Beautiful 1st gen Corolla






So, I'm posting a lot tonight. I've had these pics sitting on my computer. This orange crush corolla is perfect. It even sports the Trueno Sprinter 2T-G dohc 1.6L engine that made about 120hp stock (give or take, can't remember the specs). It was the basis for TRD's race engine. This orange example has teh stance down right, the great wheels, perfect resto all around. This thing must be a blast to drive.
Enjoy!

The Honey Bee












So, I learned that the B210 has been nicknamed the Honey Bee. Could be the honey comb grill. Here's some pics of some nice 210's. See, they have potential. At least for a nostalgic j-tin lover.

70's Japanese Vintage Racing











So, found these killer pics on japanesenostalgiccar forum. Really lovin' the Celica's with fat rear wheel/tire combos. If I had a 70's Celica, I'd want it to look like that man!
Check that orange Mazda RX pulling the inside front wheel off the ground on corner exit. That's some serious traction and chassis stiffness (I guess right?...). I love me some vintage J-tin with fender flares and big meats.
They don't make cars like they used to. Chrome bumpers, metal, fender mirrors, 14x9 wheels, carbed dohc 4 cylinders screamin'. I was born 20 years too late. ;)

Potential of a mid '70's Toyota Corona







So, these are some nice modded Corona's I found on the net. japanesenostalgiccar.com forums. Gotta love the small diameter, wide japanese vintage wheels, simple exterior mods, fender side mirrors and fender flares. Man I love this old japanese classic cars. Gotta get me a project car once the basement is finished this spring/summer. ;)

J-VIP = Japanese VIP style













So, this style is getting more interesting to me. The more I see it the more I like it. Instead of the chrome wheels though, I prefer the "mean" look with some dark wheels. Check these out I found with a quick good search.
