Hi Guys
I just picked up a '76 Corona MKII and finding it extremely difficult to get parts for it. Do you guys have any links or connections in Perth?

No I don't have any spares.
Best bet is find another and wreck it.

OK. Thanks for your help What colour is yours? and what were the original colours they were made in? Mine is being resprayed soon, I want to keep it original, but white is boring.

Well, I have a white one, a blue one, a metallic brown one and a gold one. They also came in silver, champagne (like a metallic silver/gold), metallic green, flat red and various yellows (a pale lemon yellow and a more poo colored yellow). There are probably other colors but that's all I can remember at the moment.

The white one is an absolute clumper. I was going to wreck it but another guy has claimed it to rebuild his one.
Here they all are.
Everyone has seen pics of the coupe.

They sure are! 16 x 6.5.
I did a 5 stud conversion years and years ago before everyone used up all the MS65 hubs on their late model shitheaps . Thankfully I have my stash.....

hmm, i'm thinking that maybe these would fit/look alright on my century... i'm sick of being careful of my hubcaps.. i've already chunked a fair bit out of the front lhs one... only the outside bits though.. the centrepeices are fine..
since i don't have the folding for a nice set of dish

hmm, $15 each is a bargain.. might check it out.. otherwise i'll just clean up and spray black my standard wheels, and just get some of those chrome surrounds from stupidcheap
17s dish... indeed it would, but i need the folding..
hey i know, maybe i could traffic something...
