glenpos Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 haha i like your model grill and mine the same, i'm talking about this sort looks ok from some angles but is ugly from most, its an rt81 with drum brakes and 12r, low back seats, and yes the gauges are round, i'm talking about the holes in the dash, in your pics the bits that are painted silver are square instead of round, and they have a few different vents and stuff, same as the red corona, left is a 1971 rt81, and right is my 1970 rt80, everything is the same apart from the motor, but the red and dark blue ones have quiet a few different bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longboy Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 (edited) It's funny, so many people say they hate Coronas, when I tell them I drive a 1973 Corona they don't get excited at all.. Then they see it and they froth. They hate on them without even knowing what they are hahaha ahhhhh well. I'm a happy man :) quoted for truth. I have an rt104, when I tell people I drive a corona I can just see them cringing on the inside. Edited October 4, 2013 by longboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendablefall Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) Hey dudes just found this thread, i have a 73 rt81, 12r, disks on front, (as you say, the ugly one :-( ) but i love her!! heres some pics I'm going to get those rims polished and new tyres, in the meantime i will be rocking these the flapper are just sitting on the wheel in the photo, as ill install them aftyer the rwc left is a 1971 rt81, and right is my 1970 rt80, everything is the same apart from the motor, but the red and dark blue ones have quiet a few different bits are the tail lights, interchangable from the ones you have in this photo, to my style? i love the rt80 tail lights, and would love to swap them over if its possible, mine look longer so i just wanna check before buying a pair! also love the rt80 grill, any chance that is interchangable? keep the rt8X series rolling!!!

glenpos Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 hey mate, that looks clean as!! the rt80 tail lights holes are smaller near the number plate, i'll have a look at the bolt holes to see if they line up, you could always weld a bit of plate in to fill the hole, and the bonnet, guards, stone tray at the bottom and rad support panel are different, also the bumpers mount different, but iv'e seen it done before, cheers mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
