Up for sale is my 1981 Corolla. I bought another car and no longer drive it. It's time for someone else to enjoy it as much as I have.
103,500 original miles
Just swapped from auto to 5-speed. While swapping I pulled the motor and replaced all the gaskets including the head gasket.
AC works but needs a recharged.
Modifications:
AE86 Megan coilovers
AE86 from brake upgrade with brembo drilled and slotted rotors and Hawk HPS pads
Megan roll center adjusters
T3 lateral bar
AE86 polyurethane bushings
XXR wheels with Hankook Ventus HRII tires (90% tread left)
Aluminum flywheel
Exedy OE spec clutch
Weber 32/36 carb
New header and exhaust
NRG hub and quick release
TRD knock off steering wheel
Toyota 80's mudflaps
I wired an amp under the drivers seat to be able to play music trough a phone/iPod without losing the stock dash appearance
The car runs and drives good, it is leaking trans fluid through the rear seal but I have a new seal, just no time to put it in. It will occasionally grind going into fourth and won't downshift into second but I have a spare t50 trans in good working order, again just don't have the time to swap it.
The car is completely rust free underneath. It was in Texas until 2009 and was never driven in the snow once in Ohio, I've always had it garaged from September through May due to being away at school since I bought it in 2010. The interior is in very good condition, there is one crack in the dash, ~1in long, and there is a tare in the drivers side seat bolster just from normal use. Body and paint are excellent for the age, a few dings and scratches here and there but nothing bad at all, still the original paint and no body filler or anything like that on it. You won't find another original body and paint corolla that is cleaner than this.

Toyota to sell hot-pink Crown in Japan
Sun, 11 Aug 2013Akio Toyoda is doing a pretty decent job at the helm of the Toyota empire. This is the man, after all, that declared that Toyota would get new sports cars, and that they needed to be, not should be, rear-wheel drive. We can respect that. Toyoda is also trying to do away with his company's conservative styling and bring edgier vehicles to market.
Toyota's designers have done just that, although perhaps they went a bit too far. In November, Toyota debuted its fourteenth-generation Crown with a bling-bling fascia that makes Lexus' spindle grille look as conservative as a three-piece suit, and a retina-searing pink paintjob. See, in Japan, the Crown is to Japan's older crowd what the 2002 Buick Park Avenue is to America's senior citizens. As Automotive News reports, the idea with the pink was to draw attention to the grille, but it was originally intended as a debut item, only.
Now, Toyota is actually planning to offer the electric fuchsia Crown for sale to regular buyers. Interested parties will have from September 1st to September 30th to place an order for the big sedan. According to the AN report, Toyoda said to reporters at the debut, "My initial reaction was: 'You're kidding! Please, not pink." We wish they were kidding.
Buy a Toyota GT86 and your wife will hate you
Wed, 14 Nov 2012Marketing can be a very strange business. Convincing a man or woman (or child, really) that they absolutely cannot live without the latest, greatest new bit of technology oftentimes takes a unique approach. In the "online film promoting the Toyota GT86" you'll see below, created by agency Happiness Brussels, men are reverse-psychologied into thinking a new sports coupe will make them more masculine by getting their loved ones to hate them. Or something like that. We think.
In any case, we suggest you watch the video below to see how much fun men can have with a GT86 - or Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ, presumably - at the expense of their significant others. Fair warning: There's a potential Not Safe For Work moment in the ad: beware of a brief male butt shot about 44 seconds in.
Marketing. Gotta love it. Unless you're married to a man. Or something like that. We think. Whatever, just watch.
Toyota bids farewell to FJ Cruiser with Ultimate Edition at SEMA
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Happy trails, to you... As we reported back in August, the FJ Cruiser is headed to the great automotive graveyard in the sky, and Toyota is offering a fitting eulogy in the form of the 2014 Trail Teams Ultimate Edition, which was just unveiled here at the 2013 SEMA Show.
Unlike many special edition models, the Ultimate FJ Cruiser earns its name with a host of parts from Toyota Racing Development, starting with TRD Bilstein race shocks that Toyota says improve damping, articulation and high-speed stability. The front shocks measure 66 millimeters and feature TRD race coil springs, with geometry that improves the approach angle; the 50mm rear units are equipped with remote reservoirs to diminish damping fade.
A new one-quarter-inch thick aluminum TRD front skid plate offers protection for the underbody bits, and the outfit is completed with a BF Goodrich A/T KO tires on 16-inch bead lock wheels, rock rails and a roof rack. Check out the high-res image gallery above and the press release below for all the rest of the details.
