1972 18RC / 8RC HYBRID (Tired bottom end + new HI-COMPRESSION 8RC HEAD + big WEBBER CARB = lasted maybe a month.

1974 GT-CLICA :woot: (with a screaming , tire smoking, 18RG that would tach to 8000 RPM's all day long. My 1st eng SWAP) :2thumbs:




HOBBIES: SHOOTING ,PAINTBALLING UP IN THE Mountains , 4X4, ROCK CRAWLING, Presently in College and Have one yr left then im building a old school Celica or maybe a 510

I have 2 kids now.

there's quite a few of us around... and our numbers seem to be growing as more find others with these cars.

pay close attention when you're out on the roads... you just might find one of us out cruising our Celicas!
