One of the better looking car designs as far as I am concerned, I read how they rust out but if you compare them to american cars of this era, I surely don't see any vega's, chevette's or pinto's on the road these days but I still see a few toyota's of that vintage around because they could go 3 to 5 hundred thousand miles and the others lucky to hit 150 thousand. Well atleast American cars are improving while toyota's are going the other way. Willys and IH could have competed but no longer made
@alanisgirl2010 Are You kidding? To this day they're still liked and sought after cars. They were very popular in california, I remember seeing lots of them around,and they're actually very well built, better than the new toyota's in that ti seemed tighter and made with a lot less cheap plastic.
Sucks living in the rust belt, I've only seen a few early 80's Japanese autos in the last few months. None from prior to '79. Seems to be an okay supply of 70's Detroit iron though. Indeed, in the long run, thick high-grade steel will trump quality engineering.
well i got mine from Virginia bought it at a junk yard and restored it but if your looking for one go to national auctions for cars they usually have one which ranges about 700-1800$ depending on where you go.
I have one at my house right now its orange like the general Lee all though im going to paint it black and i was also going to pick between a V8 or a v10 if it will fit not much room in it, its a good car but how the economy is right now keeping it a 4banger is a good idea if anyone gets a car like 76 celica dont give it away or sell it you will regret it.
i love this car so much hermm

Maybe but yeah it should be enough to buy a excellent condition but it also depends on where you get it.

@MrMetalking420 go for a lexus GS V8, it would fit it!!!! since it is a comp controled engine , it would make it a true tuner/musclecar hybrid!!!

I always thought these cars looked good...they almost resemble a 69-70 Mustang fastback.

@hoss861 well, initally the Japanese got their design cues from american cars, hence their resembelance.

That thing looks like a damn muscle car. Put a Chevy V8 in it and it'll be good to go.
