yerp
if body is in good condition
and engine runs well
then it should be fine

dont know what model it is
but for the gt and the gts gotta check for different things here and there

if it is a gt model you have to be careful not to buy one that burns oil. the 1zzfe has problems with this and believe me i know. i have a 2000 celica gt that burns oil and i have worked at a toyota dealership for over 2 years and seen this problem in other 1zzfe engines.

my sister has a 2001 celica gts with the 2zzge engine and she doesnt burn any oil. and i know she neglects her car.

I think it is a GT but the engine is a z11 or something like that
