hi, i bought my Celica a couple months back for $5000 AUD which was a bargain because it had only done 45000 genuine km's the reason for this is because it was owned by an old lady who had a stroke and since then it sat in a garage for like 20years and the son inherited it but didn't want it so i bought it off him its 100% original and the interior is like brand new still having the display sticker 2d denso still on the dash and quarterpanels amasingly enough it still has the stock tyres from 1988!
Wow... nice find!! and with less than 100,000 kms on the clock... what a gem! is that a white lightning?! holy shit... jealous... so jealous... nice! any mods planned for that beast?
That is a major find! If it is a white lightning - please put up some close-up pics of the side graphix, interior ASAP From memory the white lightning has white striping/bumpers etc? Check those tyres & hoses for cracks Oh, and welcome to the "family"! U hitta me - we hitta U ohnoes ps. what's with Kev's and 16x's?
haha thanks its not a white Lightning but the grill is a whitelighting grill i picked it up for seven bux at the wreckers i'll put some pics up of the interior
Kevin, welcome to Celicalitus world! That is truely what dreams are made of, a real gem of a find. Mine also belonged to an old man, myself bi=eing the second owner. Was that engine bay as clean as that when you bought it. Loved the stereo and the headrests, love EVERYTHING on your Celica!
Thats great, are you planning to mod it? It"d be ashamed I think to start messing about with such an original car. Did you put the Chuck Norris sticker on?
Glad to hear that mate, otherwise I"d fly over and kidnap it from you! You a martial arts fan ? Is there not a speck or even tiny bit of bubbling of any kind in the bodywork? Such a rare fine indeed!! Look after it please!
Like to see some photos of the whole car please! Noticed the original car mats as well! Fabulous! and the leather gearknob is in great condition.
haha yeah i do karate, theres tiny bit on a corner of the sunroof but i'm getting that fixed nxt week for $350 AUD other than that its rust free, of course im gunna look after it its my baby hehe , I'll put some more photos of the whole car 2moro.
Do you know what the mileage is in "Miles?" Also how much do you think it would be in UK sterling for the price of it you paid
Thanks Kev! Thats is an amazing mileage and the price is a bargain!! Mine had 48,000miles, cost £3,200, back in 2000. I have a sister in Australia. She"s in New South Wales, about 1 hour from Sydney. Whereabouts are you?
