Cool Wheels: 1983 Toyota Celica ST

Cars that are born to be driven hard around race tracks or tricky mountain roads (lookin' at you Nurburgring) need to have certain assets like power, handling, and torsional rigidity. But if you chop the top off that same car, you've now got something that is more for cruising and now the...

Hey that was my first new car in 1983 - same color too. But not a convertible, I'd never own one. Fun little car to drive

 

[mfennell]

Haha super happy with the GT350 as a first entry into performance cars.

Wait, what? What did you waste the first 93 years of your life driving?

I only worked on one, that was an oil change in 1977. When I worked at the chevy store, there was an old timer that worked on 'vairs when they came out in 1960. He told me some cool stories about them. He loved working on them, and owned several over the years. Sadly he passed about 10 yrs ago. As for tools a dwell meter and timing light, and a vacuum gauge to set up the carbs.

For some reason, I think silver works on this car. Not as flashy as red, but very nice.
