. Was a bitch to start on cold mornings though. They are pretty cheap for parts, I would imagine it wouldn't cost anymore than a few hundred installed.

Just tell her to toughen up a bit, or pump up the front tyres Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
