2007 "Red Yaris" RS Restoration
This thread will be dedicated to a major restoration I will be doing on a 2007 RS 3-door that I recently picked up.
The bad: The car failed inspection for a the following reasons: - Rotted rear subframe where the axle arms attach - rear brakes (both sides) - rear right side e-brake cable - right front axle torn boot (I have a good used axle, but will try to just swap the boots) There are a few other things that need fixing which include: - driver's side door catch is missing (I pulled one from a local junkyard) - driver's seat track is locked in position and will need fixing or replacement. - some bubbling around the rear fender wells where it looks like it was repaired before. The car will get complete bodywork and a full repaint. - missing springbolt on manifold-to-midpipe connection. - back hatch latch button sticking (remove from car, disassemble, clean, degrease, relubricate tumbler, reinstall). The good: - drives perfectly, smooth and no creaks or noises. - immaculate interior! I have never seen a car in such good shape for its age. The seats from this car are going in my 06 turbo Yaris. The ones in my turbo Yaris are in great shape, but these are immaculate. The interior trim pieces are also perfect and I'll be scavanging the center console bezel pieces for my '06 as well. - $1000.00 Canadian purchase price. Pics of the car on date of purchase:
