hey cool Sinturion if u need anyhelp getting parts from say wellington i can help u , if u need me to pick them up or anything hows the motor run in it ?
Cheers for the offer sprey16 - I'll keep it in mind. I only briefly started up the engine and there wasn't any sign of knock or smoke. No burn marks on the dip stick either. The coolant was looking pretty bad so I'll probably have to flush it.
cool yeah i seen a red 1 of them down hear looked pretty good , and the bar lights actualy didnt look to bad
:morons: i'm sure i might be the only person who desires the corona coupe front end on my celica. its just so awesome. i am seriously considering asking one of the engine importers to get a front clip in tact with one of those so i can do it. the only real problem would be the size of the bumper and if there were any of the extra protection behind the bumper that isn there on the corona. lights bonnet bumper fenders grill anything else i would need? i don;t think so. damn i wish i was in nsw or aus. way more choices on the cars over there that i like than we got here in the us. your corolla's, corona coupe/celicas, heliux diesel. man! so jealous. can you take more pictures of that sexy corona please? or maybe let me stay with you for a while if i come over there? hahaha...seriously though. i'm thinking of coming and need a place to stay. can't you help a brother from another mother out? als: :devil: hone: :static: fftopic:
I think the fenders and the bumper is the same. As for the bonnet you could always go fibreglass or carbon fibre - then all you would need is some headlights, indicators (which I think you could just use your orange ones) and grill. If you're visiting you could probably put it in your luggage! Yeah we get some good JDM stuff here - but we don't get much in the way of US muscle cars though.
hmmm they could be the same. i dunno. wouldnt mind keeping some of the stuff the same. and i could just bring the lights home in a carry on with the grill. but then i would have to find that donor car. and i would want to get power folding mirrors as well. damn i need to make a trip over there. been wanting to go anyways. i wonder if i could convince my girlfriend to take a trip there with me. ha! man now i want a second 4g to mess aound with. damnit!
p.s. get more pics up when you get the chance. that thing really is a beuty. can;t belive you got it for so cheap. very lucky! and sorry for the excited craziness, but i fell in love with your car. and i would totally trade an american muscle car for that car or 2 any day. not a big fan of those. except for the ford '69 boss 302 mustang and pontiac gto :hic:
yeah if we get dodges there like $$$$ haha yeah we get heaps of jdm stuff besides st162 performance parts :roll:
o0o0oo0 that is nice. and its my color too. well i am going to have to steal your reverse idea and get those lamps, bonnet and grill off the corona. that just looks super nice. totally keep this updated. and your idea about turning it into a vert is awesome. good luck!
I think you'll have to get a shipping quote man - then the bidding war begins. J/k, but I would seriously consider buying those parts from you.
you guys need to holiday over here and go round the country finding parts , im sure youl find a bunch of corona head lights still a corona gt four cracks me up "P
You have no idea man - some day I am coming there and a cargo container full of stuff is coming back with me.
hahahah i have a friend who is moving tto japan. i am sooooooooo going to visit him and tour there. whenever i have extra cash. but yeah i would bring back so many lights. clear corners, whatever. and of course pics upon pics upon pics. corona lights on the hatch look sweet
