My family of happy Toyotas *pics*
Hey guys I just got a new camera and I was doing laundry and since I was bored I figured I'd bust out my camera and snap some photos! Enjoy!!
Heres my moms 2001 4Runner Limited. I just did the timing belt/water pump, new NGK plugs and new tires. Its got 110K on the odo.
My 2000 Solara which really needs a bath as you can see. Its not registered yet.

Thanks guys I really appreciate the comments. It makes me happy to be here on CL cuz you guys are the best.
Choas its kinda complicated but legally I cant touch the Solara because it was my dads and he passed away recently and Im the beneficiary the only problem is he had a lot of debt so it might have to go the bank but im not sure to be honest. It should be all figured out before the end of the year. (so im told) Its just a long process i guess. Its been almost 4 years
So for now I just start it up every Sunday and at night I put the ES plates on it and take her out and drive it. Im gonna wash it and put a cover on it. Im just worried about everything dryrotting from sitting. So I change the oil here and there and she runs like new. No signs of sludge or anything.
BadViper thanx, the guages still amazigly work somehow although once in a while ill get a dim spot in the temp guage when its really hot outside. Im pretty sure its heat that kills these things but im not that worried about it. It still runs great.

You have got yourself some quality rides there. Very clean ES and 4Runner. Hope everything works out with the Solara! I hate to see a nice car like that not getting put to good use! 
Oh and whats that other badge on the right side of the ES? It is hard to tell from the pictures.

Wow, I love the pics of your ES. So sexy and clean. After looking at her, it's not so hard to believe she only has 107K miles on the odo. And look at those BEAUTIFUL cluster needles! 
You're right, it is heat that causes them to die. So, as long as you can avoid exposing them to too much of it, they should last you a long time to come......lucky SOB!

Wow thanks guys. I try my best to look after it and I always park the farthest away in a parking lot lol. Shes got a few dings here and there but looks and runs extremely well for how old it is. And since its so cherry ive decided not to go crazy modding it, although id like to put some gen 3 16" chrome rims on it or maybe IS 17s. And ive been lucky w/ the guages too. Hey swifty how do you like the Stage 3 clutch? Im asking cuz when mine goes im considering the Exedy stage 2 and the Fidanza Flywheel but if you like what you have ill check it out.
