69' Corona

[brolla]

hey

just wondering if anyone can help with this;

 

my dad has a 1969 Corona in his garage and he's looking to sell it. he's had it for about 15 years, it's in good to fair condition with a little ding on one of the front corners, but mostly straight aside from that. does anyone know what sort of price these are fetching? or know of a forum or website to do with coronas?

 

cheers peter

Well condition and originality is everything with cars like this. I've seen a couple for sale over the last year or so, and they have struggled to make $1500.

 

Try on Toymods also.

And dare i say it.....ebay.

 

Just make sure you put a decent reserve on it.

although these things can be cool when restomodded.. they go for bugger all in average condition... $500 is about the best you can expect unless its overrated.

Where is it? I have a mate that just picked one up. He is looking for parts if your wanting to part it out?

It is a beautiful car. If you can't get a decent price, hold on it and keep it in good nick, the engine working and that. Things always come full circle, styles come and go. You never know, in a decade they could be seen as a classic car. If one of these were the vehicle of choice in a blockbuster film tomorrow, you'd get 10 grand for it! :D

I also have one of these in original condition.

Unfortunately the market for them as a classic isn't quite there yet.

Best you can hope for if in good condition with rego is $1000-$2000. No rego rust buckets go from free to $500 (i did get one for free).

 

Shame really, the Rt40 corona started toyota's repuation as a reliable passenger car.

If its an RT40 unfortunatly prices for these have not done much over the last 15 years. I've had a few, great to drive but overlooked by most people. The Corolla's & Crowns have a bigger following. Depending on condition and originality around $1000 - $2000. If it was the best one in existence still only worth about $6000 to the right buyer.

Get some pics posted, this will always help. Good luck!

there were two sold here recently for $1500 for the pair... I would have offered unspeakable things, but i think they wanted cash...

Mmm... RT55's the coolest toyotas ever made.

 

Toyota just went backwards after the 60's.
