Gday Connor

nice work you've done there on the hatchbacks.
.
I've just hada look on Toyodiy.com. 1985, 70series in Japan came with 2L-T, 3B and 13BT. You're a lucky chappy if you have a 13BT.

look forward to the build thread. post lots of photos, it helps us, help you.

Hi conner, that cruiser will look nice when its finished, the body isn't bad for an 85.

Nice work on the starlet!
