      Washing a car and changing the oil isn't "restoration". Stripping the body for paint and rebuilding the engine is restoration. Guy didn't even replace the blown shocks, which is a basic safety issue.

      I've been a tech/PC nut my whole life, but I didn't get into cars (mostly this era of Toyota up to when they stopped making sports cars for a looong time) until two years ago. Been driving for two decade, but now this stuff just excites me. How you really get into is just to buy a mid-late 80's or 90's great condition car and start to do basic stuff yourself. It's very rewarding and you learn a lot. Just in a few years I went from having a 94' Camry to having a modded 88' Supra and 01' Celica GT-S. It's a wild ride man.

      I bought a 1999 Accord from my sister-in-law for $250 and drove it to 230,000 miles when I determined that it had a rear main seal leak on top of transmission issues.
      I love my Hondas, but the nearest dealership was hours away, and I periodically need some tiny part that is only available through Honda, so I bought a 2004 Camry, which three people hit with large vehicles in 8 months, and insurance bought me a 2005 Camry--twice over.
      My car was salvaged after the first accident, but I fixed it for $200 in parts, plus a winch and a tree.
      Oh boy, that tree seems dead now, trying to straighten out the radiator support could result in a dead tree falling on my car, myself, and the house! :D
      I didn't expect anything when another large vehicle hit the exact same spot, but the other guy's insurance actually paid me more than the first.

I've had no major issues since I've owned it, apart from the usual maintenance. A great car to learn how to work on too if you're into that. Try get one with the F22B1 VTEC engine and the 5 speed manual. Won't win any races but it's got more than enough power to make you smile on the back roads. If you can't tell - I love mine to bits.

    The 87 Camry, very similar to this one, was my first car and survived many harsh winters. Seeing this era of the Camry again was awesome: it was a great car! Mine did have the auto/electric seat belts though which as you alluded to, were super annoying. I got pulled over in it once for "not wearing my seatbelt," but the police officer was mistaken. I showed the officer the autobelt and said "I wish" and he laughed and let me go.

I loved the car so much in its poor condition I decided to restore everything, I mean everything interior to engine bay! Everything new. I love old Camrys.
      Was also thinking about your seat belt. I never did like strapping the waste belt, for the most part everyone liked the electric seat belt, it is kinda annoying 😂😂😂

    I recently bought, about 2 months ago a Peugeot 306 sedan from 1999. The car has 221tkm but it runs still to this day flawlessly. The engine it self sounds like new, steering pump makes some noice while turning, but nothin alarming. It needs a oil change, but because it is at summer cottage, and it's my first car, It currently doesn't get any kilometers as I speak currently. The driver door sounded like bucket of bolts and nuts, I took the door panel off to found some original speaker hardwear, but because the newer ones didn't need them and I don't have any interest to make speaker system back to original. One's I removed the speaker hardwear, the door when was closed sounded good. Not like nuts and bolts. Other than that car doesn't have electric powered windows, what is just a big plus on a french car. Radio unit isn't original, some sort of Livia unit, but it has Bluetooth. I am considering buying&install new speaker system to the car, with a subwoofer into the trunk, not a big subwoofer. Just that there is one, but doesn't take all the space from the trunk. Other than that my Peugeot is pretty much safe and sound, it has Airbags, no flex. And it has a rust free body what is unheard of here at Finland with french cars. And I payed for it 130e. Probably the the whole speaker system will cost well over what I payed for the car, like 150e. Hehe.

      I'm on my third Peugeot 306 2.0 XSi since 2005, although I recently stopped driving it in June due to something stopping the indicators, intermittent wipe function, electric mirrors from working. Probably just a bad connection but I do not know where to look yet. It all sprang back into life after a month but then all stopped again, so one thing is affecting all those issues. Anyway fantastic cars in so many ways, but as for French electrics.....

    You scored a beauty. We had a 91 model from new that ran until about 5 years ago- an old man ran into it and although not much damage, insurance wrote it off. Engine started first go every single time, no leaks or failures- the thing just ran and ran without complaints. Just over 200k. A Toyota salesman in 2010 told me Toyota regretted making these as seldomly did anything go wrong. Your model is the CS-X which was one below the top of the line. Yours has rear disc brakes, a much nicer looking steering wheel, power antenna, velour trim and a few other things like a split compartment center console if I remember correctly. A lot of mechanics said these can cover 500k. Yours is in top condition with 150k. Love your restoration work mate. I was tempted to get one myself and always liked the CS-X. Would like to see more!

