1985 AE86 Toyota Corolla Trueno Race Car SCCA IT/B

TRD show car, TRD catalog car, GRM feature article,TRD and SCCA executive personal ride, and my long time race car. This car was first in class at the inaugural SCCA “IT Fest” at Heartland park in Kansas. The car is in the early 90’s TRD catalog on pages 7, 37 & 40 and was featured in Grassroots Motorsports in the early 90’s. Toyota also did a brief story last year on this and my other uncommon Toyotas here “toyotadriverseat.com/associates”. I have the original ad and bill of sale from when I bought the car — then maintained by RallyeSport outside Denver, and owned by Nick Craw who is currently the FIA (F1/WRC) Senate President. I also have the original log book with races from West coast to the Mid-West and driven by SCCA leadership including Doug Reid and Bob Anderson. I’ve had it more than 20 years, and its fresh and ready to race at minimum weight (original IT/A class weight was set with this car). Car is now in classed SCCA ITB at a weight where it should do very well. Recently refreshed with cage updates (only a track day on it since), fresh paint throughout and a new Sparco Evo2 seat. Some items are not listed below - probably forgot some, but the full configuration and setup will be provided to the new owner.My new home doesn’t have room for all the toys, so I’m reluctantly going to part with the the Corolla. Buy it to race it, drift it, because you always wanted one, or for its history, but it won’t disappoint -I've been building and racing Toyotas for 25+ years and you could never recreate this anywhere near the price - A classic you can enjoy today.

Chassis

• Chassis is straight and damage free. I originally bought the car with crash damage. I fully repaired it, and successfully campaigned it, winning my first race entry and many thereafter. I subsequently had another “incident” and replaced the main tub in 1993 with a straight chassis and swapped over all the race parts and much of the sheet metal, instantly dropping my average lap times 2 seconds and keeping me in the lead pack for more than 15 years at Mid-west SCCA events.
