you have a turning point year car...


do you have:

struts in front and a 4 link in back

or

dual A arms in front and leaf springs in the back?




if you have struts, celica drop springs from whiteline or dobson will work

if you have A arms cutting a coil or two off in front and blocks in the back work. and since its the same suspension as a truck (up to 78) you can do some fab work and get drop spindles to work up front, but it would not be a bolt in deal.

nice man, my first car was a 1977 corona and it looked just like yours it was off white with grey cloth interior hehe. I even dropped it with some old school rims and did a classic two tone paint job black and white with a kick ass audio set up with Boston acoustic speakers one 10" jl audio sub coupled with a 1500 watt quantum amp... Ended up selling for 750 with 300xxx miles on it. These cars kick ass!!
