Driving my barn find AE86 home 1987 Toyota Corolla Oregon to Los Angeles

[@roctobot]

that corolla is a champ! made it all the way with barely any issues

[@kelvinarreola]

Yep I was suprised, drive pretty good also

[@RaduB.]

No sweat eventually! Thanks for taking us along.

[@ryanwalker388]

I am around the 1/2 way point. This reminds me of the trips I used to take to JCCS or toyotafest back when I was really into corollas.

[@kelvinarreola]

How was were you driving from?

[@carlosarellano4]

What a badass little car. Those engines will run forever especially with only 80k!

[@kelvinarreola]

It’s slow and reliable and get good mileage

[@carlosarellano4]

@@kelvinarreola not everyone is seeking speed lol

[@weedletrainer34]

Man you ballin with that overdrive

[@kelvinarreola]

Gotta keep it off, doesn’t know what gear to be in

Se hablar en ingles pero te lo escribo en español para que veas hasta en donde llegan tus videos xd, soy de españa (tenerife) y no te puedes imaginar la envidia que me da ese 86. Aquí los ves pero para comprar uno es casi imposible, con decir que cuestan casi 30k uno buen estado. Me encantan tus videos y espero que todo salga bien con el proyecto, buena suerte y un abrazo :)

[@kelvinarreola]

Thank you for watching! I appreciate the support!

[@tatankahanska120]

My first car straight out of high school was a 87 sr5 corolla same as that one except mine was a manual. Loved that car.

[@kelvinarreola]

Yea I had an 86 gts coupe as my first car so this is kind of a full circle moment

[@Rally_Armaments]

Love the videos! Makes me want to take an ae86 on a road trip with friends!

[@kelvinarreola]

I say do it! Just bring spare parts!

[@madcat4563]

Nice, what a gem.

[@kelvinarreola]

I know this car is too nice for me

[@wateronfirefk]

It’s amazing

[@kelvinarreola]

It’s pretty decent

[@dangusprime]

I drove stick all the way from San Diego to Medford in 1 go in a 8th gen Civic SI, AFTER EATING SHITAKE PORTABELLO CREMINI. I had to stop in Sacramento and take a walk around a park for an hour because it was too much. Drove through Shasta late late late. Good Times, I completely forgot about that... Journey... Hahahaha

[@kelvinarreola]

Yea the 5 is boring through central California, still gotta drive my other car back home

[@yanfx]

hell yeah

[@iownalawnmower4942]

Sick 🤙🏽 Those maxpeedings LOVE to rust

[@kelvinarreola]

We will probably crash it before needing to adjust the ride height

[@qaibcalichannel6561]

Love the 86 coupe.

[@kelvinarreola]

This was my first car actually

[@zacharystrohl5566]

This is just a proven fact if you leave car stock, it will last forever they’ll never break down on you😂

[@angelwrx3255]

Toyota only

[@madcat4563]

I thought that was common knowledge that when modifying a car to get more power, you decrease the lifespan of it.

[@kelvinarreola]

With proper maintenance ofcourse

[@Christosan88]

Oem+ 😎

[@Javierdos501]

Dangg made it through nice

[@kelvinarreola]

I was just as surprised

[@mirchiboyz]

[@kelvinarreola]

Thank you!!

[@kentryanmusic]

mission accomplished

[@kelvinarreola]

Gotta go back for my other car lol

[@sheppardpat47]

Brooo you should keep the 86 coupe as is, maybe just swap to a 4AGE, keep A/C and power steering, these cars are becoming rarer and rarer in good condition

[@kelvinarreola]

Gonna try to keep it as is, TRY lol

[@sheppardpat47]

@@kelvinarreola I mean it's your car mate, do whatever you want to it, but I think swapping it and keeping the A/C and power steering would be cool, if you manage to fix the A/C of course! Mine works in my JDM 86 ;)

[@Kapil-Patel]

🤣 So dang good. Will you guys return with a truck to collect the other corollas or plan to fix and drive them back ?

[@kelvinarreola]

We gonna fly in, fix our cars then do another drift event out there

[@biglink13]

33/37 MPG bruh, i gotta get a efficient beater.

[@Sam-go3mb]

Get a Starlet with a 4E in it, you can crack 40mpg. Maybe not the turbo one, the only desirable one ironically lmao

[@kelvinarreola]

It’s super slow though lol

[@Sam-go3mb]

@@kelvinarreola you see, the trick is to never let the revs drop below 4k from the moment you turn the key. ever, for any reason, whatsoever, no matter what, ever. you gotta act like there's a rev detecting pipe bomb attached to the crank. THEN you'll be putting out the same power as a first gen Prius

[@Nimbus.]

dam bro, it actually made it.

[@kelvinarreola]

Trust me I was suprised lol

[@elusive799]

Drop the next video dingus

[@kelvinarreola]

It’s definitely a filler video lol

[@robertkowalczyk2725]

I this a type of a state that doesn't enforce mandate car inspections?

[@kelvinarreola]

Oregon, only if the car has never been registered/initial registration I believe

[@BuntaKnows]

Barn find me one lol

Gotta start looking in peoples barns
