MINT CONDITION sightings.

First up, a 90 or 91 Camry, Maroon. Realy in showroom condition.
Next was an '85-87 Pickup, nearly as nice as the Camry.
An '87 or so van, the 'conversion' model with the windows, etc. Very nice.
An '89 Tercel AWD wagon. Woman wouldn't sell...
And then, today, a '78 Celica ST. This car was on the lot of the local
dealer the day I bought my '78 Corolla 1200. If only I had had $1200 more.
I've seen this car most of it's 30 year life, however today was the first
time I have seen it for ~8 years. I believe it was the same owner.

It was an older guy. I bet the car hasn't got 60,000 miles on it...
