yes.. AE86 = 84-87 RWD

AE82 = 84-87 FWD
AE92 = 88-92 FWD

That car looks pretty beat up and in need of bodywork, I would suggest you make sure that the floor is not rotted out before you buy it, get on the ground and grab a flashlight if its night, then look for any bad rust or major holes on the floorboards, if there are big holes then don't bother. It also helps to "push" on the floor with your hands to make sure that the metal is not brittle already and breaks when you push it.
