Up for bids is this beautiful 1971 Toyota Celica st coupe, the very 1st year of the Celica. It was restored in 2008. restoration started i believe in 2007. the body was stripped down to metal to address the rust issues then painted silver. Rubber weatherstripping replaced with oem toyota parts. there are no dents or dings. The bumpers were rechromed, replaced the old Celica script and dragon emblems with new old stock. All gauges, lights(except the dome light, may not be connected), clock work as they should, windows roll up and down. the radio turns on but just a buzz sound so speaker may be bad or just not hooked up. The interior is also solid, new carpet, new headliner,front seats reupholstered to match the original, door and side panels are almost mint. the dash has a small crack almost at the edge on the driver side but hardly noticeable. It has a fully rebuilt 18RG engine, by Karzone in Carson, CA. with twin side solex mikuni carbs, port and polish, headers etc. engine may have about 1000 miles on it, never raced this car though. It has a 5 speed transmission. In 2012 i had the suspension worked on, new kyb shocks front and back, tie rods, bushings etc. The car had air conditioning before but took it out as evidenced by the a/c hose lines and center a/c vents. Tires are Michelin 175/70r/13 on the stock rims. It even has the original hub caps in good condition. Recent work on the car was brakes were refreshed/cleaned due to sticking from not being used, i guess. Also the windows were checked and refreshed to make sure they roll up and down. Not sure if the plastic film between the door and the panel was put back in order. Has new Bosch battery with 3 yr. free replacement warranty, voltage regulator, alternator. i have the duplicate California title as i thought i lost the original but later found it. So i have both. The title reads 1970 as year but that is a typo, celicas started 1971 model. no back fees. California registered till august 2014. The CA. title shows actual mileage 66,458 as of 8-4-97 now it shows 73,204 on odometer. i cannot confirm this however. Sold as is, no warranties.

I am selling this Celica as i need to make room for a soon to be finished project restoration of my Trueno. This car needs to be driven more often than i did. I reserve the right to end auction early as i am advertising it also locally and at the old school toyota forums.

If you have any questions or concerns you can contact me at 310-753-7one00.

2016 Toyota Tacoma fears no canyon in Detroit

Tue, Jan 13 2015

It took a lot for it to finally happen, but with the 2015 GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado posing a clear and present danger to its near monopoly in the mid-size pickup market, Toyota finally introduced a new version of its Tacoma. Introduced at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, the long-serving Taco has been refit, ditching its old, thirsty and uncouth 4.0-liter V6 with a Toyota's smooth-revving and powerful 3.5-liter, naturally aspirated six pot. Output figures haven't been published, but considering the V6 churns out around 270 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque in vehicles like the Toyota Camry and Highlander, we should expect similar numbers in the 3.5's first truck application. Joining the six-pot will be the previous truck's 2.7-liter four-cylinder. Beyond the powertrain tweaks, Toyota has delivered a significantly updated aesthetic that borrows elements of the 4Runner with newer design touches. A strong, prominent grille and muscular fender arches are fitting touches, while the new wheel design, one of our, featured on the show Tacoma deliver some added visual impact. The cabin, meanwhile, could best be thought of as that of a baby Tundra, sporting a similar layout and, when properly equipped, materials and touches that wouldn't look out of place on its big brother, the Tundra. Take a look at our full crop of live shots, available up top.

Scion's would-be savior C-HR spied before its Toyota rebadging

Wed, Feb 3 2016

Scion is dead, but one of its future products, the C-HR concept, is still in development for launch as a Toyota. Toyota does a thorough job of hiding the C-HR's rakish shape on these test cars, but we can spot the concept's design cues. For example, the pointed nose and narrow headlights are present, and the giant box on the roof can't hide the downward arch for the coupe-like rear. The back doors on these examples look larger than before, which suggests a switch to a traditional five-door body rather than the hidden rear openings on the concept. The change would offer easier access to the backseat and make the C-HR a better competitor in the segment against vehicles like the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, and Jeep Renegade. The C-HR debuted as a boldly styled three-door crossover at the 2014 Paris Motor Show. Toyota later restyled the CUV with a more angular shape and extra doors. We most recently saw the compact crossover with Scion branding at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show. Rumors suggest the production model's debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and it could arrive at dealers in the latter half of 2016. The powertrain lineup likely consists of a four-cylinder engine with a CVT and possibly a hybrid version, too. You'll also get to see the C-HR on the track because Toyota will race the crossover in the 2016 Nurburgring 24 Hours. Related Video:
