PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE BIDDING!!! Up for auction is a rare find. It is a 1998 Toyota Camry LE with only 26,000 miles on it. Also 1 OWNER . Here's  the deal. The car is located in Hurley, Wisconsin. That is about 350 miles from where I live. I am in Kenosha, Wisconsin. I have to go back up there one more time to winterize the house before winter. We got the car from a relative who passed away. I don't know the history behind the car. The plates were from 2008 so I think it was driven up til then. Here is what I know. They bought the car new and I have the window sticker and owners manual in mint condition. The car has been sitting for awhile. It had 4 flat tires and a dead battery when I went up there in September. A mechanic friend told me to change the oil, add some gas additive and pull the coil wire, then turn the engine over so the oil can get to the top of the engine in case it was sitting a long time.  I did all that and put in a brand new battery. After I put the coil wire back on the car fired right up in about 4 seconds. Purred like a kitten with NO smoke or any noises. I let it idle for about 15 minutes as recommended. I took all 4 tires off and had new valve stems and tires resealed. Put them back on and drove it around for about 20 minutes. Everything works fine. A/C was even cold, but so was the temp outside. I thought I took pics of the wheels and tires but don't see them. The rims  ahve small pitting around the inside by the tires but I haven' tried to clean them off. There is a dent (gash) in the rear driver's quarter panel as shown in pics. I have a friend in the body business and said it would only cost a couple hundred to fix and paint. I changed the air filter and noticed a mice nest in the air cleaner housing. I cleaned it all out but they might have gotten into the car. I only noticed one area by the drivers floorboard that had signs of droppings. You might want to have the car detailed but there is no smell in the interior. I am just being honest on what I know and found. The car was in a garage when we got it and looks like it was kept in one most of it's life. Other than the dent (gash) on the driver's side that I noticed was some road grime on the front end of the car. I didn't have time to try  bug and tar remover but it looks like it will come right off. I think it's from the iron ore on the roads. Like I stated at the beginning I live 350 miles from Hurley. I can't just run up there and show you the car to test drive. The reserve is set below Kelley Blue Book as they don't have any cars with that low of miles. The car is in great shape for it's age. I would like to keep it but it's part of an estate that needs to be settled. PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING!   There will be a $500.00 deposit within 72 hours by Paypal to cover my trip back up there and secure the deal. The final payment will be due in cash at the time of pick-up. If you can't come there and pick it up then you will have to trust me pay for the car up front. Then I will drive back up there and meet with a car hauler of your choice and you will pay them for the hauling of the car. This is the first time I have tried to sell this car. I would like it to be sold before winter as the house will be for sale soon. I have added a link to Photbucket so you may zoom in on te pictures if you need more detail.

As you can see I am having trouble with E-Bay's photo program. Everytime I try and list an item with more than 4 pictures my computer freezes up. I am trying to add a link to Photobucket whick contains all the pics I have of this car. Here's go another try;

Hello everyone. Thanks for interest in this car. It will make a great car for someone. I have been asked by alot of people about the Title and where to pick up the car. I have the Title in MY NAME as of Tuesday  this week. I waited til now so i wouldn't have to insure it in my name. It was still covered under my wifes Great Aunt policy  It has a clean Title with NO LEENS. I was hoping to just transfer the Title to the new owner  but because of the Death law in Wisconsin it required more paperwork so I paid the extra money to have it put in my name with new plates. As far as picking up the car. The car is located in Hurley, Wisconsin. I have the keys and Title with me .I was hoping to drive up there  Friday after work and complete the deal on Saturday morning. I still require a deposit of $
