Not sure if it is too late for suggestions but chrome arms holding the front bumper could look neat and cover the hole. Maybe even painted instead of chrome. It is more of a US thing for cars of this period (and older) but I personally just like the look of it as if the bumper is held up by them. Something coming up from beneath like a Corvette C1 had.
11:41 is there a reason that you didn’t remove the engine from the bottom? Disconnect everything then drop the engine/subframe/suspension. I luv this project btw.
Mine switch was 22R , had to cut Cross member . Had to do it over again opt Ford 289 , oil pan should clear cross member , Chevy 350 definitely won't fit .
Back in early 1971 when my father worked for the Toyota manufacturing plant in Melbourne Australia, we got the first one of the line. It really turned heads back then.
Being a boomer who worked on cars in my teens, this was very nostalgic… particularly the simplicity and abundance of work space these classics had in the engine bay. This build is awesome. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍
My 74 Challenger had bumper guards that looked very similar to those. They're sitting in a box somewhere in the back of the garage. Whacked my knees on them one too many times. After 40 years I don't think I'm going to put them back on. Welcome to the 70's !
Yellow LED fog lamps (round obviously) in place of the mini turrets! (Bumperette shock absorber) I don’t see enough wrong with the paint to warrant a full repaint, tho. I’d keep it oLd SkOoL with the original paint…… as a sleeper. Great build, Sarah! Looks like it’ll be a lot of fun to drive!
Fogs yes, but not yellow or LED. they should be clear, period correct (or at least period correct looking) rectangular lights to match the front valance turn signals. I don't have a Celica to check the exact dimesions but I'm sure Hella would have had something of the correct size at that time. Unfortunately I think trimming the bumper is a forgone conclusion.
The wheels are the Daytona series, made by Carrol Shelby Inc in 1983-84. They had a 4-lug and a 5-lug variant, and were Shelby's first modular alloy wheels. I had them on my 83 Toyota pickup. Great wheels.
My wife had bought a new 1974 Toyota Celica ST. That car was so dependable. I hadn't seen one in many years until you decided to do your automotive magic, making it better than ever!!!
@@SarahnTuned Holy Cow. I got one of these back in '84 or 5. All I had to do was tow it out of the guy's front yard. All it needed was new brakes (which had some annoying Black Widow spiders camping out in them) and fluids. If I knew then, what I know now, I would never have sold it. I miss the mid '70s Japanese cars. They are such a blast to drive.
The front turn signals blend with the shape and "color" of the chrome bumper for a bit of a wraparound look. Painting it would ruin that. The signals would be odd blocks just sitting there.
Had these engines in my old rx-30 cressidas here in New Zealand, was only an 18-R though, first cressida was an auto and the second one was a 5 speed stick shift, first one got written off by a city bus rear ending it and the second I sold because of running issues, did make more money than I bought and put into it...
In 1976 I bought my first car, it was a 1974 white Toyota Celica ST. What a fun car it was in that era, small, nimble, I was driving it hard even though it was underpowered. I have fond memories of that car. I just can’t wait to see the completed project. 😃😃😃
Love this series! Also, mad props for your editing skills! The red jump at the beginning was choice. Also my wife is a fan of angel food cake. This episode was so fun. Thank you!
As for the bumper, if you don't mind having it rechromed, you could fill those indentations and cut the chrome heads off the bolts, and weld the bolts into the holes, and have a completely smooth bumper ( old school custom trick). I would either try to find some pre 73 bumper brackets, or JDM, which wouldn't have the bumper shocks ( do not cut or heat those), or just fab new ones. By filling the bolt holes, you could weld mount bolts anywhere you need them, for a fabricated bracket. Love everything about the project, and your videos! (fan for life). ✌️😊👍 Edit: Another bumper trick: to make the bumper fit the body closer, cut a short section out of the center, so the ends of the bumper don't extend past the fender. Works very nicely on cars with the bumper so well integrated into the design.
Very quick work to pull the entire power train. Besides the bumperettes, there's bound to be more surprises on a car from the 70s. Very excited to take the journey with you.
Color stays, wheels go as they’ll be worthless with the amount of power this will have. Need something twice as wide out back and there’s no options for 13” tires anymore.
Hi Sarah, love your content! I had a 1974 Toyota Corolla SR5, my first car handed down from my dad in 1982. Loved that car, very similar to the 1974 Celica. I purchased the exact same wheels for my corolla as you have on the Celica, I bought them from Pep Boys in 1982! I even had the same tires, BF Goodrich Radial T/A's! Sometimes wish I kept that car, my canyon racer!
15:55 be extremely careful if you cut those ends off, a lot of cars of that era had compression rods to absorb the impact, and some were gas charged. Cutting it could be the equivalent of setting off a bomb
I love how you throw those jokes and innuendos all the time when working, priceless!😂😍 Your plans for Celica seems really my cup of coffee! Any plans to steering? Add booster or rack maybe? Suberb job and great video as always! Cheers!
@@joemanco5864 I thought that they started in 73, then changed the size in 74. Then in 75 I know that they had the big ass bumpers. I had a 75. Would love to find one again!
Hey Sara, you can extend the boom of that hoist by undoing the bolt and pulling it out. Every hole you extend it lessens the weight you can lift, but should be fine for the engines you remove
My high school sweetheart’s grandmother had a Celica like this in the 1990s and was retired. Everything was well kept and like the Celica, everything was preserved from the 1970s. This was a fun and reliable car.
As far as bumperettes go these ones actually DO add to the look of the car. And the chrome is a big part of the classic look - not to mention its "sleeper" appeal.
I have a fancy idea for the bumperette cutout: Since you will probably use bigger brakes, how about brake cooling ducts there with hoses going to the brakes? Not sure if that would even be possible since a million things might be in the way of the hoses, but it would certainly look cool. Another cool option to hide the hole would be Cibie Oscar rally lights. Got a pair of those on my Fulvia Coupe, looks 🔥
I had an ST back in the early 80s, great little car and got tons of looks even back then. Your doing some great work ,nice shop now remember when you didn’t even have a vice.
For the front bumper you could weld a patch panel into the half moon (and weld up the bolt hole for the over-rider as well), then re-chrome the bumper. that would be the best outcome, but not the easiest or cheapest. Another option is you could check JP or Aus for a non US spec bumper.
Shave the bolts on the bumper. Weld in plates to eliminate the cut outs. Steel bumpers take on a whole new loo without bolt heads everywhere. That bumper has the styling to really become sleek with smooth line without pimples...
@@SarahnTuned Allthough I agree with Robby Jr., my main concern would be to keep the bumpers you have original and not modify them. I'd recommend just removing the bumperettes and leave the bumpers as they are until you can get a pair of the bumpers you want. Having said that. Your car, your call :)
This was my first car in 1976!! Exactly the same color. I learned about "love" in the passenger seat! ; ) Thank you very much for bringing back sweet memories!

