:sunglasse :sunglasse :sunglasse Yeah! I wanna see more of these old school boys on this forum. Make this a good one:wink:

Hey FUR105,I just got the same kit recently myself :smile:
I'm hoping to find a nice pale yellow ? Not sure yet...
I do know it will have a 2 litre twin cam shoehorned in....:cool:
Should be a nice build,I like those wheels :cool: :cool:

cheers stump:aus:

why don't try dark chrome green.

i was considering british racing green....the jaguar colour...
dark blue....or purple...

some dark colours....i jus ont think light bright colours is gonna suit this car.

I would suggest a pastel blue colour, to make the fun-factor of the car stand out a bit, and to keep it in it's era...but the ultimate choice is up to you!

Please keep us updated! I m very happy somebody finally decides to build it !
It should look quite nice with those (I suppose aftermarket ) rims .

Ciao

wow i have been looking for ones of those forever. I love it, i cant wait to see it finished!:bigthumb:

I've seen this model before and I'm really interested in buying it(more than 15 pieces of it in our local hobbyshop)but what's the detail in this?Curbside or it has an engine?How detailed it is???

P.S:I think nice metalic blue is the best color but then it's up to you...A nice gloss black would be also nice...

Just some pics of the real car in black to help you decide...

P.S:The next generation Celica(Ta 23) looks awesome...It's a bit more curvy agresive...one of the best Celica's ever

I say go with a dark blue.

Sweet I love the old school I wish I could find models of the rx2/3 or 4 also a toyota starlet or old corolla

Great choice on the car. British Racing Green would be nice :D. That's the color I'm gonna paint my old school Skyline :icon16: .

Beautiful classic car, this one will be a joyful thread to fallow.
I like this one in yellow but since you are going for dark colours I vote for a dark blue or black.

LOL!!!

Cool and different! :smile:

Candy apple green

Candy apple green.
This was one that used to be in town here that looked awesome in that colour

That is tight ! man you got to paint it black with two thin lined silver strips up the center.

when to the local hobby shop today to try n decide on a colour...
was lookin at tamiyas racing green n british green....both looked very nice...
but i dont think the car will be green after all...
i think im jus gonna make it gloss black...still not too sure...:confused: :confused:
i think the black will make the chrome stand out more...im gonna hav chrome wheels, trimmings n far n back bar....
