Hello all I have been into old school toyotas going on two years now. I currently have 3 Corollas , a 79 "custom" with original 3K-C and K40 4spd , an 80 wagon with a mildly built 3T-C and 3spd auto, and an 81 sedan all original 3T-C and 3spd auto. I started with the wagon which got me wanting more because the body on the wagon is rusted to the point that I dont want to spend the money fixing it, The 81 was bought in the purpose of yanking the engine out and putting the one from the wagon in there but I found a different engine that I want to swap into the 81 (2.3T Ford with a t-5). The 79 is such a great running car with 85,000 original miles on it I am going to use it as my daily driver because of the fuel savings. I am looking into getting a first gen celica for my mom because she seen pictures of one on my computer one night when i was setting up her wireless network for her. I am currently deployed to afganistan with the US Army but will be returning to Ft.Campbell Ky soon.

welcome to the site!

the 79 "bug-eyed" Celica is a great car! not a lot of people liked them, but i've seen a few that looked nice slammed with a nice set of wheels.

the 20R in it is pretty much bullet proof.

be careful where you're at and stay safe!

welcome to the site, enjoy all the people here ,there good people , keep your self safe.. Mike
