76 Supra

[supRA29]

Yea I know they didn't make supras in 76, but I've got the next best thing. 1976 Celica liftback(vin#'s begin w/ RA29). The reason I'm on this forum is because I believe a 1jz is going into it in the near future. I can't wait to crush some winged civics :evil2:

[supraman7mgte]

that would be such a cool sleeper

 

[sid]

welcome...very nice. I'd go 7m personally.

 

[buckshotglass]

Very cool. Welcome. We had a green '76.
Build thread + pics soon please.

The 7mgte has been done and requires only slight adjustment to the steering as well as some weight transfer. I've seen the 2jz in a 72 celica which have a shorter engine bay. I like the 1jz especially with the soarer motors floating around, but plans might change once I get some info on dimensions. I need to snap some more pics but this is what I've got.

Crazy thing is with a little gas in the carb this thing will start up.To put a 7m in you need the bottom half of the 5m mounts and 7m tops, so I'm thinkin(with no previous expirience w/ these mounts or motors) I can do some adaptations adding the 5m bottoms with the 1jz tops.

Ah, memories. I learned to drive on a '76 Celica.

Not well. :icon_conf

I hope you mean Mk1 Celica, heh.




I've been wanting one of those for awhile now, came close a couple of times, but timing ad money hate me apparently.

Good luck w/ your Celi!

 

[gtsfirefighter]

That's one of my favorite Celica bodystyles. I'm partial to 85 since I used to own a GT-S. Looking forward to seeing how the swap goes.

 

[GrimJack]

Nice! That was my favorite car until the Mk2 Supra was released in '82.

Wasn't even remotely into Supras or cars for that matter, back when I had mine :3d_frown:

'76 Celica GT Liftback... my first car :love:

Mine was the same color too, beige, but with mag wheels.

 

[Clint]

Welcome! And my older brother first car was a 76 celica liftback! Awesome car I wish he didnt sell it!

 

[Boost Lee]

Sorry. :biglaugh: That car is absolute sex. I had to play around with it a little bit in MS Paint. :naughty: About that wing.......:icon_conf, I just wanted to experiment...not bad for a 5 minute chop.

6M, 7M-GE even, GTE (even better), or a 2JZ.

No hatrid with a 1J...but with a car like that....either go big, or go home.
