1985 Toyota Celica GTS Convertible
Here's your chance to own a 2 owner, super low mileage (110K), unmolested, iconic, virtually rust-free classic for a bargain. It's white with white power top,automatic. GTS trim with fender flares, chin spoiler, Supra/Recaro style seats, rocker panels and NO trunk rack.Car also comes with the 3 piece parade boot (which is almost impossible to find-the original owner's Aunt made custom protectors for each piece) plus a custom Covercraft car cover. The wheels were refinished and look OUTSTANDING.
Car was bought from original owner in Massachusetts. It was garaged and never driven in the rain or snowby theoriginalnorpreviousownerand as such has not rotted.Pretty much everything works in the car-A/C blows cold, headlights both pop up, power windows, all gauges, seat lumbars, convertible top, the transmission shifts perfectly and is tight and has a brand new battery. It is a real turn key driver.
When last purchased and then registered in New York, we installed a new radiator, radiator hoses, thermostat, water pump, all coolant hoses and flushed out the system with distilled water and RMI-25. Also installed new ball joints and tie rods (Moog) and powder coated the wiper arms. The car does need tires (it can be driven as is) and most likely front struts (as there is a slight dull thud over bumps, included new in the box in the trunk). The power mirror adjustment bolts are broken; this is a common issue because Toyota used plastic bolts and could be corrected very easily with metal bolts (the motors DO work). The stereo is original and 1 speaker works, sometimes 2. It also has a minor oil leak (don't know where it is coming from). Just want to be want to be up front about any issues.
In short, its a 32 year old car that issuperstraight but because of age has shown some minor wrinkles. Its a driver, not a trailer queen, its meant to be enjoyed with the top down, its great on gas and about as reliable as they come.It also not cookie cutter, only about 4000 made in 1985 and not many survivors in this condition. Stock, rust-free Japanese steel is really desirable. It has a lot of personality and for not a lot of money.Thanks for your interest and feel free to reach out with questions.
