Hello rollaclub My name's Mudgy, found this site quite by accident. Unfortunately, I don't have my KE 10 anymore, I sold it to my apprentice back in 1993 - 94. It was a '67 sedan white, '71 discs+struts, '67 sprinter grille (red badge) '80 or '81 5 speed, formuling steering wheel, steering column was hard chromed to take a needle bearing instead of a bush in the ol slush box, Galant front seats, (I think it was a 77 galant), XB mirrors with Escort spacer/stand-offs, the right one was from a Fairlane - even had the little silver joystick!! 4Kuc motor with old model head, SS exh, twin 45mm DCOE side draught webers, (can't remember the inlet manifold - I think it was Cain?) Damn I wish I still had it. Back in '91, I managed to get new door rubbers, sill plates, windscreen rubbers, the whole catastrophe. A mate did the head lining in grey velour when I painted it peak white in 1989. Also had Mazda 626 steelies so I could use 13" tyres (the last of the RWD 626's) My brother had a red wagon - same age, same mods, except he had some alloys. They went like stink for a little car, and stopped ok too. Here's a photo of it in 1992 parked in what is today my lounge room. Had to sell the ol' girl, and the missus' 76 wagon, to make way for a VP commodore. Oh well, it was good to reminisce. I'll see if I can find some old photos of the red wagon, and the missus' blue one. Great cars, always were. Cheers Mudgy Corolla67KE10.jpg

Members dont see this ad

Edit - Just found out, maybe this was a '66 model. Had the thin dash, protruding instruments cluster, no door lock buttons, rather lever on the door trim itself.

 

Anyone care to share differences between '66,'67, and '68/'69 models????
