Funking-Awesome Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 (edited) G'day guys my name is Tom, I am from SA. I am 15 and a half and got my first car yesterday. Its a 1982 corolla luxury edition. Air con, 5 speed manual etc. The lady (60) who i bought it off had almost everything replaced on it so it was all smick. She drove it around the corner to her work and back everyday. If anyone wants to donate a nice set of rims that would be muchly appreciated! :) :P :y: Now I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Get rid of that hideous rear muffler, full 2" exhaust system wouldn't go astray :) . cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavclassic Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Start with a set of extractors with an 1" 1/2 system and lowered coils will make a great improvement. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it really worth pimpin' out the 4k? In my books, no. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the clear coat that has perished and the dirt has gone in and under the clear. Very expensive to get restored. A cheep set of 14" can be found on the Celica's, they have a good looking factory steel wheel complete with centre caps, they look similar to the Corolla 13" but 14 x 5.5.
