TonyK Posted July 6, 2022 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
happy grumpy Posted July 6, 2022 Posted July 6, 2022 Great looking Toyota, it kind of looks like a mini mustang. Even today they look contemporary .
Classicgas Posted July 6, 2022 Posted July 6, 2022 Nice. A friend of mine had one back in the early 80s.
Bainford Posted July 7, 2022 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.
Mopar - D Posted July 8, 2022 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.
shoopdog Posted July 11, 2022 Posted July 11, 2022 Great looking build! I have this in my stash getting closer to build time.
