Post your sweetest secret alltrac pics here

This one was about a month ago with a buddies evo. The red can only be found if you know where and how to look at it in the right light. I just did a ton of research and lots of practice (mostly on the car) while learning how to do body work. I have about 4 months in that paint job between body work, paint and wetsand/buff. Maybe more.

That's a cool pic!! The same color scheme really works. I admire what you went through with that paint job! Seeing the pics of 2 inches of bondo made me cringe! I can only imagine how you felt!! I plan to do all the prep and metal work but there is a high line restoration company in town that does 60s Jags and Rolls that will paint it. Their work is second to none and I don't want to risk my noob skills on this car. It's too important!

Realized that I promised more pictures of our shooting here in Germany and forgot to post them. Sorry for the delay.

Thanks. If I did it all over again that is exactly how I would do it. Body work myself. Let them shoot the color and clear. Then wetsand/buff myself. Keep us updated with pics as you work through it.

Don't mean to thread jack or detour away from the main topic.

are those maybe from the Curren front end?

I personally took these picture in the link below. Looks like the same hood, blinkers, fenders, a modified grill but the lights have newer insides.

Wow, since I recently learned that alltracs have 5 lugs not regular celica 4 lugs. I wonder if that Corona is awd and or turbo.

The Corona and Curren were just different front ends for GTS Coupes. All Celica GTS' and Alltrac's were 5 lug, I'm not sure about the GT.

All the 2.0 and 2.2 liter T18 ( ST182, ST185, ST183, ST184) had 5x100 .The 1.6 liter ( AT180 ) had 4x100 from '89 till '91 and got 5x100 with the facelift in '92 .

The T20 Celicas ( AT200, ST202, ST205 ) had 5x100, no matter what engine they had.

Looks like the opposide to a picture I took of my CS some years ago.

Black car vs. white car
Sun vs. shadow
RC vs. CS
US vs. Europe
