The mesh wheel at 11:14 looks like a stock wheel that came on Cressidas and Celicas from the early 80s here in the states. I have a set for daily driving on my AE86.
The wheels at 11:03 are from a Datsun 200B Aspen and the ones you've chosen are from an early Datsun 200B SX. I think Globe also made them, maybe they were called something like Chevrolet Turbines.
They shared the same 1.9 litre Holden Starfire 4 cylinder engine as the very last of the UC Sunbirds (1980 model) & the VC-VH 4 cylinder Commodores (VK Commodore as well in New Zealand). Toyota called them the 1X engine & it was used in the Corona sedans & wagons up until the XT130 which one of my aunties & uncles used to drive, the hatchback was fitted with the more powerful 2R Toyota engine & it wasn't regarded as a povvo pack like the sedans & wagons were. Their Starfire 4 cylinder powered Corona was o.k. to drive around Mullumbimby in NSW & that's about it, it was coupled to the 3L30 (Trimatic) transmission of all things. My other auntie & uncle had a 4 cylinder VH Commodore wagon which my uncle wished he never bought, it went very well downhill at Mt Warning but, they traded it in for a 1984 model Holden VK Commodore wagon which he was dudded with a bit, it was supposed to have a new engine fitted but it burned oil, it still went better than the 4 cylinder VH Commodore wagon, they needed the six after the 4 cylinder Commodore nearly not making it to Brisbane when my auntie was getting chemo done once a month when she had some cancerous tumours in her groin. My uncle from my area in Newcastle in NSW got dudded with a UC Sunbird which he bought from a Ford dealer, my grandfather was forever driving him to work in their Mazda 626 when the Sunbird was constantly returned to the Ford dealer, it was slightly used car which was a bit of a lemon back in the early 1980's. My point is that it was under a used car warranty & I think that a Holden dealer would've needed to fix it since they could get the parts for it, not the Ford dealer. That made my grandfather think that it wasn't a very good car, I know that you can't source the distributors brand new for that engine anymore, they still used ignition points whereas the blue 6 cylinder engines went electronic & they're still available aftermarket. It sounds facetious to some people but someone suggested bolting a 6 cylinder engine in to fix that problem of not being able to source parts for the Starfire 4 cylinder engine !
House and property tour soon?? Stacked container setup looks dope
I was hoping for some Corolla All-trac action.

Apart from flooding & getting soaked! Sometimes, it's good when it rains. I like the kinda fresh air smell 😂...
