Please have feedback before buying, SERIOUS buyers only.  Will ship if buyer sets it up.  Payment must be made in full before I ship though. 

I am only selling due to needing a newer 4 door car.  I am not making money on this (With purchase price and things I've bought for it)  Which I am including.


 1977 celica fastback, copper brown, 5 speed, 96k original miles with window Louvers.

This is an original ARIZONA CAR but I bought this from a gentleman in Wisconsin who kept it in a temp controlled storage unit during the salty winters (He owned it for only 3 years). I drove over 600 miles there and 600 miles back (In the car). Did just fine. I looked for over 3 years before I found one I wanted....Now I realize I just need something newer. After several car shows I have to say goodbye.

The car is mostly all original except for paint.

I always get a compliment no matter where I go. Also lots of attention at the car shows.

The car has had the following done to it (and more that I can't remember).

Newer tires
New fuel pump
New rear wheel bearings
carb redone
new valve cover seals
new carpet (Not installed)
New window seals

and much more

I am including a BRAND NEW weber 32/36 carb (Paid 300$ for it alone) Still in brand new redline box.

The car will need the following:

Drivers seat recovered (Passenger seat is nice)
Center console bezel is cracked
and A pillars are a little crackly
Small spot on door interior
The front brakes are squeaking so they will need done soon (just normal maintenance)

The dash and rest of the interior is nice.  It's an import from 1977, it's in good shape for being this age and probably one of the best you'll find.

Exterior is rust free, underneath is rust free and you're welcome to check it out. No leaks of any kind from what I've seen. Which is almost unheard of with any old car. Has a fresher oil change (About a month old).

The paint could use something done to it, the guy who did it before did a decent job BUT looks like there was dirt in the primer and he just painted over and left lots of small bumps/ruff areas on the roof and drivers side.

Under the hood is stock other than I took a day to polish the stock valve cover. Will look really good once the weber is installed.


Asking 7,900 FIRM cash, cash is king and I'm not dying to sell it. I may die IF I sell it though..... These cars are only going up in value.

2014 Toyota Corolla to bow before LA

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

We've sort of been wondering when Toyota would finally debut the next-generation Corolla sedan, especially since the current car is getting very, very long in the tooth. We got a glimpse of the new compact's design at this year's Detroit Auto Show in the form of the Furia concept seen above, but we figured we'd see the production car by now.
According to Edmunds, Toyota will be unveiling the new Corolla sometime soon, and it won't wait until the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. Officials from the Japanese automaker did not state a specific location or date for the new car's unveiling, but said that the 2014 Corolla is expected to be on sale before the LA expo later this year and that it will be revealed "somewhere in the US."
Toyota did not divulge any details about the new Corolla, and we're willing to bet that the aggressive lines of the Furia concept will be dulled down quite a bit for the production model. Still, news that the new car is coming sooner rather than later is indeed a good thing.

Watch a Toyota Highlander ram a house, twice

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Toyota has had plenty of problems in recent years due to claims of unintended acceleration, and now here's a video that actually catches such a claim on video. The driver of this 2010-2013 Toyota Highlander claims that the crossover's accelerator got stuck causing the vehicle to slam into the house twice, and resulting in damage to the Highlander, the house and two vehicles inside the garage. While we don't know when this accident took place, the video was uploaded to YouTube back in January.
It is impossible to determine what actually happened in this video, but what we do know is that a security camera captures the Highlander slowly pulling into the driveway before it lunges forward slamming into the garage. With the tires squealing and metal crunching, the driver then shifts between reverse and drive a couple times causing even more property damage before spinning out in the street and finally being able to shift into Park. Scroll down to see the video for yourself. Whether unintended acceleration or driver error, this was undoubtedly a harrowing ordeal.

2017 Toyota 86: The car so nice it's been rebadged twice

Wed, Feb 3 2016

When the dust settles and the Scion brand is no more, the car we currently know as the Scion FR-S will be rebadged. Again. If you remember the excitement that surrounded the Toyobaru/Subota rear-drive sports coupes' introduction, you'll recall that Scion's Subaru BRZ twin landed in here as the FR-S. That car, along with the new iA and iM, will get a stay of execution next year when the brand bids adieu. We know it will wear a Toyota badge in dealers from then on, and there's a good chance it will get the 86 badge European models wear. Toyota's version of the car goes by several different names depending on the market. It's only a Scion in North America, while it's sold as the Toyota 86 (in Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America, and South Africa), Toyota GT86 (in Europe and New Zealand again), and Toyota FT86 (in Nicaragua and Jamaica). The 86 part of the name is a nod to the rear-drive AE86 Corollas of the 1980s. That's a history lesson Toyota likely won't have to teach its core demographic. Then again, this car's core demographic probably already bought one. There's also a possibility that this car will get yet another name combination: Toyota FR-S. For the sake of simplicity, let's hope not. View 7 Photos So yes, the rebadged 86 will be re-rebadged back to a Toyota. Functionally this means almost nothing. Buyers who were ordering badge-swap kits from overseas will save some money. Some enthusiast forums might need to change their names. And people visiting from Japan or Europe will feel a little more at home when they see a rear-drive Toyota sports car on the street. Meanwhile, FR-S – a name that may or may not have stood for "front-engine, rear-drive, sport" – will be quickly forgotten. Related Video: Scion Toyota confirmed toyota 86
