I would like to gather any information or knowledge available on the interchangeability of parts among Corona models and other Toyota models (e.g., engines, transmissions). If you know something or have heard of something worth investigating, please post here. Thanks.

Do you have anymore technical information you can provide with the photos?

nice pics 73gtv. brings back memories of my 1st ride. would you happen to have interior shots of the hardtop as well?
79corona, practically any R-series engine can fit under the hood of your 79. also the T-series engines will fit, you just need to replace front crossmember to that of the T-series variant.
Sorry about not having the interior Pictures, Its a small challenge to have come across these pictures. I actually forgot that I had these pictures. I was actually looking for pictures of my Stateside Corolla when I came across these negatives.
Which engine are you trying to install so that we can check and produce the material requested. Do you at least have your original car manual so that you have measurements?
Thanks, I guess I was think more of find stock parts that will work in a given car. But we could start another thread about mods that will work, like the ones you mentioned.

Ok, I promised that I would only submit info that may help. Here are the different engines that went into this chassis. Note the 19R is the 20 R in the USA.
Well I'm not trying to be constraining, but if you would start a thread on performance mods, that would be a better place for the V8, V6, and other discussions. I think people would benefit more from separating these discussions because some people are very interested in highly modifying their cars.

I thought that this would help due to the request for more technical material. This was the best that I could do on short notice. I'm only locked into the 1967-1983 year groups due to not paying much attention to many cars produced after those years. The days they stopped making the small sports coupe and started producing larger family cars. Thats when I stopped paying attention. Sorry. Performance mods would be sweet.
Guys, I moved your posts that seemed related to mods to the mods thread. Thanks for your support.
