Does /o/ ever dream of owning multiple of the same car?
Running or not?
I often dream of having multiple corollas. Some for play. Some for DD. Some for parts. Some for testing weird things. Some to cut in half and drive around. Some to cut into a truck.
Oh the fun that could be had.

I live the dream. It's alright. I got a '95 Accord sedan(autotragic) as a gift from my mom when I was 16, and I bought a '94 Accord wagon with an incredibly rare factory 5spd this last summer.
I plan on selling the sedan, I loved it to death but the wagon has more versatility and thats what I care about right now. And the automatic trans will die eventually and Manuel will live to be an old man.

Good ol' Manuel.
He's a good fella. I hope he stays around for a long time.
I have 2 of the same trucks does that count?
I've had three 240 wagons in my driveway at one time, all under my ownership.
Sold two of them, then bought another earlier this year running and driving for $450. Now just that and my DD which just rolled 250k miles.

Nice. Why did you sell the others?
Does it count as multiples when you build a trailer for your Cherokee from a Comanche bed? Because I'd do that. They match so neatly.

That's actually really nice

I got good offers.
1st was and still is my DD '90 w/ 250k miles
Second, a '91 245 I bought from a friend for $700 who was moving to the other coast. Took the wheels and roof rack rails with fairing off and sold it for $1300 after a year of sitting in the driveway.
-3rd was an '89 wagon project car that the PO pulled the motor from, cleaned it up, had the head rebuilt, new seals and fresh paint. Body was great with only 142k, interior mint. Bought for $500, sold for $1800
4th I spotted on CL. '92 245, asking $800, needed pads and rotors bad, drove well otherwise. Got them down to $450 and drove it 2hrs north to my parents house. Put new pads and rotors on, rebuild front calipers, re-man'd rears, $200 for everything. The car is very straight, but the paint is rough on the hood and roof. Only 197k miles but I'm gonna go all out on this one. Pull motor and trans, clean everything, new seals and full tune up then full paint. I'm going to make it my new DD once its done so I can restore and turbo my '90 DD.
Almost there, just need to square away a few things on the DD before I jump to the '92.
I also bought an '84 roller for $200 and then chopped it up before I bought the '92. Got lots of good parts from it including a lot from a '93 sedan the PO had scrapped after it caught fire.
240's have treated me very well over the past few years since I bought my first one.

Good man. I love when people restore worthy cars.

Thanks m8. They're very easy cars to work on and parts are abundant. All you need is some time, space and a little bit of money.
