This might be a bit of an oddball request but are there any 1st gen Celica owners on the forums (UK based)? Or even past owners?
I would really like the opportunity to see one and get an idea of what they’re like from an owner. I imagine they’ll be similar to my 70’s Mitsubishi’s but that’s an assumption. I’m on the verge of selling the Zed cars I’ve picked up over the years and am considering putting the money into a Celica. Usually I throw myself in blind as it’s part of the fun but most my cars or projects are <£1000. When it comes to big money I’m a lot more careful.
I don't so much want a buyers guide, though I'd never turn down advice. It's more a post to find out what they're like as cars and to own.
In return you can have a nose around my ‘71 Torino. This is said with a slight caveat because a) it only works when it wants to and b) if you live in Edinburgh, I’ll have spent half my Celica budget just getting the thing up there!
