1992 Toyota Tercel with 196,341 miles, car was used as a daily driver. This was a running car until last week, in which it appears to have blown the motor. The front of the engine block has a small hole, leading me to believe a projectile broken engine part created it (highlighted in picture but difficult to see). The transmission, drivetrain and everything else on the car is in good condition, body has little rust for its age. The car was painted green at some point in time. Comes with a Kenwood aftermarket stereo and aftermarket speakers. Tires are in good shape except for the one of the front tires which is balding. Also comes with an unmounted tire with about 40% tread left, a working spare (donut) tire/wheel , and a small jack. The windows and doors are all manual. A new battery was put in this year, but there is some sort of electrical issue going on with the tail lights, causing the battery to slowly drain. If you have any more questions, I will be happy to answer them. This engine might be repairable should it fall into the right hands. Car is sold as is with no returns or guarantees.

TODAY I CHARGED THE BATTERY, DISCONNECTED THE TAIL LIGHTS (SO BATTERY WONT DRAIN), AND STARTED THE VEHICLE! I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE CAR STARTING, CLEARLY SHOWING THE HOLE IN THE ENGINE BLOCK WHILE IT IS RUNNING (it spews out oil)! I have never seen anything like this before, but the car still starts and runs with a hole about the size of two golf-balls in the block. A skilled mechanic can definitely get this car up to snuff. I will have a youtube video link posted ASAP.
