1972 Celica RA21

[Oracles]

Just got this all original under 65000 miles one owner car, working AC and mint dash board.. Went to Utah to buy it and had it shipped back home.

plans are to get it really cleaned up and to get the seats redone for now,
then move on to 4AGZE which I already have along with 6 speed tranny,nice wheels and suspension work.

Thanks Salmang, Optimuss

wasif,

It’s a matter of preference for me now, I grew up with these cars and it’s nostalgia for me. Owning HEMI here is like having a Suzuki in Pakistan .. everyone got one

That is not the point sir, owning a HEMI or a 60s Mustang means pure muscle, Japanese Muscle? well these two words never go along. The sound of an American low-revving push-rod V8 cannot be beaten by anything.

Good buy though, great looking car.

You obviously didn’t read my reply with care, nowhere have I compared American muscles cars with Japanese because there isn’t any comparison between them. It’s a matter of preference for me. You’d be surprised to learn that there are Japanese Muscles cars out there and I am in the process in building one. Now I would aggress with you that 60’s Mustangs and Chevy’s muscles cars are awesome and I happen to have one tucked away under covers waiting to be restored.

Oracles: My reply was in 'context', I never said that you compared them.

Congrats sir on getting this beauty. Thats my dream ride (wid a 20v 4age BT with ITB's under its hood ) and I'll get one InshaAllah after an year or so.

Btw I also like these Japanese muscles as compared to Americans (i think everyone has his own taste and preference).

Thank you azkhan,

I wanted a clean unmolested flat tail light Celica and have been on the hunt for few years.

Good luck in finding one for yourself.
