Ra22 1975 Celica, Restored Body, Full Suspension, Fender Mirrors, New Oem All on 2040-cars
Murfreesboro, Tennessee, United States
RARE.....RARE....RARE...Chance to own this one of a kind 1st Generation Toyota Celica RA22.
Up for sale is my much loved 1975 Toyota Celica. This car is truly one of a kind. It's is the rare 1975 model which has the earlier short nose body style with the larger engine found in the later long body style. Was only produced in the 1975 and what makes it even rarer is the fact is was a factory AC car and was even a Manual Transmission. Car has only 68k original miles. This car has undergone a full body restoration. The body prior to restoration was very mint and has never been in an accident so need to worry about patched panels, rust, or filler. Body has been painted Toyota Super White II. The engine bay, firewall, door mirrors, door sill trim, and rocker moldings have been fully shaved. The body of this car is flawless!!! Spare tire well has also been shaved and frame supports added from rail to rail on the underbody for chassis strengthening. Late model Celica seats have been mounted in the car. Studs were welded into the floor so late model Celica racing seat brackets can be used also if you want to add some old school recaros, etc. Just bolt up and go. There is no engine or transmission. This leaves limitless options for the purchaser to take the completion in any direction they wish. Whether it be a factory inexpensive 20R or a high dollar Corvette LS or Supra 2JZ swap. MAKE IT YOUR OWN!!! Your engine choice could require modifications to the chassis though. Don't expect a bolt up swap. Tunnel / Firewall modifications, welding on mounts to the crossmember, etc could be expected. The stock Heater box / Fan AC Blower and all dash panels, controls, and gauges I do have and will come with the car. They are all in perfect working condition. I also have a new RA21 vent blower panel that attaches to the box and under the dash which has AC controls and two vents. Looks great! Brake lines need to be ran. Fuel lines need to be ran. Wiring installed. Front and rear RA21 Smooth bumpers included. Great condition but they do have a few dings. Other than that the car is complete and assembled for transport. I can put all of the extras inside the car if you wish to ship. Full modification and parts list is as follows: Toyota Super White II Paint Shaved Engine Bay Shaved and coated trunk floor Rear frame rail under brace Shaved door mirrors Shaved rocker moldings New OEM Toyota Fender mirrors ***SUPER RARE*** New OEM Toyota Front Windshield Weatherstrip New OEM Toyota Rear Windshield Weatherstrip New OEM Lower Door Weatherstrip New OEM Upper Door Weatherstrip New OEM Interior Window molding New OEM Quarter Window Weatherstrip New OEM Hood Weatherstrip New OEM Trunk Weatherstrip New OEM Window Clips New OEM Windshield Chrome Trim New OEM Celica Script Side Emblems New OEM Red and White Side Emblems New OEM Hood Latch Cable and Spring New OEM Hood Rest upper and Lower rubbers New OEM Hood, Fender, Trunk hardware New OEM Door Bumpers New OEM Clear Corner Lenses New OEM Headliner New TRD Replica Front Spoiler New Techno Toy Tuning Coil overs New Techno Toy Tuning Camber Plates New Techno Toy Tuning Control Arms New Techno Toy Tuning RCAs New Techno Toy Tuning Tension Rods New Techno Toy Tuning Rear 4 Links New Techno Toy Tuning Panhard / Lateral Bar AE86 Rack and Pinion Conversion New Megan Racing Inner Tie Rods New Megan Racing Outer Tie Rods New OEM Steering Boots New Custom Universal Engine Cradle with Rack Mounts New Custom Aluminum Griffin Radiator Custom Steering Column Conversion for Rack and Pinion New Engine Cradle Hardware OEM 71-72 Chrome Smiley Front and Rear Bumpers New 16x8 +10 Hyper Black Wheels New BFGoodrich KDW 225-45-16 Tires New Wilwood 4 piston Big Brake Kit New Wilwood Reverse Mount Pedal Box New Wilwood Dual Brake Master Cylinders New Wilwood Clutch Master Cylinder ...its possible Im missing a few items also. 2 Totes full of spare parts included. I purchase a parts car a few years ago so spare front and rear parts are all included. The factory rear end in still installed and in perfect condition with a working e-brake but Im including a Ford 8.8 Housing if you wish to set it up for the car with a high horsepower goal. Comes with a Ford Racing Trak Lok, Ford Racing 3.73 Ring and Pinion, and 93 cobra rear brakes. HUGE SAVINGS HERE!!! Original Fuel tank included (cleaned and ready to be reinstalled) All original wiring. EVERYTHING Anything and everything else I have related to the car I haven't listed will be included. If you have been searching for a vintage Toyota dream car this is the one for you. No need to spend months or years tracking down rare or non existing parts and spending thousands upon thousands of dollars. I've done all that hard work and it's all included. ******For those that hesitate because of price, there is way over $20k in this car. This was no Maaco paint job. All dings were removed by hand, no filler. The added in rear roll pan was all hand rolled and welded in. PPG paint. Hard clear in the engine bay so no yellowing will occur due to heat either. Not a corner was cut here. The quality is second to none. The starting bid is set accordingly but you for sure will get more than you pay for and this car will not depreciate like most.****** Serious
bidders only. Full payment is due within seven days of the auction end. Feel free to contact me with any questions regarding the vehicle at sales@the75celica.com or through eBay. |

2014 Toyota Tundra appears with revised styling, same mechanicals
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Toyota has pulled the curtain back on its 2014 Tundra, showing a truck that has gotten its most significant refresh since its launch as a 2007 model. For better or worse, however, the changes that Toyota has made to the fullsize pickup are mostly cosmetic, with the underpinnings of the vehicle staying unchanged.
