A 1985 or 1986 Toyota Camry.  I wish there were more pictures, but it looks good.

"PRICE REDUCED AGAIN!!! Old Mini-trucks are HOT right now!!!"  Not as hot as the seller thinks they are.  It's a nice example, though.  I had fun driving these when I worked at a Chrysler dealer in the early '80s.

Too bad the Camry isn’t a Liftback.  My sister’s high school boyfriend had a 4-door FWD V6 Skylark with a manual transmission.

I remember the Dodge Ram 50, but not the Plymouth. Interesting.

I had a Ram 50 back in the day.  It had an 8' box.  That was the good.  ;D

Never knew those 455 powered motorhomes (as Oldsmobile Toronado first gen) were FWD ! Thanks for the info.

Wonder what it would take to modernize and clean up the interior in that one at the auction...probably too much.  Be interesting to see what it sells for.  Won't never know now... :(

Yeah, they advertised it as such too.  My oldest still thought it would be the coolest thing ever.  If we weren't away, I'm sure we would've gone for shitsngiggles.
