As cool as the standard radio, tape and cd player were, I just couldn’t keep limping along with a volume control that was either turned to eleven, or nothing. I had to replace it.

Once again, a previous owners lack of maintenance is something I end up having to fix. This time it was the torrent of oil being poured out of the rocker cover.
It stopped raining. This was a good thing, as it meant I could finally get to Pick A Part and grab some bits for the Corolla.
Before we can get into doing fun things with this car, I needed to undo some neglect and deferred maintenance.
One of the first things that annoyed me was that the car has had a small bump in the LH front corner. Nothing major, but it had pushed the grille, grille panel and headlight out of alignment with the bonnet.
I didn’t leave it long before I got stuck into playing with this thing. I needed to first check what sort of baseline for maintenance we had.
