1974 Corolla for sale

Post by Centermass »

1974 Toyota Corolla 2 door sedan 1600 Deluxe. This Corolla is in excellent condition for its age and has only 124,000 documented original miles! These Corolla’s are getting VERY hard to find . . . especially in this well-kept condition. Clean and clear Arizona title. Original plan was to restore for daily driving, but circumstances have prolonged a completion date. In no rush to sell and not desperate for $$$. If I don't get a good offer, then I'll store it and conduct a long restoration project. Asking price is $4,500 - As Is Sale. Payment will be by cash or cashier's check (release pending verification of deposit). The car is located in Las Vegas and any necessary shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer. Please contact me for any questions.
Thanks,
Eric

EXTERIOR
The paint is all original and still has a good shine. There are some wear spots from wax jobs over the last 40 years that have taken their toll and worn through the paint on the usual spots (Top of windshield, top of the front fenders, and various spots on the roof). All the body panels are original. There is some rust on the lower front fenders behind the front wheels which is common for these cars. There is patch work you can see in the pics. I did not find any rust anywhere else. There is a silver dollar size paint blemish on the driver fender (see pics). There are miscellaneous rock chips from normal road debris but, nothing excessive or out of the ordinary for a vehicle it’s age.

INTERIOR
The interior is EXCEPTIONALLY clean and all original. The seats are in great shape except for the driver’s seat (see pics). All interior controls work great . . .even the vintage radio. Heater works great as well. All lights, buttons and switches are operating properly. All window glass is intact and in great condition. Headliner is perfect! The dash does have one crack in the center which is common. The rear deck lid is perfect. No strange smells . . .never smoked in.

ENGINE,TRANS,SUSPENSION AND BRAKES
The engine is legendary 2TC 1.6 Liter. It’s starts the first time, every time and settles into a smooth idle. No smoking, strange noises or issues. The transmission is the Toyota T40 4 Speed manual and shifts very well. Suspension is all stock and still rides very smooth with no excessive bounce or roll. The brakes are firm with great pedal feel. No pulling, vibration or issues. This Corolla tracks straight and true just like it did in 1974! The wheels are 13” slotted alloy mags which are period correct. I also have the original steel wheels with hub caps that will come with the vehicle. The tires are in great shape and have 75% tread on all four corners.

Update: I got no immediate offers so I started the "Resto-Mod" project. It was mostly finished about 2 years ago - nothing crazy, just a good cruiser.

Unable to post pictures, so that's why I added the photobucket link. Were you able to open it up?
