    1983 would be the last year for a rear-wheel drive Corolla. In 1984, Corolla was restyled and had front-wheel drive, while losing a wagon. However, there was a five-door hatchback in 1984. Corolla Sport models had coupe and three-door hatchback models, while keeping a rear-drive platform until 1987.

    That actress looks familiar. Anyone know who she might be? She reminds me vaguely of Mary Frann, who played “Joanna” (the wife) on “Newhart”.
