1981 Toyota Corolla TE72

Its a low budget project with lots of potential. Bought this car from the original owner who had the car sitting for 10 years before he decided to sell it to me. A 6 puck racing clutch and a Weber Carb are in the works and with some luck it will be on the track soon. UPDATE: Finally installed the BRD 6 puck clutch kit, weber 32/36 carburetor, headers and flowmaster exhaust. I am proud to say that it performed excellent on the Streets of Willow Springs Track. I pushed this Corolla past its limits and it held together just fine but I wish I had upgraded the cooling system because I did have a minor overheating issue which was caused by the stock radiator. A better cooling system and suspension upgrades are in the works. Viva Team TKO !
