87 Corolla / Cressida

[Jim B]

I have a 87 Corolla fwd, 4 door sedan with 230,000 miles on it. My neighbor has a non-running 87 Cressida that he'll give me in exchange for hauling it away. Are there any parts from the Cressida that can be swapped into my Corolla? I basically want to strip anything from the Cressida that I can use either as spares or upgrades. I haven't measured it yet, but it looks like the front fenders, and bumper and the wheels will swap. Thanks for any info,

Jim.

wheels wont swap, they are 5 bolt, the cressida is a rwd and has a 7mg, i doubt much will swap, you could probably make a lip out of the front bumper tho

Thanks, how about the interior? Anything usable there?

Cressida is wider so the lip wont be a bolt on thing.

i think the cresta had electric seats, that and like Flashmn said its wider so if you did try any interior parts it would be a tight fit

I'lll give you a couple bucks and shipping for the factory stereo, if you wouldn't mind snagging it out of there for me!

Thanks,

That would be an awesome drift project.. Cressida with a 7MGTE or a 1JZGTE swap.

^Full restoration with a new engine, yes that would rock

is it 5spd if yes et it its a rare bird

try the seats in the corolla, the steering wheel might fit too

Man, if its a beaten up car, let it RIP! if you can restore it restore it...trust me our m/t cressida was PIMP!

There are absolutely no significant parts that I know of that will swap.
