Description

The "Toyopet Corona Hardtop" was introduced in 1965 as a coupe model for the "3rd generation Corona". It is the first domestically produced hardtop vehicle without a center pillar, and by increasing the rigidity of the front pillars, roof side rails, roof side frame, etc., Toyota managed to avoid a decrease in torsional rigidity.

The RT40 provided a good base to improve, and with the RT50, Toyota reduced the weight by 40kg, lowered the vehicle height, and reduced the tilt angle of the front and rear windows to reduce air resistance.

The interior is also elaborately designed, and the system that folds the rear seat back to expand the luggage space was adopted for the first time in a domestic car. The style of the "Corona Hardtop", which is based on a popular car and allows you to enjoy the atmosphere of a sports car at a reasonable price, has been well received and has been inherited by the later "Celica" as a "specialty car".

This individual is a hardtop model. Although the front grille has deteriorated over time, there is no paint deterioration or major corrosion on the body. The wheels are equipped with the "Yokohama almex" of the time. Regarding the interior, although the room light cover is out of stock and the floor mat is rubbed, the other parts are in the original condition, and the genuine wheel cover and spare tire are stored in the trunk.

As the vehicle has been stored indoors for many years, it requires full reconditioning to run. The combination of the "2R type" engine, which exerts 1500cc 70 horsepower on a vehicle weight of about 900kg, will show a light acceleration. The odometer points to 60,729 km.
