well the owner of the te72 i was going to buy(see: Mad L33t purchase) flaked out on me and was being too shady for my tastes. so i said f\* him and bought something else. western union’d my downpayment a little over 25 minutes ago. will be picking it up in a few weeks. and now for the pics…its A 1973 “peanut” corolla and yes its an auto, and yes its completely stock, but w/50,760 original miles and 2 owners this is a GREAT candidate for to start my project. ![http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/035.jpg](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/035.jpg) ![http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/036-1.jpg](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/036-1.jpg) ![http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/039-1.jpg](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/039-1.jpg) ![http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/042.jpg](http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/viggenman/042.jpg) ---

Much better than the other car,need to ditch the auto though, I’m sure you can get a T50 to fit on there (pre '79) I would like to take a look at this thing when you get it here, PM me when it does. ---

I think you should have bought this…If anyone else is into old Toyotas, and wants to get into racing cheap, here’s your ticket, I bet you can get it CHEAP, Like 2g’s or less cheap.
