Rising sun yellow: ’78 Toyota Celica Liftback
When the Celica was first introduced it was a huge success. It had a willing engine, nice gearbox and pleasant styling. In fact many people feel these Liftback versions were an interpretation of the Mustang fastback – gills and all. We’ve always liked them and keep a watchful eye for a good. solid example. Are they classics? Not really. Just nice, reliable, fun cars to have. Emphasis on the reliable. Actually, Japanese cars have a very loyal following and this one would cause quite a stir upon arrival. Not Toyota 2000 fuss-level mind you. The yellow paint helps draw you in. What we like about today’s offering, is its originality and condition. It is a 1-family owned car, 41,000 miles with a 5-speed transmission, GT equipment, power brakes and original owner documents. If you would like an interesting car to use as a daily driver and take to shows, click here for the eBay auction.
Car still for sale?
No, it has been quite some time since we featured that one. Thanks for reading! We like to feature Liftbacks/GTs when we see them.
