All right guys and girls picked her up last week and since then Ive just been doing miner details to make her look pretty.

Shes an all original 1982 corolla Sedan hardtop SR5 with 130,xxx miles, Interiors are in good condition just needs a good shampoo and dust off, The engine bay is as stock as you can buy one.

Here how i picked her up.

to you have a pic of the gauges? Sr5 should have a volts and a oil gauge according to the factory service manuel. Also the fuel and coolant gauge are a magnetic type. Other then that it was really just a trim package on the liftbacks and hardtop coupes. They also got 185/70r 13 tires.

Good luck... one area to check carefully... the rear 1/4 panel where the frame separates the 2 rear side windows. This area can crack the sheet metal

The car is in pretty good condition, just some rust spots where the side window joins the body other than that I need a hood and really want to remove the huge bumpers for some jdm chrome ones.

Anybody knows where I can buy parts for these hardtops?

Kick myself everytime I see a thread like this. Had a chance to grab one at an auction a while back. Bidding got up to 160$ and I backed out. Most likely, the guy that got the car was a scrapper. Should have got it...

Also had to cut the front 2 brackets for the bumper to go in more.

And there the extra coils off the spring's.
