I inherited this car in 1999 from my father who kept up with it like a swiss watch. It never gave the family any issues, ever.. It was never beat on, had no rust to speak of, and survived two accidents with only minimal damage. (other cars were wrecked) When i got this car it already had 225K miles on it. The interior never wore, the quality of everything mechanical worked, was original, and never needed to be fixed or replaced. Oil changes done every 3k miles my my father, and later by myself. The exterior color was a silver color that never faded, and with a coat of wax shined like it was brand new. The wheel coating chipped off, and the dull alloy wheels looked almost like polished aluminum by the time i got it. When i got the car, first car, i replaced the CAT coupler which was a known issue on these cars for rusting out, figure that needs to be done about once every 60k miles. New rear struts, and front struts, new CVJoints, which also seem to go about every 125K miles, and a new timing belt every 100K miles. Other than these things, it had a bad fuel filter that i replaced as well, but i would call this basic maintenance. At 367K miles the radio decided it only wanted to play AM and only at full volume, so i pulled the fuse, the power antenna had also decided yet again to stop functioning, which i assumed was due to the radio issue, so i lowered it, and used a diskman through the tape deck, which was it's own seperate unit in these cars, and made due with that. At 386K miles the CVJoint started clicking again, it would have been the third one i replaced on the car myself, and probably about the 9th that was done on the car. I sold my 85 Camry LE to a friend who needed a car to go back and forth to school. He still owns it and uses it as a commuter car to go back and forth to work. It has over 500K miles, still on the original Engine, Transmission, and probably about the 19th set of CVJoints. If you find one of these, high mileage, or not, i would pick one up, because even if it needs work, it will last you a real long time.

Forty more words of the same on this 1985 Toyota Camry LE for sure. The only thing I can think of that needs to be done, and maybe this Idea will dawn on Toyota some day too. Is that Toyota should honor the early year Toyota's by making a 1 Year Limited Edition Run on this 1985. Because everyone world wide remembers how these early year Toyota's just ran and ran and ran. That is what made the name of Toyota Motors Famous. Maybe some year in the future, Toyota will Realize this Fact too. Just like the 1965 Ford Mustang Classic. The 1985 Toyota Camry's where the Same Type of a Classic Trend Setter for those years too! - TOYOTA !
