ltzgmp-ke70 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) Hey, my name is Leah and i just bought my first car =D NEW PHOTOS ADDED! A red 1983 ke70 csXX flat front 5spd manual k50 tacho dash digital clock factory aircon I came across the car from a mate I went to school with (Matt99), who is clearly rolla obsessed. He found it on the side of the road and made an offer to the owner. Ended up buying it on first inspection for a bargain of $500. Unfortunately the car is not registered, but should be booked into vicroads in a week or two, just waiting for new parker lenses to arrive as the current ones are cracked. I'll still be on my L plates for a while yet, so until then my boyfriend is going to use it as his daily and I'll just have it when i feel like going for a drive. I'm new to toyotas and i want to learn as much as possible. Apparently I've bought one of the mintest or near mintest ke70's available at the moment and have had offers from people to buy it off me already. I plan to keep it basically stock as I prefer the appeal of that rather than a completely modified car that becomes unrecognizable. My Plans::: -Nardi wheel -Sigma lca's -lowered suspension, corona struts -ma61 wheels, when i save up enough gold dubloons. -weld the borgy :y: Minor Faults::: -usual tiny amount of rust on rear left passenger door seal -beginnings of rust inside boot, nothing critical though. -paint fade on bonnet, maybe it was left under a tree for a while? one side is bright red, other side is near orange :P -that weird thing ive heard corollas do, cut out for no apparent reason when near idle. . . still confuzzles me, but ive heard its common. -one ciggie burn in the drivers seat, possible minor others on left of centre console in passenger footwell. is there a corolla that hasnt been smoked in!? for some reason photobucket has saved the top two photos as rotated BUT the link keeps showing them around the wrong way :dance: Basically, I'm up for suggestions, improvements, anything really. . Look forward to being educated by all you rolla fans. Edited January 15, 2009 by ltzgmp-ke70 Quote
