I was working as a Toyota technician when this car was new...oh the memories. I could still build that 2tc in my sleep. Looking forward to you getting this corolla up and running.

Epic video. Someone has what they think is trash and you convert to treasure. Keeping and teaching the tradition alive. Thank you

Granddad had the exact same car. I remember a couple of buddies and myself «borrowed» it and took it for a day of cruising. 14-15 years old we were then. We had a blast, what a day that was…..

"alright i'm done" well so are my speakers lol

We bought a brand new Toyota Corolla back in 1976 was one of the best cars we ever had. Good luck on repairing this jewel and enjoy it.

Thanks for the great content. Videos are great, not too long, not too short, but perfect length every time. You don't show every nut and bolt, but show us what we need, to understand the 'job'. Glad I found this channel.

Cool, two doors, corola. She is video documented, better than old paper documents for anyone who wants to buy her. Thank you for bringing her back to life.

Nice! My dream car is a Datsun wagon 510

Nice my late uncle had one of these years ago. Always wanted to build one in his honor

If you ever make merch, I'd pay good money for a stylized version of the dirt bike tug pulling the Corolla. You make do with what ya have and I'm glad to see you working on this old Corolla.

Nice work on this build. Corolla should be a ton of fun to drive, engine sounds great! Will be looking forward to what you do with this.

Got an old RAV4 5 speed and i managed to get a 3sgte in it the stock e250 js able to take the 260 hp andb i love seeing peoples reaction when rjey csnf cut me off and get gapped good luck brother it's a fwd version do it bro

I had one just like it, mine had the infamously good, reliable, economical Toyota 2TC 1600cc (1588cc or so in reality) engine. I drove the wheels off mine doing nothing but good maintenance regularly. I always thought a '75-'79 Corolla 2 door would make a GREAT scaled-down clone-copy of a 1967 Ford Mustang on the outside (in every way, taillights, fenders, bumpers and proportions scaled down) with a hot 302 under the hood and a 4pd. I still think someone doing that with one would make a really cool, different, interesting restomod in a video series. ;)

Great Video ! Can't Wait To See Finished Product ! 🙂🙂🙂🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯

❤❤❤❤ That is a beast you've created brother!! Love the sound!

Can’t wait to see the finished product!

ive been watching for a few months and saw you on the grind hard channel the other day and checked if you had any new videos. to my surprise there was one today! love the builds and so stoked for the corolla! when you did a burnout in the garage i audibly said " i fucking love this guy" haha cant wait to see more!

Thanks for your enthusiasm car post Malone.

Love your work mate, not many people capable of what you do at our age I have a very similar corolla to yours I’m about to put a 3t and 5 speed in and a 1975 hilux very similar to yours as well, I’m from Australia and there’s hardly any around here anymore, especially the hilux

Dude looking great man! Engine sounds awesome!

RR, very nice work on all of the planning, checking, measuring, cutting, modifying and fabricating so far on this project. We'd like to see you build a driveshaft safety hoop and do some upgrading/modifying to the rear suspension to go with that major upgrade in power you've got. If you watch the video again you'll see that even with those stock Corolla tires on the back, when you did the burnouts those poor little weak leaf springs and shocks had no choice but to let the tire(s) jump all over the place like hyper rabbits. If you CAN, being as the car is nice, has no rust and looks stock (sleeper city!), put ladder bars on the rearend, better/adjustable shocks and widen the stock rear wheels for wider tires that are all the way or at least mostly inside the fenders...and of course a full exhaust because cops, keeping the sleeper stealth and preserving your eardrums. ;)

Nice, I have a 72 Bluebird, it has been sitting, need to get on it.... for sure!

Buddy in highschool had one with a 4spd and staggered Centerlines. Lots of fun on the dirt roads!

This man is going place .great job

Dude this is awesome! Glad I found your channel!

I like the old corolla my dad had a 69 corolla during my childhood fun car

Awesome, and it's still powered by a Toyota. 👍

So talented.

just watched all the 73' hilux videos, and I'm really excited to see what will you do with this build!

Rad project, great channel! 🤘

Awesome video man love it

I’ve watched a few of your videos now. I guess I’ll subscribe 👍

Amigo ustéd es un chavo Super talentoso le mando fuertes bendiciones y para delante siempre.

Ha! I had the 4-door version of that Corolla. Amazing car.

