yup I could tell Mike grew up in the 🇵🇭🇵🇭Philippines🇵🇭🇵🇭 during the 80's...the Bosch horn, those Hella auxiliary brake lights, the Pioneer 8-track player, that mechanical fan in the passenger seating area. this car is so period correct I'm just nodding my head in approval to the amount of detail and love he put into this build...RESPECT bro..

I know that feeling. When I visited TAM in 2014 I stood watching the off-white 2000GT hardtop spinning around for quite some time drinking in all the details. And then I went and spent just as much time staring at the equally gorgeous and awesome (in my opinion) red Sport 800 on display near it. TAM is awesome and all car people should go there if they are able, there's so much to see

Absolutely loved this video!! Probably the best Corolla model Toyota has ever made to date! Yeah, Corolla is reliable, economical and the new ones are well made and quick, but nothing compares to this model. That's my opinion.

Nice ride! I miss my '74 SR5. It had a 2TC motor, headers, wild Isky cam, widened SR5 rims 13x5 out back and stock up front w/ beauty rings around, MSD, electric fuel pump, racing steering wheel, shortened shifter, polished valve cover, tachometer placed right over my steering wheel column, motor carriage painted gloss black. I miss her.😄
