This Toyota has been in Az pretty much its whole life and has been off the road since 92. An older couple owned it and it was towed behind an RV most of its life. No rot found on or under the body. Aprox 27k documented miles on the odometer.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION: 1979 Toyota SR5 Liftback _ Its been in AZ pretty much its whole life except when traveling behind an RV touring around the SW part of the US. Some great points about this car are: paint looks to be original and interior. Stick car / and has AC too, which blows, but not cold. It clearly has all the AC stuff under the hood. Possibly dealer installed, which for AZ was very common back in the 70s. Paint looks to be original, not 100% sure. It is dry and dull, but its old enamel paint, and could prob be wet sanded and buffed out. Im considering doing it to be honest. If I do Ill relist it. Clean clear Az title in hand. Check out the pics and more info below...thanks
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND, apparently some people who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules. So if you have under 10 feedbacks, Ill be emailing you if you bid to make sure you are legit, if we do please reply or we will cancel your bid. Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!! These cars are getting harder to find esp in this condition that are still affordable to most buyers.
DRIVETRAIN: the factory 4cyl and drivetrain are pretty much looks the way it left the dealer back in 79.Nothing looks to be missing. I hooked up an E-fuel pump under the hood to a small container of fuel, and after a few seconds of cranking it, it came to life and sat there and idled. So for now, so we can move it around, thats how we have it. It will need the gas tank cleaned out and lines flushed out at the very least to be a daily driver. Tires are in decent shape, and put on back n 2008. As mentioned above, the motor does run and sounds good. Oil is very clean. Havent touched the carb yet, it may need to be gone thru too. As is, Ive driven this car around the block and it drives great. Brakes and clutch feel good too. It stalled once of twice in the last few times Ive driven it, and took a little longer to start. But when its cold its easier to fire right up. Im going to see if the choke may not be opening which is my guess. Front disc brakes and brakes in general feel ok.
INTERIOR: take a look, this cars been in a garage for since the early 90s and other then some minor dryness and cracking, it is in pretty amazing shop inside. Factory gauges for the SR5 Pkg all appear to be working too. Some of the plastics need a good cleaning, but as is overall it would be fine for taking to the local car show and or event. Alot of it could prob be taken apart, restored and saved. Dont see much if anything missing, even the stock radio is still in place. The floors on the inside have stayed nice and dry and are solid and rot free. Rear wiper and window defroster too. Window tint is really old and peeling. I think it would look better if it had no tint actually. EXTERIOR:the body again is in pretty amazing shape. Paint appears to be original too. Ive noticed a few small dents on the body (which could prob be removed by Painless Dent repair). All the gaps etc look great too. Chrome on the bumpers in nice shape. Doors work great, glass looks good too. Some plastic trim on the dr side by the back 1/4 window cracked and aged. All the exterior lighting seems to be working well too.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal and very original for its age. Nice and dry and rust free under there. No mods or anything there, just nice stock and original. Front brakes are disc. Tires have alot of tread left, and where put on in 08 and barely used. 14" Aluminum Supra wheels shown in a few pics ARE OPTIONAL for an extra cost. (no tires) Check out ALL the pics below ----->

There you have it, probably The BEST represented TOYS ON EBAY ! Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you them We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars. People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks. Having as much as the original steel on a restored car speaks volumes. Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating. People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.
