This Corona is a restoration project. When I got it it was in bad shape. Holes for the wipers in the front in the wrong place, and in the back were also 2 wipers... 2 wipers, on the rear of a sedan..... eeeehhhhh... well, also the holes for Xray T2 chassis were to much to the right, the front bumper was cut to much, windows and lights were badly masked. Besides that, the guy used kilo's hotglue... It had a techracing dash with kilo's hotglue, lightbuckets with lots of hotglue, mirrors and license plates were glued on from the outside with lots of hotglue als also the Yokomo exhaust mount system was hotglued in. I got rid of most of the hotglue, but some of the paint came with it. So I cleaned al of the masking lines and redid those and the places were the paint came off with a brush. I repainted the lightbuckets. Cut some black vinyl to cover the holes from the wipers and fixed the front wipers. To finish it I put on some decals, a spoiler, full interiour with inner mirror and a roofrack from a Tundra. The rack was to wide so I narrowed it a centimeter. I'll make some nicer pics next week :) The rear bodyposts are weird now because it is on my TRF414, while it should be on my 415

Great resto from a badly-made shell - I love the street-car look. I'm very much into Japanese street cars, and this one is awesome.
