1979 Toyota Corolla Dlx Hatchback 3-door 1.6l 2tc 3tc on 2040-cars
Clearfield, Utah, United States
|
I have a 1979 TE51 Liftback with a blown motor that I'm selling.
It is an automatic running on the original factory carb. The transmission shifted nicely. It got 36 MPG consistently before it threw a rod. It was originally factory red, but the owner before me plasti-dipped it. It's peeling off a lot of places. The only rust on the entire car is the bottoms of the front fenders. The rocker panels and wheel arches are absolutely rust free. There is dirt on it in the pictures that makes it look bad. But the body is straight and doesn't appear to have ever been in an accident. The factory AC worked quite well and blew cold. The tires in the picture are NOT included. It will come on a set of aluminum 15" wheels. I will put up a picture of them when I get a chance to snap a pic of them. The interior is brown and in pretty good shape. Dash is cracked. It has a rear windshield wiper. The original jack is very clean as are the tools in the tool set. You can see there is no rust in the spare tire well. I just wish my Celica were this clean! I am going to be taking the exhaust system for my personal Corolla, but this will come with a stainless header. The #3 rod went through the side of the block so the engine WILL need to be replaced. I have some spare motors that we can negotiate for if you want one. I have room to store it for a bit while you figure out shipping, but I cannot store it indefinitely! |

Toyota Prius owners targeted by tire-slashing VA vandal
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Toyota Prius owners aren't bad folks. With a few exceptions, they're just normal people that appreciate the comfortable, high-mileage hybrid. Someone in Arlington, Virginia doesn't see it that way, though, as 14 examples (and one Smart) had at least one tire slashed last Sunday night.
The serial tire-slasher didn't any items from the vehicles, but he or she has left owners with substantial bills and sour dispositions. According to a report from ABC affiliate WJLA, some citizens are considering the matter a hate crime.
Despite the targeting of Toyota hybrids and the acquisition of one fingerprint, police have been unable to make any arrests, as the slasher has targeted vehicles across the county. Take a look at the local news report from WJLA below.
DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
Toyota recalling 615k Sienna models over rollaway risk
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Toyota has announced a recall affecting approximately 615,000 Sienna minivans due to a possible rollaway risk. All of the vehicles in question are from the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 model years.
In an official statement, the automaker states that the problem stems from the vehicle's shift lever assembly. "Because of the potential for damage to the shift lock solenoid installed in involved vehicles, there is a possibility that the shift lever could be moved out of the 'P' position without the driver depressing the brake pedal," Toyota said. Because of this fault, the affected Sienna models could roll away without warning, increasing the risk for a crash.
Owners will be notified via first class mail, and the affected Sienna models can be taken to Toyota dealerships to have the shift lock solenoid replaced with a new one. Have a look below for the automaker's official release.
