In this post, we post and talk about cars that are forgotten, but amazing. I'll start with the Early generation Toyota Celicas

this is perhaps the most popular 70’s Japanese car in America after the Z.

I saw one this morning.
It was yellow, pristine and I fell in love.

But now, it’s sort of faded into the darkness :/

Triumph TR7 / TR8.
So British. And wedge-y.

I thought early Celicas were popular? I know they aren’t common but most people know/love them. Beautiful cars, either way. I have some nominations
Early generations of the Prelude:
Isuzu Impulse: There’s one in my neighborhood that’s been around for years. Lowered, and huge FMIC in the front, but I’ve never seen it moving. I think I’ve only seen one other in my life, and I don’t even really know if I actually saw it or not. Apparently the suspension was tuned by Lotus fwiw
Toyota Previa: Before the Sienna, there was this. RWD, and apparently capable of hectic skids m8

427 Biscayne. No, it’s not an Impala. Or a Caprice.

In the unlikely event that I would get one, I’d be conflicted between keeping it all stock or going restomod and stuffing a 2ZZ engine in it, dropping it on an adjustable coilover suspension and autocrossing the living daylight out of it...

I would make it into a resto mod, that way you have the cool classic looks but modern drivability/reliability.

that’s a great angle in the black Celica shot. Very nice lines.
