Hello guys, been a while since I been here, but recently acquired a 1967 toyota corona RT40 1500 DELUXE, its a project that I'm hopefully going to try and tackle, but unfortunately there's very little information I can find on the Web and also parts are hard to come by, they seem to be sellers from Australia that are selling service parts for it but no-one I can find in Britain, has anyone on here had any experience with this classic and anyone one know the best place to get parts from that I wont have to wait to come across the world, also any clubs that I can join to get more information about this sort of car, all help is greatly appreciated in advance.

Hello! If you're still up for it I'm doing the same thing here in Norway with a 65'. Let me know what parts you need and I'll help you find them. If you're patient with shipping then you should also hit up Ton Geul on Facebook, he's a dutchman that lives in Asia that runs a website named toyotaclassicparts. He even manufactures new parts like new dashboards and such if he cant find it and enough people want it.
I have the complete manual on the 2R engine aswell if you have any engine troubles. My local toyota dealership still has the parts catalogue if you need a parts number on things and I don't mind being a middle man.
There is also a small Facebook store named Toyota Heritage Parts Supplier that saved my ass when I couldnt find things, but he's based in Pakistan so shipping and communication takes time. I don't check in on the Forum often, so hope this keeps you going on your goal of keeping this amazing classic on the road!
If you end up needing help more often then I can give you my email in the future. I know it's a challenging car to find things for.

I'd look on Rockauto.com - they sold these in the US and RockAuto seems to get parts for just about any car ever.

Aye, they're 'great fun' to find parts for 😂
There is no answer to the question. It depends on what part you need. Sometimes eBay, Facebook, refurbished in the UK, Carlyn Dinkler in USA.

I second this, Carlyn is a godsend to us old toyota people. Sadly he's thinking of calling quits due to old age soon so I'm waiting for a package from him as we speak. He's also a living bible when it comes to what exact part you need for your very specific RT series toyota. Somehow forgot about him in my previous comment. |
