mcriver Posted March 21, 2012 Author Report Posted March 21, 2012 hello just wanted to know if my ke70 was worth anything, near showroom cond. sat in garage for most of its life , I'm the 2nd owner got it off my nan engine only has 25 000km on it, has all logbook and service history everything stock, no rust no damage if someone could help me thanks will put pic up if anyone is interested here is so pics of baby blue Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 Looks nice, Id estimate 2000-2500 selling price if you sold it. Not trying to be rude but the 33000 klm one was nicer. This looks like someone has used it more, despite less miles. The 33000klm one was a deceased estate of 2 very old and unroadworthy ladies, church on sundays deal. Quote
lildavo Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 It does look like a nice example of a standard KE70, but at the end of the day between 1980 and 1983 toyota made over 10 million of these cars world wide. They're hardly rare and when buying a 30 year old car you would be a fool to trust what it says on the speedometer. I replaced the dash in mine to put a tacho in and automatically wiped 160,000kms off the speedo... Honestly, one of the best things about KE70s is they're cheap and can be found anywhere and everywhere and are also a fantastic base to modify into something awesome. They're not exactly a rare commodity that it's worth spending a fortune on a Overrated example. It kinda gets to me when I see these for sale ads asking $3000+ for a stocker they probably grabbed out of some dudes yard for $200, preaching its their grandmas car they owned since new. I could never justify paying anymore than $3000 on a stock KE70 and it would have to be COMPLETELY rust free and straight to meet that $3k Judging by those pics I personally would value it around the $2k mark. Is there any rust in the spare wheel well? where the boot closes? rear guards? around fuel filler cap? Quote
