Jason: you might want to check that some of the important hoses havn't gone brittle (e.g. top/bottom radiator hoses, fuel-in, heater).

also, its likely that the heater core under that dash is mildly clogged up - and the temp-control tap - fortunately under the bonnet - will probably leak upon use. You can adapt landcruiser heater taps for celica use - requires a new mounting hole and re-routing of one hose.

there's used to be an old lady near me who drove around at slow speed in a well looiked after blue mid 70's celica that looked 100% factory - i suppose it got sold at a some deceased estate auction ... ;(

The car was in Kenmore (which is nearly ipswich) - i haven't seen a while now (it's home still looks maintained, but i never see lights or the car) - tho i haven't been looking for it (my RA40 keeps me kinda busy). It was a blue RA23, coupe, factory rims, intact chrome, bonnet vent-inserts intact...

looked a like a genuine "owned by old lady, driven once-a-month on sundays, one owner, original paint, ..."
