1972 Toyopet (Toyota) Corona SL1700 Two-door Hardtop - RT94

[@asadkala8649]

I truly respect people who keep their car unrestored. It gives you that feeling of the good old days and its kinda cool to own a car that has remained the same for such a long time. QOTD, maths was my favorite subject mostly because I was good at it

[@wasabicars]

Asad Kala Yes, I feel exactly the same, except about maths. :/

[@georgeandrews1307]

A friend in High school had about five of those....I thought they all disappeared. Thanks for the flashback.

[@wasabicars]

George Andrews Lol. I only know where one is. Happy to help, of course. ;-)

[@jasoncarpp7742]

I've always liked original, un-restored, survivors as well. This is a sweet looking Corona. My favourite subject in school was reading and writing. :)

[@wasabicars]

Jason Carpp Thanks Jason. :)

[@jasoncarpp7742]

WasabiCars You're welcome. I also like the colour. :)

[@mikeyjay1970]

Keep up the good work and the geography is also a cool. Knowing that the car's owner traveled a good distance or you went out of your way makes things all the more special.

[@wasabicars]

Mike Wilson Thanks Mike. Yes, I agree. :)

[@jordanmao2315]

absolute beauty, never seen these at any car show/meet

[@nyo_nyosupra1059]

Yeah Daniel it's funny that you show this car because here in the states in California I used to own I believe it was a 73 or 74 Toyota Corona it was a good car

[@wasabicars]

Roman Acuna Nice one, Roman. Thanks. ;-)

[@johnnysmile01]

i like this car very much

[@taunusv4power]

that rear looks so much diffetent to my old grandfather's 1973 sedan version, the single carburatour engine was the 6R, it had 7 lives like a cat, it was indestructable!! question of the day: it had to be computer class. the techer was really cool and i really enjoyed the use of several stuff 2013: one of my best years in my life.

[@wasabicars]

taunusv4power Yes, the rear on the 2-door looks really odd compared to the 4-door. Oh, computers. Me to. :)

[@ayansaeed9445]

The 2 door hitch back and the 4 door sedan are same from front but they completely different from back. I guess your grandfather had a 4 door sedan..

[@banpeinet]

Very nice corona. The shape reminds me of the Carina ta17 a bit. But they are probably built in the same era. Qotd: chemistry and science! Blowing up stuff and doing all sorts of experiments!

[@wasabicars]

banpeinet ;-)

[@LegionOfWeirdos]

Recess was my favorite part of school.

[@wasabicars]

Legion of Weirdos - with Christopher Mast ;-)

[@baldeaglearrage3450]

man that is one beauty! question of the day probably the shop classes I liked metal working never got to do wood working but I think I actually liked my Japanese classes the most though the teacher and the language and culture made it great. everything else made school rather annoying/miserable and is probably why i decided against continuing college other then sitting through a bunch of classes i didn't care about and failing because of that. it just became obvious that a degree wouldn't work due to American standards non-sense in my opinion. still not happy about that. other then gym,which I took weight training and was actually serious about getting muscle and staying/getting into shape i didn't like school honestly.

[@Takatakyong]

I have one of these. It was my first car.

[@laytonsri150]

Good video Dan, that's a nice car, shame about the damage on the back. QOTD- Rural science (gardening) that was my fave subject because it got us out of the classroom :) Keep up the good work Dan :)

[@wasabicars]

funbus For sure, out of the classroom was always an improvement. Probably why I liked manual arts. No desk in front of me.

[@laytonsri150]

WasabiCars Haha, exactly :)

[@HobbyTimeSeattle]

Keep the facts coming! Auto shop was my favorite! Go figure. :p

[@wasabicars]

Danny Carlson Thanks Danny. :)

[@BlackOakRR]

That chrome block on the rear end is a side marker in the U.S. market. or at least it's a side marker on my '73.

