1979 Toyota Corolla KE55 2-Door Coupe. Rear-wheel drive. 1.3-litre 4K inline-4 petrol. 3-speed automatic. Indicating 93,399 kilometres. 4 seats. Carrara QLD.



Description

The KE55 Corolla coupe is one of those cars the market has quietly woken up to. The two-door body on Toyota's third-generation platform is clean and timeless, and the rear-wheel drive layout makes it a natural base for a build or a collector-grade survivor. This example is presented in original condition in gold metallic. The tan door cards are complete and original with chrome trim strips and factory window winders intact. CD player fitted. Owner's manual present. At 93,399km on the clock it has lived a quiet life.



The KE55 coupe in right-hand drive is increasingly sought-after. This is the car to restore, drive, or build.