    Nice restoration - to be honest, I really like these car restoration videos! I also like older cars more than newer ones as they are more serviceable than older cars.
    P.S. I would have probably replaced the needles on all of the dials, based on how they have bent - I also don't mind the more modern stereo system because older models with AM/FM only (and for a 90's car, possibly cassette) are not very useful any more. I understand that Australia is more reliant on FM and even AM!) however a lot of other countries, including the United Kingdom, are turning off AM transmitters in favor of FM and particularly DAB/Internet.

    That was an amazing model. I saw many go 300 to 400,000 miles. The only problem was the auto transmission cases would wear and you had to source another trans rather than rebuild yours. I saw a wagon version of this 15 years ago in the same silver paint that had well over 400,000 miles. The bottom of the front fenders were so rotted away the fenders flapped in the wind like Dumbos ears. But it still ran perfect. Had a 5spd manual trans and the A/C still worked fine. Japan quality!

    FYI the Camry left the factory with soft family car suspension. You can get an upgrade at Pedders with lower sifter springs and the Pedders VRD variable shocks as a next step handling improvements. Also available is a thicker white line 18mm rear sway bar, I think it is branded as something else now if it is still available or K mac can do a 20mm. And I did manage to get a front strut brace from eBay many moons ago. Not sure if they would still be available. If you want to upgrade the brakes you can get Australian Celica ST185 Front Brakes. They are bigger and a straight bolt on swap but need at least 15inch rims to fit. And for wheels the 15” wheels from a 1999 Celica SX is a bolt on swap and made the car look so much better. Finally you can to a 4-2-1 header and 2inch mandrel bent exhaust. If you want it quite like I did you can fit 2 resonators with a large body straight through muffler.

Car was surprisingly quiet and modern, but man trying to corner hard in that thing felt like you were fighting against the car to do so. At this point I'm super used to coilovers in my Celica and Supra. I put that beefy Whiteline swaybar in my Supra and it along with the FA 500 coilovers completely eliminated the body roll, it's insane.

    • @sebastienbolduc5654
      @sebastienbolduc5654 9 месяцев назад

      Totally agree, but there is still a lot of work that needs to be done. I wouldn't trust the suspension on a car that is thirty years old. It's 100% guarantee that the rubber bushings are all dry rotted. My 2011 Matrix with 118K had that problem. I recently had to change the control arms and links. Just the fact that the rubber bushings lasted more than ten years is impressive. I'm going to change all four strut assemblies as well. If the mileage doesn't kill a car, the age will. So it's a fine balance between the two. What's important is the engine and trans. Everything else can be replaced if it's worth the financial cost.

They just don't make them (nor can they) like this anymore. Also steering wheels with no airbags look amazing.

    I like to think you're more of a cleaning and restoring channel. No matter what you're restoring you just nail the format.
    Love the car vids too btw!

    holy crap! few cars exhudes so much PURE NOSTALGIA as this Camry. Good job on restoring the little nugget, and I hope it gets some many more kilometers of no-frills, practical happiness.

    I was 17 in 2007 and bought a 1988 Toyota Camary for 45 bucks (paid for the title switch to me) The back end had a crazy v shaped body damage from the previous owner hitting a pole I'm guessing really fast lol the brake master cylinder was broken and had to use emergency brake for like a month and the spare tire was floating in water in the trunk. Despite all the problems it ran great and made me a shit ton of memories I ended up destroying the Transmission by accidently knocking it into reverse

    Awesome video mate. I did the exact same "refresh" to a low K (~160,000) 1993 Mazda 323 Astina a couple of years ago and has been my daily driver ever since. Hasn't skipped a beat!

    My dad had an '89, fantastic little car. Comfy front seats even for a really tall driver (I'm 6'4"). Yours probably needs new shocks, which will fix most of the handling issues you mentioned.

    The cars are great little runabouts and cheap as to drive and repair. Parts are super cheap if you need to get some and if you are a bit handy you can do loads of repairs yourself. This was a fun video.

    Edd from Modbury, had a couple of these, great cars, I suggest you change the trans axle fluid, an easy drain and fill till it overflows, Dexron 111. Would like to see some clips on Windows 10 vs 11 and your thoughts on both, I know you're great on Tech. Keep up the good work

    I remember seeing these for the first time during highschool in '87. I thought the styling looked boxy and a bit old fashioned at the time, but I thing the design has aged well. Camrys have always been solid, good quality transportation. But these old ones probably not safe by modern standards.

    I love this video. A man after my own heart as I had a similar project on my hands with a 1995 Toyota Camry, the generation that came after the one in this video. I found mine with very low mileage as well at seventy-three thousand Miles and plan on keeping this car forever. So easy to work on including changing bulbs. On today's cars you need to be a technician and have an entire set of tools to do the simplest repairs. Thanks again