[@TheNisgaa]

Yikes, that shifter boot looks like it was SLIMED! 2:50 - 3:00

[@arjanweijer4526]

History!!!!!

[@UNRATEDGfx]

Beautiful!

[@wasabicars]

UNRATEDGfx Yes. Thanks. :)

[@MrRanvic]

Toyota legend. Mark2 corona

[@MANNY100123]

QOTD: Art of course! :3

[@wasabicars]

MANNY~EmberDim Haha! Of course. ;-)

[@01FozzyS]

QOTD: automotive class for me

[@wasabicars]

01FozzyS We never had that. Wish they would have though.

[@勇-h7w]

懐かしい、１７００．１９００もあった。アメ車みたいでカッコイイです。この色懐かしい。HTでミニマッスルカ…コロナで結束たちが違う、ＨＴ．ライン入り、マ…ク２とも違うあまり、取り上げられない３年ぐらいしか製造されてないから、私は好きです。イベント行かないから、昭和５４年以来見てないです。レア…です。

[@ethanlowe9369]

QOTD: I guess when I actually payed attention in secondary school (I'm from Ireland so the system is a little different), my favourite subject had to have been chemistry, mainly because the teacher was hot (oops shouldn't have said that LOL) but the subject itself was rather interesting as well, especially blowing stuff up

[@wasabicars]

Ethabix 115 You can say hot... assuming you've got pictures to back up your claims. Without peer review, it ain't science. ;-)

[@ethanlowe9369]

I may have one or two Dan, I'll have to check ;) she was also a biology teacher, figures! 😂

[@ToyotaCoronaIndonesia]

very nice

[@wasabicars]

Thank you :)

[@MrGGinblack]

A Beauty!

[@wasabicars]

G Grundmann For sure. :)

[@wilsonne6]

I have an RT81 Corona Which I would like to restore. Its a very nice car.

[@wasabicars]

Nice. Good luck with your restoration

[@ramonramos8815]

Este vehículo tenía 2 tubos redondos que sujetaban unos grandes parachoques??

[@wasabicars]

Estados Unidos solamente?

[@Hike_Bike_Explore]

History and geography.

[@GVK94]

qotd: English would be my fave subject I guess. But not when it comes to essays. Or actually Maths could also be my fave. Before letters where included into equations.

[@wasabicars]

Gideon Victor Haha. The maths kids are doing in Japan scares the hell out of me. 6th grade maths is beyond me. >_

[@wesleymatthew7542]

Hi, Where can i get one like this but left Handed. ?

[@wasabicars]

Sorry, I don't know. I'm Australian and I live in Japan. Both countries are right hand drive. So, perhaps USA

[@rebeccavickers780]

[@josespcuenca9426]

Lo siento, no tengo partes.

[@thatwolffe3802]

[@wasabicars]

ThatWolffe Haha! Me first. ;-)

[@gabrielmillien7439]

Next to it is a celica.

[@TimmmmmyD]

What does wasabi mean in your channel name? I know its a spice. So spicycars?

[@wasabicars]

TimmmmmyD Hi, Timmy. Wa (和) means "Japan", and sabi (錆) means "rust". Pretty clever, eh? ;-)

[@wasabicars]

***** Seems clean. Kinda too expensive for me. :/

[@tigergray1100]

No smog needed damn American rules

[@wasabicars]

I'm sure by mid/late 70's that stuff was required in Japan. What about those big US bumpers. Ouch

[@dsmmonster]

WasabiCars yes the big ugly big bumpers after 1976 they start using them.. I have a kp61 and ra29 and the have those ugly bumpers and the Japanese spec bumpers are extremely expensive here... and for smog regulations usually after 25 years old you don’t need emissions test any more.. but the exception it’s California it’s very very hard her the car has to be 1975 or older to be exempt for emissions if not it’s super hard to pass legally lol... hopefully you can come to Los angels the classic Japanese car culture it’s very strong here...
