Toyota 1000

[j.voodoo]

Hello people! I have just ben given a Toyota 1000 2 door 1973/4. it is in very very poor condition, I think I can repair the quite rotten front wings or maybe take a mould for fibreglass, but I need seals, all window rubbers, and basically any other panels that are not rotten! It belonged to an elderly chap who has had it for years, and has sadly let the poor thing fall into it's present state. I am really into drag racing, and was going to fit a pinto etc, but I like the car so much, I want to stick with the 1200 cc engine, and just have it looking standard but with a few subtle looks. The paintwork has been stripped to metal, and the seats are no problem to replace as I have a found a couple that look very similar. The top rail towards the front of the wings has corrossion, but I can repair this quite easily, many of my friends are saying I should scrap it, but as far as I know, these are very few and far, and I do not want to be responsible for 'losing ' another one! I live in Essex, and would be prepared to travel within the uk for the right parts to help sort out this poor ol' girl! Am I right in thinking that these were also called a KB 120? Any help will be greatly appreciated, Graham.
