1981 Toyota Celica GT Sunchaser. When was the last time you saw one if ever? These were converted by Griffith of Florida from 79 to 81 for Toyota.

I purchased it from the 2nd owner. He had it since 2000 and he got it from the first owner who lived in San Diego, Ca. The car has two targa tops, and original one and a homemade one. The original owner had the top fly off on the freeway and was crushed so he had an aftermarket one made. I purchased an original one once I got the car. The interior was redone by the second owner and is in good shape although the carpet could be replaced from fading. The car does need a little body work and paint. 

The car has many options for the car to include, AC which works but needs charged (because it is still R22 my mechanic saids it would be cheaper to convert it to R134 than to have it charged with the R22), Cruise control (doesn't currently work), Tilt wheel, and a tiltable drivers seat. I installed a Kenwood CD/Ipod control stereo, 4 new speakers, ADS 6 channel amp and a 12" Alpine sub. Sounds great driving down the freeway with the top down!
In Utah we have safety and emissions testing. When I got it inspected I had a complete tune up, O2 sensor,  and carb rebuild done. The carb is adjusted for high altitude elevation so you may have to adjust accordingly.

This is a fun little car that chances are you won't see another one around town. 

Shipping is sole responsibility of the purchaser. Once payment has cleared the vehicle will be available for pickup. Once vehicle has been picked up I will mail title and extra keys.

Unifor may establish local union for Toyota's Canadian plants

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Union tactics apparently translate across borders, as Canada's Unifor may take inspiration from the United Auto Workers' recent move at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, and establish a local for the Toyota factories in Cambridge and Woodstock.
Unifor last attempted to organize the workers at the two factories, which are responsible for production of the Toyota Corolla (above), RAV4 and Lexus RX back in April, but that vote was eventually delayed. According to that report, 3,000 of the two plants' 7,500 employees signed union cards, but that apparently wasn't enough for Unifor to force a vote.
Because of this, the union is looking at the local approach, like what the UAW is attempting with VW.

2013 Pikes Peak Hill Climb, Practice Day 4

Fri, 28 Jun 2013

The fourth and final practice day of the 91st Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is complete. Tomorrow everyone will make any last-minute adjustments and get their cars, their bits and bobs lined up in the pits for Sunday morning's this-time-it-counts run.
The Unlimited runners took on the top section of the course today, Sébastien Loeb and his big-mouth Peugeot acing the practice test again with a time of 2:11. Rhys Millen's team proved its got the engine issues of two days ago in the Hyundai PM580T sorted out, posting the next-best time at 2:27.16. The reason we had to dip all the way into the hundredths for his time is because he nipped Romain Dumas by just .31 of them, the Frenchman in the Norma M20FC PP running the course in 2:27.47. In fourth came the Frenchman in the monster Mini, Jean-Philippe Dayraut six seconds back at 2:33.
Time Attack competitors, also on the upper section, were led by Paul Dallenbach in the Hyundai Genesis Coupe with a time of 2:36, Porsche pilot Jeff Zwart crossing the line six seconds later at 2:42, fellow Porsche driver David Donner coming in another six seconds back at 2:48. Dallenbach has topped three of the four practice-day sessions, sliding into the second spot behind Donner only on Practice Day 2.

Toyota fears supplier pressure in Australia with GM pull out

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

With Ford and General Motors both announcing an end to production in Australia, the country's auto industry is in a bad way. With the exit of two big players, there's increased concern that a third Australian manufacturer, Toyota, will be forced out, as well.
"We are saddened to learn of GM Holden's decision. This will place unprecedented pressure on the local supplier network and our ability to build cars in Australia," Toyota Australia said in a statement. The GM closure of Holden production will be the direct end to 2,900 jobs, but will also force a dramatic reduction in the size of the country's supplier network, as there will simply be fewer cars to build.
In the same statement, Toyota Australia said it would work with suppliers and local government to figure out whether continuing production Down Under was even feasible. According to Automotive News, a representative for the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union told reporters it was "highly likely" that Toyota would also close up shop within the next few years.