The most obvious revision for 2014 is to the bluff front fascia of the truck. There's a new, taller squared-off grille decorating the Tundra's nose, along with a revised, three-part front bumper design. The optional black grille-frame strikes us as an acquired taste, to say the least, but other models, like the Limited above, is all clad in chrome. Fenders and wheel wells are more square than in the out-going truck, too. Perhaps most significant is the revised bed design, which Toyota calls "all-new," with new sheet metal on the sides, a revised tailgate and a very subtle integrated spoiler.
Inside, Toyota has given buyers some new seats and a new-look instrument panel. A backup camera (always handy on big trucks) is now standard equipment on all grades, as is Bluetooth connectivity. Blind spot monitoring is a new, optional feature as well. In all, as with the exterior mods, the changes in-cabin are far more evolutionary than revolutionary.
Toyota to end Australian production by 2017
Mon, 10 Feb 2014There is more bad news for the Australian auto industry today, as Toyota has just announced that it will follow General Motors and Ford in shuttering its manufacturing operations on the continent. Production and assembly will cease by the end of 2017, but Toyota will remain in Australia as a sales and distribution company.
"We did everything that we could to transform our business, but the reality is that there are too many factors beyond our control that make it unviable to build cars in Australia," said Toyota Australia President and CEO Max Yasuda.
In an official statement, Yasuda said that the closure would directly affect 2,500 manufacturing employees and an unknown number of corporate workers. However, a report in the Australian newspaper The Age suggests that the jobs of 24,000 workers at Australian auto suppliers could also be in jeopardy. Toyota currently builds its Camry, Camry Hybrid, Aurion sedans in Australia, along with four-cylinder engines, and it plans to begin importing the Camry and Aurion after production stops.
Weekly Recap: Bentley Bentayga leads luxury SUV charge at Frankfurt
Sat, Sep 12 2015The Bentley Bentayga is launching a new era of ultra high-end sport utility vehicles that will see luxury makers vie for the world's richest and most exclusive customers. The Bentayga is Bentley's first SUV, and it will formally debut next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It's loaded with Bentley's best technology and features, led by a 600-horsepower W12 engine. The mission is simple: stop giving up sales to other companies by not having an SUV in its portfolio. "It creates an entirely new category of ultra-luxury SUV, where there are currently few rivals," IHS Automotive analyst Ian Fletcher said in a report. But Bentley and the Bentayga will soon face stiff competition. Archrival Rolls-Royce will produce its own crossover to be built in England, though timing is unclear. Lamborghini has approved plans for a ute that will be assembled in Italy and launch in 2018. Even the sportier British brands are getting into the market. Aston Martin will make a crossover version of the DBX concept shown earlier this year in Geneva, and Jaguar is launching the F-Pace crossover, which will debut in Frankfurt. These new entries will invigorate a segment that's comprised of the Mercedes G63 AMG and the Land Rover Range Rover SV Autobiography, and Bentley is poised to grab a large share of it, Fletcher noted. IHS forecasts Bentayga sales could hit 3,000 units per year in 2017 and 2018, pushing total Bentley sales to more than 10,000 in the next few years. The vehicle will also get plug-in hybrid and diesel variants to widen its reach. The Bentayga is a sales grab, for sure, but Bentley took care to ensure the SUV remained true to the brand. It's laden with the top-shelf wood, leather, and metal, and it comes standard with an expansive panoramic glass roof. It also has intelligent features like electronic night vision and an optional responsive off-road system that can be configured to adapt to eight different settings. It's a different kind of Bentley, but it's a harbinger of things to come for the world's richest luxury makers. Other News & Notes Toyota debuts next-gen Prius Toyota revealed the next-generation of its iconic fuel-sipping hybrid, the 2016 Prius, at an event in Las Vegas. The car promises 10-percent gains in fuel efficiency, though actual figures – and even powertrain specifics – were not revealed. We estimate that could mean about 56 miles per gallon in city driving and 53 on the highway.
