1975 TOYOTA CELICA RA25 GT2000

This is my old girl " Ferocious ".
I searched for years to find a RA25 Celica that had everything I wanted. I had seen this perticular car posted on a Facebook group from a guy in Ireland about 2 years ago, and so I set off pestering him to sell me the car. It took 2 years of asking, but eventually he caved in and now she belongs to me.
I have owned the car for around 4 months now, and I could not be happier with her. Every time this car is outside, I get people coming over wanting to ask what it is, where its from, and people saying they have never seen one before. I even witnessed a man trip over his own dog when he spotted the car. I beleive there are only 3 RA25 Celicas in the UK. To my knowledge this is the only one currently on the road as another RA25 celica I was interested in has been stored away in the owners "Man Cave".
It is easy for people to get this car mixed up with the RA28 Celica, But they are styled quite differently, Differences include : Back lights, Front grill, Front bumper, Back Bumper, Bonnet, Dash Trim, Dash Board, Interior, Petrol filler cap location ( Bonus JDM points for anybody who can tell me where this is ), Badges, and a few other bits and pieces.
Anyway, I'll provide a little write up for those who want to know a little bit more about her. I hope you guys enjoy her as much as I do. I'll welcome any questions for anybody who has any.
I should also add, the car is not yet finished although it looks it. - So watch this space. I will also add some Interior shots or Detailing shots if there is enough interest for her in here

adjective: “ferocious”
savagely fierce, cruel, or violent.
In april 1973, Toyota released its first full production celica liftback - The RA25 GT2000.
It didn’t appear on the european markets and was only sold exclusively in japan between 1973 to 1975.
the later model [ ra28 ] was the version to be exported to the european market and eventually was sold in three flavours : the lt, st, and gt. To find an RA25 GT would mean to import directly from Japan.
The Toyota Celica RA25 was built upon the long-nose JDM TA22 Celica chassis and housed the 210 head 18-rg twin-cam engine.
“ferocious” consists of :
- 18-rg 1998 cc double over-head cam engine -
- twin dual throat 40mm mikuni solex carburettors -
- p51 close ratio 5 speed manual gearbox -
