Thank you for taking the time to read the entire ad, if the ad is still up then we still have the car. The car for sale is the 1st picture, the other pictures in the ad are the same year make and model car just customized a bit.
This is a car I bought for my son and I to fix up....this would be our third we have done but our first custom wagon. We have been working on it a bit and will continue to work on it, the price will adjust as we do more to it. So if you are interested in buying it as it sits today it is $1400. The other two cars got finished before they were sold, this one may or may not but we put them online as we go as different people have different tastes and may not like the changes we make but want to purchase the car as a platform for their own tastes.
It's a 78 Corolla wagon deluxe has a great running stock famous 2TC 1.6L race engine capable of up to 400hp engine and a 3 speed automatic A40 03-55 Aisin/Borg Warner tranny. The car was being used as a daily driver by the person we bought it from.
I have driven it about 50 miles since we got it, it is a very nimble and fun car to drive it is very light (about 2000 lbs) I have taken it on the highway and up to 65mph and it cuts through the air great, in the last week my son and I have put a brand new water pump and waterpump/alternator belt, new valve cover gasket, platinum plugs, new complete distributor, a cap and a rotor a new coil and plug wires and changed the engine oil and filter.
In the next two weeks we plan to change the rear diff fluid, service the tranny (reverse and 3rd gear are a little weak), buy a new battery, buff out the other body pieces (only the driver door and passenger fender have been buffed out so far the entire paint job will polish up with another 3 to 4 hours of elbow grease) order new tires and rims, tint the windows and get the air conditioning working (the ac is all there but there is no belt on the compressor so we will see what it's going to take these old systems are easy).
After that we will be thinking about paint ideas or may just keep the factory paint and putting a header manifold on it with a good muffler and a full new exhaust (current exhaust is just fine) and then maybe suspension modifications.
All the accessories lights wipers heater blinkers etc etc work now except the a/c. The car has a clean clear OK title and current tag to Sept 2013, it is not all rusted out nor has it ever been wrecked all the glass is good all the gauges work and the car has just over 100k miles we are the 4th owner. The first owner had it for its first 85k miles the second bought it and kept it for a few months and sold it to his friend the third owner and he brought it up to its current mileage which is about 112k. The car has all 4 center caps (the back one is off in this picture) and a full size spare with the same rim.
The car is located in Claremore, Ok and can be delivered as far as Houston or even Galveston or anywhere in between through Dallas for the cost of fuel.
Thanks for reading-have a good day

Toyota Aygo stars in 'invisible driver' prank
Sat, 14 Jun 2014We love a good automotive-themed prank. Rémi Gaillard remains a favorite, although maybe we should take a closer look at MagicOfRahat, another online prankster. Rahat, who has developed a bit of a reputation for blending in with car seats, giving the impression that there's no one behind the wheel, has taken his talents to Europe, in a new video for Toyota.
Dressed to look like the seat of the new Toyota Aygo, Rahat goes about town freaking out tollbooth operators, valets, fast food servers and even receiving a bit of unwanted attention from the police. The result is, as is usually the case with this prank, pretty darn amusing. We were kind of hoping he'd pop up and give his victims a fright, as he did in his Halloween video, but alas, that wasn't to be.
Take a look below for the full video.
Will Toyota lose up to 70% of its workforce in TX relocation?
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Toyota's decision to move its US headquarters from its longtime home in Torrance, CA, to Plano, TX, was one of the biggest stories in the automotive industry this spring. With several months since the announcement, more details about the plan have leaked out. It seems that pulling up stakes could mean an even larger shakeup in the Toyota workforce than first thought.
According to Automotive News, Toyota intends to hang onto around 50 percent of its workforce in the move to the Lone Star State. However, even that figure might be optimistic. According to an unnamed insider speaking to AN, there is a fear the actual number could be closer to 30 percent. For comparison, Nissan retained about 42 percent of its workers in its move from California to Tennessee.
The actual percentage making the move is a mystery because Toyota is still rewriting its job descriptions under a single set of guidelines. The changes affect benefits, bonuses and the reporting structure, according to Automotive News, and employees' reactions could play a big role in who decides to go. According to an unnamed worker speaking to AN, the wait is hurting morale. Some people are even applying at the nearby Honda headquarters.
BMW-Toyota joint sports car project is on like Donkey Kong
Mon, 30 Dec 2013It's official - there will be a jointly developed sports car from BMW and Toyota. While the two auto giants signed a Memorandum of Understanding that pledged to pursue "joint development of architecture and components for a future sports vehicle" back in June of 2012, in the interim, it has remained unclear how those plans had been progressing. BMW has finally officially confirmed that the German and Japanese manufacturers will be codeveloping a pair of sports cars in addition to pursuing other disciplines including fuel cell systems and lightweight technologies.
"We have agreed on a joint architecture for a sports car. What is important is that there will be two different vehicles that are authentic to the two brands," BMW Development Chief Herbert Diess told Germany's Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Reuters is reporting. This is a very, very big step for both brands, but now the speculation can officially begin as to what the products of this agreement will look like.
There's ample reason to believe that the BMW-Toyota tie up will result in a Supra successor based on comments made by the chief engineer of the GT86/FR-S program, Tatsuya Tada, back in August. Follow that with a rumor from earlier this month that Toyota could debut a Supra concept car at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show later this month, and we could be seeing the fruits of this partnership sooner rather than later.
