This auction is for a 1982 Toyota Corolla in excellent condition. Has A/C, cruise control, an MP3/CD stereo, is very clean and it runs good! My grandparents bought this car new in 1982 and I am the second, the current, and only other owner of this Corolla. It is virtually impossible to find another Corolla this old in this good of condition! Original paint, 3T-C engine, K&N air filter, original wheels, have the title in my name, it's a great car! Have had people drive up and want to but this car several times. Now, it's not perfect. Was in a minor fender bender recently, so it does need a little body work, mainly on the hood to bring it back to excellent shape. See the photos. Also the passenger door rubs ever so slightly when opening as does the hood when opening, both from the fender bender. There are only two or three pea sized rust spots, which can be easily fixed with a little time, bondo, primer, and an included can of Sherwin Williams automotive paint that was made to exactly match the current paint color on this car. Also the driver door had a couple of dents which have been fixed and the lower panel only has been repainted with the Sherwin Williams paint. It looks great but if you wanted to make it look perfect, which it can, you might need to spend some more time putting on more coats of paint and wet sanding with four thousand grit sandpaper or finer. But it is nice as it is. You will also need a new radiator, this one has a tiny leak, and if you need heat, will need a new heater core also. You can use the A/C to defrost in the winter if your winters are mild, but just keep that in mind for defrosting the windows during the winter time. Emergency break works good, brakes are in good shape, rear Michelin tires have about 75% life left and the front ones are still drivable but it is really time to replace the front tires. Does not leak oil. The stereo is new. Has a new drive train. Has tinted windows. The driver side window tint has a small tear as seen in the photo. The rest of the windows are fine. Window tint is less than a year old. Has a trailer hitch and a working flat four wiring harness. Spare tire is good. Low fuel light bulb on dash is out, but fuel gauge and all gauges work properly. Interior light works but the switch broke so you have to use the key or something to move between off, door, and on. Not a big deal. Am selling this great Corolla because I bought a Tacoma truck for work, do not need two vehicles, and do not want to spend the time and money to fix the radiator and the hood. Also there are a couple of pieces of plastic trim on the front by the headlights that are cracked as seen in the photos. All of the original trim is still on the vehicle and in good shape, except for those couple of pieces. It is a five speed manual transmission. The miles are the original miles. This car has spent most of it's nights in a garage or under a car cover so that is why it is in such good condition. One tiny crack on the dashboard but otherwise it is also in excellent shape, as seen in the photos. Seats are in excellent condition. Oh, the driver side seat belt is a little frayed but it is only an aesthetic concern, not a safety concern. And included is a matching seat belt webbing if you want to replace that. The ceiling material has been replaced, the original one was falling down, and the current one is in excellent shape and it is not falling down. Has an antique Florida license plate. No bumper stickers or stickers of any kind on the car. All the windows work properly. All the locks work properly. So in summary, it is basically impossible to find another Corolla this old, in this good of condition, that runs this good; except for this slight damage (which you may be able to fix yourself in a few days) resulting from the minor fender bender. That's it! Have enjoyed driving this great car for many years and once you fix the front end of the body, am sure that you will enjoy driving it for many more years!
Update: Since typing the above description, the car has sat for a couple of weeks and now it won't start. Battery seems fine. It is probably the starter. The starter may work again, it may just be kind of locked up now from sitting around. You can probably pop the clutch to get it started on a safe incline, or it may possibly need a new starter or something. It may be a simple fix, I don't know. Tested the battery though and it is showing the proper voltage. Also there are no other major dents or scratches on the car anywhere else other that what is described above. It is very clean and the paint is not peeling anywhere. The paint is original and is in very good condition. Also I might can tow/deliver this car to you, if you want and that will cost extra.

Toyota FCV Concept comes one step closer to reality
Wed, 20 Nov 2013When Toyota first conceptualized a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle for mainstream Americans to drive, the initial response was pretty skeptical. Still, through relentless engineering and solid product after solid product, Toyota has built the Prius brand into the dominant force in the hybrid car market.
Something like that plan of attack is what the Japanese company is preparing for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as well, and that attack is seeing a critical salvo fired today with the debut of this FCV Concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Though there's nothing substantive to be said about rumors of a 300-mile range or a sticker price around $50,000, the FCV concept does offer a few technical details. The sharp-beaked concept makes use of two high-pressure hydrogen tanks and boasts a power output density of three kilowatts per liter.
Five automakers now being investigated by NHTSA for airbag woes
Thu, 12 Jun 2014It appears that Toyota's renotification to owners of recalled vehicles from last year is just the tip of the iceberg for what could potentially be a much larger industry-wide recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation investigation into roughly 1.1 million vehicles from Chrysler, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota and parts supplier Takata regarding faulty airbag inflators in several models.
NHTSA has received six reports - three directly, two from Takata and one from Toyota - of vehicles with ruptured airbag inflators from 2002-2006, which resulted in three injuries. So far, all six incidents have occurred in high humidity areas like Florida and Puerto Rico. According to Toyota's latest recall announcement, the inflators may have an improper propellant that could cause it to rupture in a crash and the bag to deploy abnormally.
This new investigation follows a previous recall from April 2013 of about 3.4 million vehicles worldwide for the airbag inflators from Takata. As Autoblog reported, Toyota jumpstarted the new situation when it found that the original list of serial numbers for the faulty part was incomplete and discovered more cars in need of replacement. Honda and Nissan told us that they were investigating whether further models would need called in again as well. Mazda told Autoblog: "Regarding the current Takata situation, we're working closely with NHTSA and investigating the situation, but nothing else to report at this time." Chrysler Group responded to us with the statement: "Chrysler Group engineers are conducting the appropriate analysis. The Company will cooperate fully with the National Highway Traffic Administration."
Toyota expands airbag recall to 2.27M vehicles worldwide
Wed, 11 Jun 2014Was your Toyota inspected under the company's recall campaign for faulty airbag inflators last year? You might have another trip ahead to have it repaired again. The automotive giant says that it found "the involved serial numbers provided by the supplier were incomplete, and did not include all of the potentially involved inflators," according to its official announcement. That means more replacements are needed.
Toyota's April 2013 inflator recall covered the Corolla, Matrix and Tundra from the 2003 and 2004 model years, the Sequoia from 2002 to 2004 and the Lexus SC 430 from 2002 to 2004. At the time, the company said it would need to inspect about 510,000 vehicles in the US but only expected to replace around 170,000 inflators.
However, the latest announcement increases that figure to about 766,300 vehicles in the US. Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the new amount is the combination of owners who need to have their vehicle looked at again and those who didn't come in for the initial recall. The company learned about the problem when Takata, the supplier, provided it with an improved list of the faulty part's serial numbers. According to The Detroit News, the latest recall affects about 2.27 million vehicles from them worldwide. Knight said owners would receive notification of the problem around the end of the month but repairs would come in phases because the automaker doesn't have all of the necessary parts at the moment.