They are Carroll Shelby Daytona wheels from the early 80's 14x6. I would use a Ford 8.8 underneath the Celica as they are relatively abundant and are more than capable of handling the HP from the Yota V8 easily. Plus the aftermarket there are tons of aftermarket support for the 8.8.
Another great video! I actually like that color.... Its different.. Not sure if there is any metallic in it but I think it would look great if it did and a bran new paint job.
Devise something custom to utilize the space, extra lights in the bumper bolt holes? Make a color matching filler? Like a doubler repair (A/C sheet metal). Some lights that utilize the bolt holes and fill that radius could be presentable. Or, gun ports! 🤣 It looks like it would look natural to the vehicle! 🤣 Great work, Sarah and Angel!
Chrome this 1974 we had chrome on our cars. Amazing shape for how old it is. My buddy had a 78 GT. Red with the trunk luggage rack. Way cool. And yes chrome.
I Love everything about this car. I had an orange 1978 Datsun 200SX with 5 speed. It has a black vinyl interior. Light as a feather and so fast. And very similar to this Toyota. So I support this build.
An interesting project! I had a -73 Celica and I changed the engine to a 2.0 twincam (18R-G). It's nice to follow this project, because it's a familiar car. 🙂
I'm from Australia, my mum bought a brand new 1972 Automatic, it didn't have those things on the bumpers and the engine was only a 1600cc, when we finally sold in the early 2000s, it still didn't have any visible rust and I'd be surprised if there was any hidden rust, I just watched your review on a previous episode, they were simple but well constructed cars, I cant wait to see it with the V8.
I had a '79 Corolla... It was a P.O.S. but I loved that car!! Engine was indestructible and ran and ran and ran... I wish I still had that car. Thanks for the video!
Love your videos, and really love your sense of humor. I would be laughing all day long working with you. That nutted in your hair peeing on the floor was hysterical. Keep up the great work and informative and funny videos.

I concur, chrome was part of what made the 70s cars look so good
I agree. Period correct and original is the best look for this baby.
I agree with you guys, even though I'm not a big fan of chrome. But for this car, chrome trim would be period correct.
Yes, the chrome is strong with this one.
The front turn signals blend with the shape and "color" of the chrome bumper for a bit of a wraparound look. Painting it would ruin that. The signals would be odd blocks just sitting there.
MANY THANKS FOR SHARING......
Probably gets said a lot but Sarah, you have great choice in music for your videos.
Had to stop the video at 10secs and tell you I loved the COD seeing red from jumping to high up reference. Classic!!!
I am sure someone will want that Celica engine. You make things seem easy, even though they may not be. Nice.

The tires mounted on the wheels were P175/70R13's.
These are 13x5.5’s

Another great video! I actually like that color.... Its different.. Not sure if there is any metallic in it but I think it would look great if it did and a bran new paint job.
There is a silver metal flake it in yeah
Best compliment for this talented lady : " you make my motor run, my motor run ..."
Maybe you could find some round lights to go in the bumper?
Devise something custom to utilize the space, extra lights in the bumper bolt holes? Make a color matching filler? Like a doubler repair (A/C sheet metal). Some lights that utilize the bolt holes and fill that radius could be presentable. Or, gun ports! 🤣 It looks like it would look natural to the vehicle! 🤣 Great work, Sarah and Angel!