In Puerto Rico this cars are gold and the original engine is money so you have a great car

Thanks for this

Dude awesome job love your work 👍 I’ve had old school Corolla’s and celica’s my whole life love’m can’t wait for the next video 👏👍

That’s a 2tc is a really popular motor in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 is a hart really really economic beast like you said budget bild it runs with nothing and hit good number with some work

That is gonna be the coolest car! I do see a diff swap in your near future however from either the anticipation of the higher power of that engine or a mandatory swap due to the grenade consequences shortly there after resulting from power of said engine. 😂

love your videos 😃

Our first family car was a Toyota Corolla. Was one of the best cars ever, could drive it from hell and gone. In the 2010 someone stole our corolla and we never found it again.

1st car i ever owned was a 77 (same as this) in a copper color(very similar to this) back in 1985......that was fucking cool bro

Hi.. from Australia 🇦🇺 ... i have a turbo 3rz in a ke70.. there is quite a few corollas here with 3rzs and very fast corollas at that.... 2 youtube channels from Australians with powerful 3rzs are @nuggetgarage and @tunagarage... Also for more firewall clearance on ke30-55s there is 1" inch gap between firewall and heater box so you can dent/push it in... or if you wanted to go to extremes you can move the whole heater assembly 60mm i think it is rearward in to the car more and still fits behind the dash... this is a jz firewall recessing mod that gets done.. I also will be fitting a 3rz to a ke10 that i have which has tubbed rear to fit 12" wide wheels If you are rebuilding a bottom end.. it would definitely be worth puting better conrods as they are the weakest part and prevent you going much past 500hp... there is a company here in Australia 🇦🇺 making billet blocks if you wanted to go upto 1500hp..😂😂 That diff will last ok.. but with the 1st 30 seconds of your test drive.. it will last 3 minutes 😂.. That 73 hilux you have, has the exact right width diff assembly for this corolla 😂... and you need to fit tramp bars to prevent the leave springs tramping... i used 65mmx12mm (2-1/2"×1/2" for Americans 😂) steel plate 300mm/1 foot long and welded it to the diff.. face it forward for traction or face it backwards for less traction..😂 and i had it bolted around the spring at the end of it which almost made it a solid arm and used the opposite end of the spring for "springing"

I always see it as a "belive" project.. since it looks like almost "impossible".. great job there brother..

Had the 2 door (KE55?) In 2000 as my 1st car right after I got my licence. 1.3 L auto. Zero power but hardly ever had to put fuel in it. Rusted out pretty badly.

very very cool!

you have 5.3 mil subs, no? just k. I thought you are super big channel! you will have 5.3 mil subs in no matter time.

Man, I feel like you'd be at home In Thailand, their car culture and absolute love for JDM cars is unrivaled next to Japan. Those classic Toyotas are pretty common over there, I thought i was special with a 2011 Sienna XLE AWD that i put a 3.5 inch lift on along with some other things😂😂 Needless to say i am a Toyota fan tho...cheers.

What got my attention firstly l am a Toyota fan boy because l own a 1997 Toyota Hilux with the 22R engine and you a very talented fabricator those engine and gearbox mounts also the sump excellent but my brother has a 1976 Toyota Corolla and doesn't appreciate what a great car they are he is meticulous about keeping it going and it is a low kilometre car about 170000 kilometres he gas a couple of crappy old British cars l gave them up in the 1970s

Here before 100k views. Thats a banger.

Awesome car and video, love Toyota😎😍 Daily drive a 1999 Corolla😎

i wanna buy a rwd corolla too once i have money. cheapest ones here are about 2k-3k euros.

awesome car indeed.

My Summer Car - Satsuma AMP

Pretty hard to kill an old Toyota T-series engine. Water pumps, oil-pressure switches and timing chains. About all that goes wrong with them. And they were a hemi engine, from memory...

Sweet man

Thumbs up on your work. How much power can the stock diff handle? Is a locking diff available for it?

I had built up a whole bunch of watch later videos buuuuut I guess I’m watching this first lol

what about the front? grill etc

bud, do your future knees a HUGE solid and build yourself a rolling fab/ welding table! cool project!

What would you do with this AWESOME project car?

The car is aesthetically pleasing, however, its powertrain could be improved for better performance.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

thats cool

17:27 10 degree tilt??? It has to be tilted? Or you want it to be tilted? If so why?

Stick a 4AGE or a 4AGZE motor in it, if you can afford the latter one..

we done with the Hilux?

A two door, Styling!

You are a fool to not build the 2tc these baby Hemis make damn good power. I am running a 3tc

PLEASE, can you change the back music? Trampet sound don't suit this project car...

Japanese quality

When will something be the End Of The World?

More work and LESS TALKING
