I think I found my new DD!

[Mr.SelfDestruct]

its an old celica just like lankys! I only saw it for a split second, and it was only the front 1/4 of the car. i dont even know if its for sale, but i'll still make an offer(depending on the condition of the car)

 

[Squid699]

If you can - get it. They're rare. Besides the 3 that my dad and I have had (the blue one being sold to lanky) I've never seen any other 71-74 celicas. Most are 75-77

 

[SupraMario]

nice what did the condition look like from the quick glance?

 

[Mr.SelfDestruct]

It looked freakin mint! i so wnat to buy it!

 

[lanky189]

be sure to check it thoroughly for rust... very..very thoroughly..

 

[Mr.SelfDestruct]

I know, you always do on old cars, but thats assuming they'll sell it to me, if the do, do you still have your old foglights? and did you have an aftermarket suspension?

 

[lanky189]

driving lights are gone.. but you can get them easy at and advanc store

my suspension was stock..cept for my shocks which are currently on ebay...

lemme know what motor it has once/if you get it.. i may have some goodies for ya.

 

[Mr.SelfDestruct]

I know where there is a Celica like that, not sure what year exactly but looks like Lanky's old one.

Much love for the 1st gen Celica from me.

 

[Squid699]

I miss mine :cry:

 

[Mr.SelfDestruct]

got some pictures of it today... dammit.

 

[Squid699]

looks like a 75

 

[Mr.SelfDestruct]

I know, I'm kinda mad, because I could litterally see myself driving the first gen... but this one would compare to it like an ugly step-sibling.

 

[Jeff Lange]

What's everyone have against the 75-77's? They look very close, and I personally have no preference as far as looks go for one or the other, and they're all 1st gen Celicas, 70-77.

Oh well .

 

[mkiiSupraMan18]

damn.... find out what they want for it...........

My dad had an older red celica that looked like that. He called it "The Beater". It wasn't the nicest or cleanest, but it lasted a long time. It was stolen and we got it back. Eventually we got rid of it because my dad wasn't mechanically inclined enough to do brake work, and he kept losing brake fluid - and we couldn't afford to get it fixed. Still.. many years of good service and commuting from that car.

1st gen Celicas, 70-77.
