SR5 Hatchback 5 Speed with COLD AC and 32k miles VIDEO TE51

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at one very cool 1979 Toyota Corolla SR5 - TE5I. This is the cool hatchback model that looks fantastic. Let’s check it out!

Rarity

In the 70’s and 80’s Corollas were everywhere. They were (are) extremely reliable but time has taken its toll on those great numbers and few of these Gen 4 models remain. This Corolla is an excellent example of a dry weather California car.

Treated to a recent respray, this rust free Hot Hatch looks sharp and runs excellently. Hit the RADWOOD shows sporting the JDM look while chillin in your ice cold air conditioning? Yeah, that’s cruising cool.

Exterior

Nice recent respray in OEM Blue looks good from every angle.

• Alloy wheels

• Flares

• Wing Mirrors

• Front Spoiler

• Nice chrome and trim

Engine

• 1.6L stock engine runs well

• Stock OEM exhaust system

Transmission

• 5 Speed Manual transmission shifts nice, very clean

Interior

• OEM seats could use reupholstery due to dry weather aging. Covers in place

• Nice dash, gauges

• Odometer 32620

• Windshield has blemishes (see photos and video)

• AM FM Cassette.

• Cold Air Conditioning

• Some would say it needs a headliner

Documentation

The title has been lost. VIN and license plates are clean and clear at CA DMV with no records in the system. This is normal with cars that have experienced a long slumber. Bill of Sale is provided.

Inspection

Please come inspect this great car before the listing ends. We are happy to meet you and show her off. The details contained in this listing are based on our review of the vehicle and any errors or omissions are unintentional. Please keep in mind that this is a 44 year old used car. It will need periodic attention just as any classic does. It is not a new car and will not be fresh and perfect like that new soul sucking Camry your Aunt Betty drives. If that’s what you are after, this is not your era, nor your car so please move on to something boring.
