New Member: Old Guy

Post by sean.wies »

Hello all!
I have never been a real hard fast Toyota guy. I think it has changed. My wife and I have been married since 1994 and I remember her driving a blue RT63 (1972 Corona MK II) when we were dating. Her father still had the car sitting out back in his lot. been sitting for the last 8 years or so when he quit driving it. I have spent the last 9 weeks taking it apart and putting it back together with the new stuff. Car has 67,xxx miles and they are all documented thanks to an obsessive compulsive regarding maintenance and docs.
Car runs like a top.
New>>>
Brakes (pads, shoes, discs, and drums)
Carpet
Plug Wires
Plugs
Cap, Rotor, Points and Condenser
Stereo
Door Seals
Every Light Bulb in the darn thing
Tires

Instrument Cluster
Fuel Tank (rusted in the spare tire well)
Dash wiring harness
Steering Wheel
All interior trim.

Still need>>>

OEM Steering Wheel (have one from a 74 Corolla on it now.)
Any Ideas on parts ???
