Hi guys this site is awesome! My names paul (sastoy) from Melbourne Australia. I thought first gen celicas were big over here but it looks like we a a small fish swimming in a big pond. I have owned three celicas in the past and i am on to my fourth now.
72 Ta22 LT,red, hot 2t motor, custom interior.
74 Ta22 LT,white, stock 2tg motor,built it for my wife as a engagement present so we could cruise together.
74 Ta22 ST, white, stock 2tb motor lots of GT Bits,to much rust to save her parted her out.
76 Ta23 ST, gold,my new addition to the family, current ride in the process of getting her to the standards some of you guys are at.
Hope to send some photos if i can figure out how to do it. :mrgreen:

Thanks guys, I will check out the quick guide and give it a go. I live in Heathmont near the Dandenong ranges. The Victoria Celica club were talking about heading up to Sydney for the Toyomods show up there but Dubbo could be a idea.
