This car is the nicest 82-85 Celica I've ever seen (non-Supra) and it just about never made it to Ebay.

Here is a video of the car right after I got it

I bought this car a short time ago sight unseen from a junkyard, I was going to part it to use parts for another Celica. When this car arrived on a tow truck, it was much better than I expected, dirty and faded outside but when I opened the door, I found a flawless interior and every piece of documentation in the glove box. It was far better than the car I was working on. I immediately called the towing company and inquired about the paperwork for the car, they told me that they had never filed for a certificate of destruction and for an extra fee I could get a clear title to the car, which I did without hesitation.

This car was bought brand new at Sutherlin Toyota in Clearwater, Florida. It is a nicely equipped Celica, 5spd. A/C, cruise control, power sunroof, and factory rear louvers. It has been completely repainted, it has only 117K miles on it and it absolutely drives like a brand new car.  

 

I will walk you around this car and describe it as I know it.

 

Exterior

When I got this car, it was dirty, faded and had a dent on the side. It has been repainted in the correct Super Red color. It had one dent which was professionally repaired prior to paint. It has zero rust anywhere. All of the lights, plastic, etc. are near perfect. The tires are perfect Bridgestones. The wheels could use some minor detailing and recleared but there are no major flaws. The car looks great, like a new Celica sitting on a lot.

Interior

This car was obviously garage kept and it had window tint, including a tinted windshield, which has all been removed revealing a perfectly flawless and crack free interior. Almost every single piece of every part of the interior is like new, including the factory Toyota floormats and the center armrest. The original cargo cover is intact and works perfectly. Even the original stereo/cassette deck sounds good. Non smoker car. It could use new sunvisors and that's it.

Mechanical

It runs like brand new, drives like brand new, stops great. No leaks, no issues of any kind. Every single thing on this car works perfectly except the drivers side power mirror. Every light, buzzer, and other accessory works perfectly including the power antenna.

 

Overall

This is an amazing car that was very near to getting crushed. It's cool because it's not a Supra and it's not a GT-S convertible, in my opinion it's harder to find a car like this one and this one is the perfect blend of luxury, options, style and rock solid reliability. This particular car has definitely been well cared for throughout a majority of it's life. Why it was in the junkyard or a police auction, who knows. I believe it was a seizure for drugs or DUI. There are no signs of flood or accident damage and I have a clear Florida title for it.

Of all of the Toyotas and cars in general I've messed with in my life, this one is by far the neatest and has the coolest story with it.  If you have any questions, please call me at 941-720-0300, my name is Jason.
