This 1980 Toyota Corolla TE71 Packs a Big-Block 454 / 7.4-liter Chevy V8
0 comments Posted by alice at 8:06 PMAccording to the eBay seller, "with 13 inch tires it only goes about 65 [we'll assume he's talking about mph here] at 4000 rpms, but it gets there in about 4 seconds" and while driveable, the car needs some TLC to be road-worthy. The current bid on eBay is $3,251 but the reserve has not been met yet.
