Could Mods please move this to the 2nd gen camry pictures thread?

Nice one! I just saw this thread after looking up details for your other thread.

That LE V6 looks really nice. I wouldn't mind having one in that shape. Shiny,white...man, I only could dream something like that in Hawaii, but I guess they still exist! Verrry nice!

How much you got it for? judging from the cluster, it was garage kept!

BTW, the 3SFE engine bay looks pretty clean being it is an island car.

Thanks! You're right, the car was garage kept! I got it for only $1,000 because it does have a knocking noise in the engine and a possibly blown head gasket , but other than that, it runs perfectly fine!!

And the reason that the 4 banger looks so clean is because I was gonna start working on that car before I got the LE. I kept the engine bay really clean and replaced the bumpers, hood, trunk, 2 doors, and the front fenders. It has a lot of problems though. It leaks a lot of engine oil which also caused the front right control arm bushings to fail, and it also leaked power steering fluid until I found a transmission stop leak. The dash was completely burnt too, along with the body not being in the greatest shape. It runs like a champ though considering that it has 165,000+ miles, a lot of those up steep hills and off-road. It has never left me stranded on the side of the road!

Wow. It knocks? 1K is a great deal man. I would buy a car if the body was immaculate shape, but engine was so-so...since engine repair become pennies on end when you need to do body and interior panel replacement because of sun damage. Either way, any car that age no matter the miles usually could use a rebuilt (usually they are sitting in a garage so long). 82K with a knocking engine and BHG? I know the 2VZ-FE sometimes do blow head gaskets (along with the 3VZ), but 82K seems a bit premature...unless it wasn't maintain (seem to see it a bit more with cars that are garaged that are owned with older folks)

I gotta do bushings on my Camry, but it leaks oil and it needs work all around. Still drives and goes places though. Was it leaking fluid on the high pressure line?

haha You're correct actually! I got it from an older couple (owner died ), so I'm assuming that the engine wasn't maintained as good as it should have.

And which high pressure line are you talking about?

The power steering line. Those tend to start going out around 140K+. Hope the rack is fine though.

I think it's ok, the steering feels solid.

Nice 91 V6 I wish I could find one that mint and that cheap here in Toronto

Nice collection. Looks like you're certainly a dedicated Camry owner. The white 91 LE looks very clean and straight
