I have a show condition 1979 Toyota Corolla (sport coupe) that has been treated to a nice babied life over the years.I cannot express how cool & clean this car is for a 30 year old Toyota,The color is a mild yellow ( a very nice job) with black cloth interior all in great condition,the dash has a few cracks which is common in these cars . The body is nice and straight with a slick quality paint job, the inner & outter wheel wells.firewall,undercarriage all have been painted ,the bumpers have just been re-chromed.. Hard to find Toyota in this condition,with minor blemishes that have to be looked for.I bought the car & added the wheels they are ol school American Racing daisy narrow front/ wider rears with like new tires,I will also throw in the weld racing wheels with car. The motor looks to be fresh and dry,as I can see the head has double valve springs and the intake ports have been ported & polished,the ports are as big as can be.I installed the double weber set up with chrome intake(rare) it looks great I have over $800 invested in the carb & intake.,I have not tuned it since installed,the car does come with the single carb (weber) intake set up.I also have billet ,pulleys,chrome valve cover,fuel regulator misc parts that can be part of the deal. The engine is strong has a nice new exhaust system,a performance clutch that pulls hard, a overall beautiful Toyota that is a head turner, comes equipped with add-on power windows,a nice air horn and also has aftermarket HID HEAD LIGHTS,looks and sounds great. Alot of time & money is invested in this little cruiser. The car is solid but it is a 30 yr old vehicle sold as is where is. I will probably regret selling but too many projects & limited space so someone will get a awesome ol skool Toyota that will only go up in value. Thanks for looking ,check my feedback,I am a no nonsense car guy,come & inspect the car is located about 10 min from Wrigley Field Chicago home of the Chicago Cubs. Ron 773-878-3000 mon-fri 8-6.

Toyota recalling 342k Tacomas due to faulty seatbelt pretensioners
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Toyota is voluntarily recalling 342,000 Tacoma Access Cab pickups, produced between 2004 and 2011. The wide-ranging recall is due to faults in the screws that attach the belt pre-tensioner to the belt retractor. There are concerns that the screws can loosen themselves over time, especially if the access door is opened and closed with too much force. It's important to note that the recall only covers the driver and front passenger seat, and is limited to just the Access Cab trucks. Other body styles aren't affected.
If the screws come loose, the pre-tensioner and retractor spring could separate from the belt entirely, which would be bad news in a crash. There's no mention of injuries or accidents due to the faulty pre-tensioners. Owners affected by the recall will be notified soon, and asked to come in for recall service.
Toyota Hilux successor spotted
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The midsize truck segment is suddenly seemingly exploding with new vehicles worldwide, even here in North America. Not only will the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon be available very soon, Toyota is already testing a replacement for its aging Tacoma and Honda has promised a Ridgeline replacement within the next 18 months. Also, the recently shown Nissan Navara is said to portend the future of our Frontier. Here's some more fresh evidence from Europe of this pickup boom with the next generation of its venerable Hilux in testing.
Thanks to Top Gear and sometimes the evening news, the Hilux has built a reputation of being able to go just about anywhere. According to out spy shooter, this particular pickup was spotted during hot weather testing in southern Europe. Interestingly, a Volkswagen Amarok was along for the ride as a benchmark. Because the VW tends to offer a bit more comfort than the generally utilitarian Hilux, this could indicate Toyota is considering taking the new truck in a slightly comfier, more refined direction.
Compared to the current model, this camouflaged tester sports a narrower front grille and headlights. The hood scoop is also absent here. The lower air dam also receives a more horizontal look, but the more vertical fog light housings provide some contrast. The crazy camouflage pattern makes things hard to discern at the rear, but the taillights appear to be more slender than they on the current model. Unfortunately, mechanical details about the new truck remain a mystery at the moment, but enjoy these spy shots as a preview of one more upcoming pickup.
119K Toyota Avalon sedans recalled over airbag woes
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Toyota has issued a voluntary safety recall for 119,000 2003-2004 Avalon models because in some cases the airbags could inadvertently deploy.
The automaker says that circuits within the airbag control module could be damaged by electrical noise, which could cause the front airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners to activate. Dealers are going to repair cars by adding an electrical noise filter to the module. Owners will be notified by first class mail.
Toyota Public Affairs Manager Cindy Knight told Autoblog that there was one reported injury caused by the sudden deployment, but there have been no accidents or crashes. The company is currently preparing the parts for dealers now, and the component takes 90 minutes to two hours to install. "We don't believe there are any other affected models," said Knight.
