    I am selling my 1980 Toyota Corolla Liftback. I have 3 cars and have to sell it. I hope I can find someone that will appreciate it. The engine has yet to be broken in (2 hours running time, 10 mile traveled), electric fan has not yet been calibrated due to need of gauge cluster that I am trying to obtain. Seats are in very good condition, have been reupholstered but some stitching has come undone. Interior needs dash cap to finish up interior. This TE72 is in running condition. All registration is up to date, the car is in non-op status until it gets smogged. This is a california registered car. Everything is currently in my name.

    Location: San Diego, CA

    Asking Price: $1200 obo

    Phone Number: 619-888-2284

    I love these. I want and need this but you are too far away.

    Man I'm hoping this sells quick, there isn't much it needs to get on the road, and it has so much going for it. I sure hope it sells soon, I have an 2nd gen RX7 that I'm trying to work on and could use the funds.

    Thanks for the replies so far.

    I 'm wondering why there are no buyers in Cali.

    The funny thing is, those of use looking for cars in/near Cali find that all good cars are on the East Coast.

    Lovely car, good luck with the sale!

    Ain't it the truth. Took it for granted when I lived there. Didn't take it for granted when I was driving from Colorado to LA to get a crappy, beat up, 25 year old car on a salvage title.

    Still for sale.

    I'd love to drag home an old school 'rolla but have no room

  • Aug. 16, 2010 4:46 p.m. gryffinwings New Reader

    This is problem, either everyone is too far away or has no room... Right now I am thinking to possibly make a trade if anyone is interested. I'd be interested in 2nd Gen RX7 parts or a Toyota Truck.
