turbo Grant Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Loads of them came with a 5speed box. But not seen the 5 speeds badge before. Looks like someone's just stick it on along with the spoiler. Pretty much the same as mine but with the key on the other side of boot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmymac101 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Pop to or email your local toyota dealership and see if they can shed on light on it Looks good though what would you do to it ? James Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 Best part, 365€ xD first thing to change would be the wheels, with the ones on my avatar, then a 2E swap with bike carbs, 2E's are cheap in portugal, 200 gets you a full engine with gearbox xD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'm buying it this sunday, any common rust spots I should look for? There are some dents on the body but that is easily fixed, the engine's condition isn't important as it'll be swapped, anything else I should be aware? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mccartney11 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 for rust check pockets, sills, chassis leg under battery tray. C pillars and around boot hinges, boot floor, check floor and make sure doors are rust free and hinges aren't rusty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mccartney11 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 early spec clocks and door cards in a late spec car...so that may have been changed...cant see too much just check what i mentioned above for 350 tho its a good price:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 So, I got it, the engine runs fine, it has some issues though, driver's side door is hopeless (I can get them cheap like 20€), rear C pillar has rust on the inside, engine bay has no rust whatsoever and finally, the one that worries me the most, the rust under the rear brake light... to the pictures! The left door that is going to be swapped: What worries me the most: And that's it, there's other little thing like, need to source a front bumper and grill and fix some dents... The engine bay is really tidy, I'm surprised there's no rust here... That is all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
