TonyK Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Excited to find this Aoshima '77 Celica because I used to own one. It's a right hand drive so I just darkened the windows and painted the body with Tamiya gloss aluminum. Found some 3d printed wheels that were similar to what I had and something out of my parts box to resemble center caps. Nothing special but it's not often I find a model of one of my cars from the past. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy grumpy Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Great looking Toyota, it kind of looks like a mini mustang. Even today they look contemporary . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classicgas Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Nice. A friend of mine had one back in the early 80s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bainford Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Good looking Celica. I had a bit of a thing for these in the 80s. Still a good looking car, and you captured the vibe nicely. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Nice Celica Tony and I know that feeling about being able to build a model of one of your previous owned 1:1 cars. I had a 81 Celica and it was a great car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
