Hi,
If you're going to drive this rare classic around the streets, then be very careful.
Your car has a unique front bumper that is particular to that model and you can't substitute it from another Celica (except another RA25 or a TA27).
Your bonnet is unique and so are the front fenders. Your rear light assembly is unique. You can only get these from another RA25 or a TA27. If pressed, you may be able to put in an RA28 light assembly, but the mounting points are different and you'll have to create a flap in the middle to let you fill the tank.
Your rear bumper bar is unique, but it can be changed with an RA28 rear bumper. The RA25 rear bumper has red refelctors in them, where as the RA28 doesn't. Other than that they're the same.
Parts for these cars come up on Yahoo Japan every now and then, but they aren't cheap. A bonnet went a year or so ago for over $600 and you're looking at the same or more for a rear light assembly in good nick. I have yet seen a set of fenders for sale for this model. There's a guy in the USA with an RA25 and he has been searching for a couple of years now for a set of fenders.
So, be very careful with your classic 'cos it is almost unrepairable in the event of a major ding, especially at the front or rear.
