Maybe you need some hints, Junk Connoisseurs podcast  style.
 

Never came with an iron duke, and Lotus was not involved. 

But where is it on the "V8, rwd, manual" triangle?

And the speedometer wanders around like it's lost.

Y'know, there are some people who prefer the 4AFE head to the 4AGE head for reasons.

 

Myself, i wonder if there's any fluid left in the differential.  It's separate from the trans fluid and the fill/check plug is easily ignored.  Might be easy to get to on a RHD car but it's a pain in a LHD car.

I'm really grateful for that, the first important tip. I recall reading that, either on the Corolla cup discussion here, or on the Corolla cup Facebook page, but I needed a reminder.

I've had an eye on this for over a year, thanks to you and your promotion of the corolla cup. 

I bought it from one of the techs at work.
She offered it to me for a dollar, since she knows that we're currently in a rough patch financially.
 

I was stubborn, stuck to my counteroffer and paid her $300. We're not in that bad of a position, she deserved to get something for it.

Not sure if you're aware, but the Corolla Cup season fizzled out when the first 3 events of the year got rained out.  A couple members of the group, myself included, sold our Corollas.  However, there are several people who still have them.  The Facebook group is in need of a leader to take over and give it some organization again.

Ha, congrats. And sorry we didn’t get much time to chat yesterday. Doing the two-driver thing makes the session fly by. On the plus side, we had fun and I believe we didn’t leave anything at the site. (At one point, I think we had three piles of stuff.)
