Two left in the world we know about. This one came into my hands after the 1977 Singapore London to Sydney rally, class A won by Wes Nalder and Noel Richards in a Sprinter (3KB engine). the GT2000 Corona came into Australia as a developmental import by AMI Port Melbourne. Featured in Modern Motor as a centerfold in June 1974. Toyota petrol heads might like to know that in an era of BMW321's and LJ Torana's owning this hybrid was the best Q ship of all time. Top speed approaching 200 k and the acceleration coined the phrase outa sight (in 60 seconds) It was quick, the engine thrived on revs and 7000 came up without valve bounce or any flat topping. During the rally speeds of 160 kph were driven for hours at a time without a miss fire. The car is now 240,000 km old and only has a top overhaul with rings and big-end bearings replaced. Comps are still 175/174/155/170 out of 185. carbies were recently presented to Shaun Maloney of Carlton who charged a small fee to re-shaft and refurbish them. the engine starts and idles sweetly even after all these miles/k's
If you tell me how to post images I can do.
