I bought a Camry that was parked in a field for a year

How was the airflow!?

I also wonder what the evaporator looks like, no cabin filter after all.

Looking good so far.....

She took a sticker! The ride over there brought the blown rear struts to my attention but because they aren't leaking oil they're legal. Getting a new pair from ebay, $40 shipped! Thing rides like a cadillac, loose rear notwithstanding, and has amazing power even on year-old gas. And 93 octane has a benefit in this motor.

I had it on summer tires on steel rims left over from my mom's old car. Came with (presently illegal) studded snows on stock alloys that are in cosmetically rough shape. Swapping the summers to the better looking (matching) alloy rims, an exercise in using the harbor freight tire machine.

Does the HF tire changer work ok? What about balancing?

I have a snap on hand crank balancer for that. Cost 10x the mounter, used!
