Toyota Publica 1974

This is a very rare car- toyota publica(aka 1000) KP30 coupe I am the 3rd owner from new. This model was not imported to NZ by toyota, the original owner purchased it from a small island while teaching in Nauru( some tiny republic country above Samoa and fiji etc)one year later he/she brought it back to NZ and then on sold it to the family i bought it off last year. It is in extremely good condition, it does have a few small dings in ti and some bastard stole the original petrol cap(hamilton creatures). the car has travelled 59000miles and is still on the original engine which has that distinct 2k clatter to it. Suspension is leaf sprung rear with machphearson strut fronts- brakes are drums all round- wheels are original 12 inch rims. head lights are ragbrig halogens with arctic bulbs. Interior is black and in great condition except for the crack in thedash pad. drives exremely well and to my knowledge is the only road legal kp30 coupe in NZ. Size wise- is narrower and shorter than a KE10 coupe. It weighs approxiamately 660kg(yep pretty damn light)
