Hi there! I'm from peru and have a 1973 corona. I basically made a paint job, and put the engine into it's standard condition.

I would like to have some appreciations about my ride, also many advices to improve my corona into a better and good looking car.

I looked at your pic, very nice. I hope to do some paint touch up on the lower portions of mine soon. BTW, for those that don't know, you can actually purchase the original paint color for your car in spray cans here. They also have the paint for pro use as well, but being able to get the paint in spray cans for the hobbyist is great.

i'm thinking of make a motor swap with a 3SGE 2nd generation...
Does anybody knows the aproximate cost in USA? Here we import from japan used motors, and the cost is aorund $2000 aprox, but without transmission.
