Hi all Back in 1976 the best and worst decision I ever made was to take up the offer from Nalders Toyota Stawell Victoria to purchase the following car: 1974 JDM RT104-MQFG A Corona GT. 18RG Twin cam engine 5 speed F series Porsche type syncro Gear Box F series Diff LSD/Viscous 14 inch wheels with Yamaha radial tyres Top speed estimated 200 km/h. 5000km only travelled used as developmental assessment for suitability to import into Australia (NOT!).
Pictures worth 1000 words.
A very young man in 1976
