How rare are Gen 1 hatchbacks?

I hardly ever see any Gen 1 cars in my area but when I do they are all sedans. How rare are the hatchbacks these days?

There are still quite a few on the road, in fact around here there are probably more hatchbacks than trunk-equipped... they're kind of a college-student sort of car most of the time here.

Really? Wow...

Here, there's rarely any hatchbacks, and the sedans are usually a bit beaten.

Yeah, most of the Gen1 Cam's are pretty rough these days...the ones in the scrapyard where I work are horrifying.

My grandparents have a Gen 1 with some rust here and there. I'm trying my best keeping the rest at bay since these older toyota's rust like crazy once they start appearing. Lucky, most of the rust are holding back with the exception to the one by the roof and the firewall. Too bad there's hardly any Gen1 LE's with Sunroof. I'd love to grab one with the digital odometer. Those are SUPER rare to find in a Gen 1.

I think I did one Hatchback Gen1, an LE model here. It was a bit beaten up with rust and such.

Although, Between the Hatchback Gen1 Camry and the 1985-1988 Cressida SW model (sedans also), not sure what is more rare. On the other hand, somebody in the papers here are selling a '87 Cressida SW (Excel cond, all pwr) for $3,200..hmm...
