I am not sure if the car was ever resprayed-but I am doubtful it was. The color code was for silver. The car did live near the ocean before but far enough out to not affect it much. I’m at not sure where it’s home was before that. I will definitely be going over it and hopefully will repaint it in the future!

Thanks! It’s a 1975-rust is minimal just some surface rust but also has a few pinholes on the hood. Got the car in good shape, runs pretty well besides a likely vacuum leak and dying at stop signs. Here’s a few more photos of it. Appreciate the advice and looking forward to scouring the forum for more fixes and suggestions.

Hi Banjo-I just recently acquired this car about a month ago and it will hopefully one day become a “show car” I’ll attach some photos as well. Altezza-thank you so much for the detailed response this helps immensely. I plan to start digging into the car soon and will do what you detailed to test it. I’ll definitely start in the rear as well.

Thanks for the information-I’m a rookie when it comes to suspension but trying to learn what I can. How did you handle the rear leaf suspension (if the KE70 had leafs)? Heres a photo of how low my KE30 sits.

I recently bought a 1975 KE30 Corolla-the previous owner installed a large spacing block for the rear leaf springs. The front has unidentified lowering springs as well. Has anyone explored an air suspension lift (helper) universal kit for the rear leaf springs? And/or air suspension in the front? The car rides very rough and is almost slammed, I enjoy it being low but the cost of a rough ride is not fun.
