Wow, that Yota's been kept in impeccable condition. I liked those old ones, their front grilles had a muscle-car'ish look to them, with the paired headlights on either side and a meaner look than most other imports back in the day. The long hood and roofline also vaguely resemble muscle-cars of that era, it's rather Mustang-like.
I wish my Charger was in that good a shape to begin with! Looks like you have almost nothing to restore...

Are you planning to restore it to original specs or build it up?

Back in the 90's I had a 71. Also had a 74 hilux. Been looking to get another of each ever since. That one is a nice speciment of the breed

Wow, I haven't seen one that clean in a loooong time. Nice car. Good reliable daily driver too, once it's done.

Looks perfect, I bet you got it for a song too!
Lets see the interior and engine bay! What about rust on the rear 1/4 panels? Any?
SIK car!

I'm guessing the paint color is Orange Metallic Toyota #337 or Orange Toyota # 352. Either way, It does appear to be original
