1977. Wish I could beat Cali smog, but the liftbacks only came in 76 and 77.

Wow, Sexy. Clean too. Just move. Most places probably move the emissions year up to 25 years ago. I know PA does. I'm sure other places do too.

I was never into drifting really, no, but I'm confident that I could make this car drift worthy with enough work.

drop a s2000 motor (f20c) into that sucker and call it a day....nice car

the f20 is definitely a nice option, but carries around a 10k pricetag. I'll be looking to upgrade the suspension first after I get some of the rarer parts from Japan (jspec bumpers and valence) out of the way.

Welcome to my world.
I am in the process of restoring a 76 and a 77 Celica coupe. Parts aren't that hard to come by. Just hit up ebay and classic-celica.com often.

good god those cars can definately use an improvement in lighting.
we had no problem turning the `73 skyline into artwork for our office display. hollar if you ever need anything (once they're roadworthy) because stock blows.
oh yeah, i dont think any aftermarket companies will be quick to offer lights for those antiques. :-)

My s14 may not be of interest to most people.
1995 240sx SE. Green/Blue. 89,XXX miles. auto.
Havn't thought of a price yet, but it won't be for sale until I trust driving my celica every day. I may also be interested in a trade for an s13.

i love those cars, although i am partial to coupes. i was thinking about getting one, but the work that needed to be done was too intimidating. good luck, i want to see pics when you start to work on it:bigok:

the engine bay is kinda small for some of those engines, although I've heard of the 5mge being installed.
