I’m in my 40’s and worked in an mot center when I was 16 and can’t remember them, when I came across this it looked like a nice opportunity to give it a new lease of life
The corrosion is minimal, I have been treating my self to a few more metal work tools so hopefully I can fabricate all the parts I need as and when I want,
Metro is garaged, i have some retro games consoles I have been working on, set myself a little workshop to work on them… this was just a lucky find, I caught a glimpse of it though the broken door and had a conversation with the owner.. less than two miles from home.. this will just be a get it road legal and enjoy.. I don’t even use the metro because of the miles and I don’t want anything to happen
I love these Tercels. You just don't see them anymore. Not that there were many around even back in the day!
Can't wait to see progress on this. 👍

Looks like an interesting project, Nick. The corrosion looks minimal (for a 40-year old Japanese car!)
I agree.. it’s Better than I thought,, looking forward to getting on with it, I just need to share my time between my two cars
Can't wait to see it done good luck mate
Nice to see you back! Where have you been? Looks an interesting project (sorry the merc isn’t my thing) where has the metro gone?

Should look on dvla to see how many are still registered on road
Tailgate and hinges used to rust from the factory
Would not surprise me
