'70 Toyota Celica

Description[]

The '70 Toyota Celica (Japanese: 七十トヨタセリカ) is a Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) casting portraying the GT-badged variation of the first generation Toyota Celica coupe. The GT variation was the flagship car of the Celica range, and the 1970 model was only sold in Japan, with exports starting in 1971. The Celica GT model was equipped with a Twin Cam 1600 cc 2t-G or a 2000 cc 18-RG engine. This casting is right-hand drive, as is standard for Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) Models.

Designer Jun Imai stated that if he were to build a Celica, it would look very similar to this casting.
