Saying bye bye to my Camry

[88 LE]

The time has come to say bye bye to my gen 2 Camry. Its been sitting in the garage collecting dust for about 2 yrs (since I blew the engine).

I had planned to do a 3S-GTE swap, but never had the time or extra money to do it.

So its getting stripped (I already spent a few hours taking stuff apart) and whatever is left is going to a junkyard somewhere.

I've stripped most of the interior parts and whatever mods I installed on the car.


All parts are up for sale. So if you need something let me know (PM me).

I'll take pictures of all the parts I have stripped so far and post in the buy/sell forum.


P.S. The interior pieces are dark blue.

damn.....I feel so bad for ya. I know you spent so much time with that car, but the silver lining is that it may make way for a Gen3 or 4????

^ It was my first car. I learned how to drive with that car, hell I took my drivers test with it.

As much as I hate to let it go, something has to be done. Its taking up space in the garage and I'll probably never get around to doing the swap I want.

Not sure whats next.

I'll still be here on TN, have been for over 3 yrs. So I'm not going anywhere. Just won't be a Camry owner anymore, but I do have a 95 Corolla in the driveway.

fair enough, getting rid of my 88 tercel was so sad, first car, first stereo install, many lessons learned on that vehicle. Hell that was where I had my first kiss...yes I am a bitch of a guy...lol.

The corolla is still a great car by any standard. I'd offer to look for project cars, but your a little ways away.

Don't worry if you can get to the east coast, you can drive mine

Wow... seems like all the vets are selling their cars or parting them out.

Time for the noobs to step up.

Good luck with everything else.

I hope youll still be around 88LE, your expansive knowledge cant be replaced by any noob!

I say you drive your little buggy from now on.

[white90dx]

Oh man... I want your whole car... I'll 'just' swap in my engine and tranny.

Then your car would be like it was before... only with some better components! hehe...

I know you will stick w/ the Toyota family...

I kow how you feel about letting go your first car. Right now I wanna sell my camry, but it's hard trying to convince myself that I really wanna sel it.

^^Same thing here. I was trying to search for pics of his car.

I'm sorry to hear, 88.
You've been an inspiration to the entire community, not just the gen2 guys.

glad to hear that u're staying here to "skool the unlearned"

First cars work both ways but the shape your car outlook forever.
There Joe who drives everything into the ground and there's Bill with enzyte whos always making bigger and better. Shey splinter off there but there are the two first types of driver/owners. And beside everyone should stay to get those diamond clear headlights.If I get a pair, it will be another reason to continue with the car.
