ancullen Posted October 2, 2006 Report Posted October 2, 2006 Made in Beverly Hills? Movie star car perhaps? Well, C-grade movie star maybe. :jamie: Looks nice though, I'll be interested to see how this car develops. Quote

Nitephyre Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 If I remember reading correctly, these were bought as two door hardtops and then customised by above company and sold to the market in limited quantities, WITH toyota US's approval... Quote
JiP Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 Then i'd hold on to this baby. Would look great done up. Quote
Paul Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 (edited) Was it the US equivalent to our T18 when rolled into the custom shop? Wonder how many they made. Would be the only early rolla that looks sweet with 18 inch deep dish chrome wheels and major lowering. Edited October 4, 2006 by Paul Quote
beerhead Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 I don't know why they didn't source some nice crome bumpers considering the amount of effort to make a car into a soft top. Or did the US phase out the chrome look before 83? I think it may be google o clock :dance: Quote
