- In this weeks video, we dive into the headache of maintaining a 58 year old import car in America. We struggle to find parts, but make the best of an old beat up Toyota to get it back on the road! After it’s back together, halfway, we take it for a drive in the mountains!

As a teenager, my first car was a 1967 Toyota Corona that looked just like yours only mine was white. I purchased an oil filter adaptor from J. C. Wittney that replaces the canister oil filter with a regular screw-on oil filter. Mine had a high-speed miss that I corrected when I replaced the points with a solid-state ignition. I loved the car and kept it for many years but it was horrible on snow or ice as the rear end was so light. That hole in the trunk is from the missing gas tank. I still have my repair manual for it.
My dad used have 1969 corona. It was a nice car.
I love these cars!
Worked on those Coronas back in the 70s. Good Rule for All Drum Brakes: Never adjust before removing drum and inspecting wheel cylinders, springs/hold down pins, shoe thickness, etc.

Great tip!
Super ❤️ this car AND this video! Growing up in Australia these Toyotas were everywhere, 20-25 years after they were made most of them were still on the road. Then one day there wern’t so many. Legend has it the Japanese came here and took a lot of them back to Japan, because their original Coronas were long gone.
That’s interesting! I know they are a rare sight here in the states!
All l can say any Toyota are built do well l have a 26 year old Toyota hilux and it runs so so well l bought it running and registered and l am slowly fixing it up so l will be following your chanel on this project l can't help you with an oil filter l live in Australia also your panel beating skills worked pity about the damage on your Toyota Corona these were the first Toyotas l ever saw back in 1965
I appreciate the support and I also own a few Toyota trucks! Everything Toyota makes is so robust and reliable!
@@redlineranch. Reliability is a luxury
These cars of old, the sheetmetal is stronger than todays cars
thats for sure!
Aww, I wanted to see the drive!
now you have that boot lid fitting better you could buy a couple of hammers and dolly's and try getting them back in shape. nice video.
Great idea!
Thank you very much for the reply. Regards
No worries!
Friend of mine restored a 68 2 door a few years ago. Had some guy turn in front of him on a residential street and he hit him at 15mph. Totaled the car. The hood nearly went through the windshield. At a higher speed its scary to think what would happen! Luckily he was ok and his passenger just banged his knee on the dash.
that is scary!
@@redlineranch.a good reason to fix the hood latch.

Do you know these cars are getting EXPENSIVE and hard to find so why dont you fix it properly and make some bucks from it
Ryco R2205P oil filter on E-bay.
Thanks! I was looking for days, I see it says it’s for a 1500 engine, I wonder if the filter housing I have is off a different engine, I have the 1900
@@redlineranch. I don't think those Coronas ever had 1900 motors. They certainly didn't in Australia but might have over there. There were a lot of them sold here.
@@craigjames9155 yeah, here in the states, they came with the 1.9 3R, the back has a 1900 badge even! It must’ve been a usdm market thing.
Very nice Toyota Corona Toyopet 1965 3R engine 1.9 liter engine. In the Phils. 🇵🇭Toyopet is 2R engine 1.5 liter engine. Its colection toyota car. Try to repair the body rusty part.👍
Thanks for sharing
Its a old toyota it would have ran fine for another 100000 miles on that oil.
I know, they are invincible!
hello..... I have a Toyota Corona 1966 but it is not running fast . the spead is slow but it approach maximum speed 50 miles when the car is over heated. please suggest what to do
... Thank you
It sounds like the carburetor might need cleaned, or possibly the ignition components, like the distributor are having issues.
Is it possible to buy a replacement tank that will actually fit? Or is that too much to hope for?
I’ve been keeping my eye out, but I fear that I won’t be able to find one. I might end up making a fuel tank that drops into the original location, but for now I was just glad to be able to drive it!
Looks like the 3r motor has the wrong oil filter adapter my 69 and all the other corona's ive owned had a round oil filter adapater like the filter you bought
Any idea what housing this is from?
No but i know someone who is the only part vendor for these cars and im sure will have the part for you or since yours is a early corona may use that oval housing send me your email
Nice classic Toyota! How many miles on it?
36k miles! But sadly the speedometer stopped working, so it’s no longer counting
i need various parts of this car, can you help me?
🤘🏼
How do you get away with driving unregistered cars around.
