Reportedly subject to thousands of pounds in investment
The Appeal
The Toyota Corona is a nameplate steeped in the marque's history - synonymous with the Japanese brand and consistently celebrated for top-notch build quality. The standard saloon is more than desirable enough, but when have you last seen one of these? The Corona Pickup - really more of a Coupe Utility - blended the best of both worlds, with a generous open bay to the back and that familiar sophisticated profile to the front. These utilitarian Toyotas were never common in Britain, and survivors are vanishingly few.
This particular 1970 example is finished in blue and white and has clearly been well looked-after, with thousands of pounds spent over the course of ownership, including new brake drums amongst other work.
It's a remarkably unique classic - one that you're not likely to come across again. If you love a Japanese classic with a layer of exotica, this is the perfect opportunity. 1970 RT66 Toyota Corona Pickup 27.jpg6.66 MB
