This video is part of the #Classic_Celica series.
Deciding to buy a first edition Toyota Celica is only part of the leap to ownership, the huge hurdle would be to be able to detect the difference between each model and find a clean, rustfree example that is complete without any missing parts.

However, when you find a complete Celica, do not be overwhelmed and agree to the asking price. There are so many trim levels, that once Celica could be significantly higher just because it is a matching number car or has the soughtafter and rare original 18R engine. And throughout this video, I briefly talk about how to educate yourself on the various differences.
Back story: I knew I wanted to buy a 7177 Celica, when I first lied eyes on it at a local dealership in 2007. These cars are uncommon, hence why I had never seen one before, and back then I wasn't able to afford the asking prices. I occasionally went to see a few here and there that were for sale, but all needed work, some rusted, some without an engine, some in boxes. But when this olive green (Paint code: 630) became available in 2018, it was at the right price and the condition was outstanding for a 40+ year old car.
