Toyota : Corolla Sprinter

This auction is for my 1971 Toyota Corolla Sprinter affectionately known as "Kevin" and he is a restoration project that I started and, sadly, am not able to see through. There are no other Sprinters available for sale in North America that I've been able to find and they are exceedingly rare! Kevin is 99% complete although you can see from the pictures that I have already taken him mostly apart. The only piece that is missing is the carpet, which, unlike nearly every other part on these cars, is not unobtanium as there are reproductions available online. The original carpet was just too far gone though. Kevin's odometer is sitting at 33,483 miles although given the fact it's a 5 digit odometer I would hasten to say there's a chance that's been around once. I can't be certain though as he hasn't been driven in a fairly lengthy amount of time. That said, we changed the oil a couple of weeks ago on him and he fired right up -- although the carb is gunked up and the idle was running extremely high, so that will need to be worked on. Kevin also comes with 4 brand new tires and rolls easily, his engine runs, the transmission still works (although I would swap this out for a manual if it were my choice, a 2 speed automatic will not provide much joy to the end user) but please do not be under the impression you can just driven Kevin home. He will most definitely require transportation and significant work to be road-safe.
