Hey guys (& girls)
I'm an English expat living in Minneapolis in the US of A who started getting misty eyed thinking about his first car (73 corolla) but man are those things overpriced! Then by chance I saw a 72 celica and thought - that's the classic in my future!
I'm currently rolling around in an 04 Subaru sti and have a hybrid 01 RS coupe with an 04 sti block, hybrid internals and HUGE GT3076 turbo.
There is a ratty looking 72 for sale that I'm really thinking of going for.
