so awesome.... I love me some first gen Celicas

I'll bet the RA harnesses are pretty similar to the RT (Corona) harnesses. They always tend to develop electrical issues. I may have to just redo the ones in my buddy's '79 and my daughter's '81. Thomas' thread is a good motivator .

I think I've figured out what I want to do for wheels on this car...

I still think 15's are just a bit big on a 1st gen Celica. So, gonna try and find a set of these early 70s stock Celica wheels, and widen em to 9 or 10". Deep old school 13 or 14" steelies



Pretty sure they'd look sick with meaty lettered tires with a slight stretch.

Finished prepping the engine bay. Hit it with some primer and tried out this red that I guess I'll be going with. Looks sorta orange in the pictures, but it's pure red.

Nice progress updates Thomas. I guess I just haven't been paying attention but how long have you been in that garage now? I'm jealous.

[Thomas]

Engine is back in!

Thomas, buy my 6.7", 2.93 Richmond ring & pinion for that bad boy!
