Gen1 found

I figured it out, the old 85 is on its way to better health now, after 2 years, 2 yota dealers and countless shops i found it at my door monday, it has a ton of new parts on it but they missed the weak fuel pump i guess, the car is spotless and looks nice, it might be added to my camry stable before its over

Does that mean if the owner doesn't ok the pump he'll likely sell it to you (cheap)?

Good job!!!!
