  1. I assume the changes were made to adjust to new safety laws. The upgrade to 4K was due to the car being heavier. My guess is that they had to upgrade cause the car had become slow.
  2. I meant to ask you this earlier. How'd you get my number??
  3. Fed Ex go overseas don't they?? They did in Cast away. Give them a call.
  4. Its all 4 doors, not 2 and as for the trims only the Update KE55's had ones that went over to the windows. That also reminds me that from 77 onwards they had the same pattern on the door trims as well as the same type of seats. (Not including the update)
  5. Granted items could be swapped over the years but all 4 doors? Plus i'm pretty sure the handle mounting points are closer together on the early 30's as the small bulky handles mounting holes don't match the 55 ones. And i wouldn't completely trust the Gregory's manual. It says its for the KE55's but its also for the KE30's as their wasn't an earlier one. Toyota changed their minds a few times. First L was the pov pack and SE was the extras modal. Then they scapped the L, SE became the pov and CS was bought in for the extras. Then again in the early 80's they scapped SE and made CS the pov and bought in XX for the extras. That continued into the KE70's and for the AE71's XX was scapped and replaced with CS-X. You can say there were all those models but only with two at a time.
  6. I can't take this crap anymore. Its too much for me. I'm ending it now! I'm deleting all 2230 messages in my phone inbox. Just a month and a half from a years worth.
  7. I really couldn't give a crap about maccas anymore. The only fast food i visit is KFC and subway. But rarely for either.
  8. These brochures that I have listed are Australian brochures. I only stuck up that UK one for the tacho :) A theory I have is that they upgraded to the KE55 spec early as my KE30 has KE55 interior door handles. Not sure if anyone has seen but early KE3x foam handles were smaller and bulkier. And KE35's had long, thin foam handles with some fancy stitching on them. It could just be that they ran out of the 30 bits early and started using the 55 ones, or maybe the KE55 specs started earlier than thought, ie when the dash swap happened in 77. It makes sense cause I've seen a few late KE30's with intrusion bars in the doors too. I think that the late KE30's were slower and heavier thats why they upgraded to KE55's with the 4K's and while other countries, like the USA, didn't need to. (Cause they had the 2T = more power)

  12. Is it in a remote area?? Got 4 concrete blocks??
  13. You can do that too in Gone in 60 seconds :)
  14. Well, I think its been long enough. There were no birds. Just an empty nest. And lets just hope that this wall isn't load bearing.

    Hey, looking good so far. :)
  16. The 1980/81 models came in CS and XX. XX was the top of the line and came with all the trimmings. Like velour seats, pockets in the front doors, 5 speed box, colour coded bumpers and FM radio. There might be more but I can't think of any right now. :)
  17. mmm, yeah. Hormone fed chicken. I just love these new boobies of mine.
  18. KFC's service is slow and Maccas's service is fast. Thats why.

    Spotted a light yellow KE20 this afternoon passing through Browns Plains. I would have snapped a pic of it while driving but dad was in the car. It was a P plater and with I could have dropped a brochure.
  20. Send her a PM then :)
  21. :) Okay... November 1974 brochure says two models to choose from... L = Luxury and SE = Special Equipment. SE has the radio May 1975 Brochure says... (4 Door KE30 now available) :) SE has Radial ply tires, heated rear window, radio and cig lighter. Modern Motor Magazine August 1976 says that the CS has... Cassette stereo, band tinted laminated windscreen, tinted rear and side windows and heated rear window demister. Radial ply tires, wool blend seat insets for models with non metallic body colours and adjustable front bucket seats. Rear mud flaps, chrome wheel embellishers and personalised Corolla emblem on rear quarter window. I'd like to see that, I've NEVER seen that. .......................................................................... January 30th 1975 UK brochure doesn't say much but I want... Enjoy...
  22. I'm not really into tea or any fruit. I should get into them tho. Trying to eat veggies. If I don't buy them my parents wont cook them.
  23. Apparently tea is good. The fob kept offering me it.
  24. Parkers are good cause it'll let the person behind you see your tail lights. Headlights only benefit your vision in front of you. The person in front also needs to have their parkers on so others can see his back end. If it gets dark or starts raining so hard that you can't see where you are going, then you need your headlights on.
  25. Had the tests done today. I ran my heart out. So much so that i was covered in sweat by the end. Then afterwards while i was waiting in the waiting room for my results when i began having chest pains. Yay! :) So the test didn't catch anything.
