Look what I got after JCCS
I got a call on wednesday before JCCS asking me if I wanted another Corolla from a forum member over at 3TC. I told the guy no at first, but then changed that and asked him what year. He replied with a screwed up description of the car, but a rediculous asking price that I couldn't pass up. "Even if it was to just take a look." My jaw dropped when I found this car sitting there. I tried to hide my excitement as best I could, but didn't do a very good job. The seller still practially gave me the car and I called AAA to pull it out.
This car will be getting a 13B streetport motor and Turbo II tranny that I couldn't sell. I've got some Aerospace component brakes for the front and centerline REV's already. I just need to get the car over to ISLANDSNOW to help me with the motor mounts and we'll be rocking and rolling here. I hope to have it running in the very near future and will update this thread accordingly. Til there here are the pictures of my find.
1969 KE17 Corolla SPRINTER
All original purchased from the original owner. Bought from Longo Toyota in 1969 because it was all he could afford.

If it was an R100 I would have left it there. To be honest with you the R100 is an ugly little car. I can't stand them at all. I would only get one of those to sell it.
Oh and the RX-3 is still tucked safely in my Garage. Not going any where.

I'm guessing he'll be selling the RX3 just so he can keep this friggin' Toyota. Either that or the REPU; if he hasn't already cut one of them loose. BTW: I saw the blue RX4 coupe on eBay the other day for sale by the guy PERTANO sold it to.
Let's get a pool going for whoever can guess the date the RX3 goes for sale because the Toyota gets top billing!!!

I sent you a PM. Please call me. I can use a few bits.
The original motor was rumored to have cracked the block. I got it running yesterday.
But I'm still putting the bridgeport 13b that I have in it. This car is begging for a rotary engine.

It's not for sale. It's up for lease. My old neighbors moved to Chicago and kept the house as a rental. They made pretty good money so I guess they can afford to have more then a few houses. I think they own another one somewhere else. Nice houes though. Has a pool and everything.

I think i've seen it already. Kind of a primered red color with thrashed quarter panels? The car is a KE20 though and not even worth 800 IMO. Last time I saw it they wanted 1400 for it. guess they've come off that price some.
