Irian Jaya: Almost bone stock Corolla KE70

No votes yet

This Corolla KE70 sedan appears to be bone stock...

...but if you look closer you can see some small modifications done to it:
- passenger side windshield wiper removed
- mismatching chrome mirrors
- bootlid spoiler
BTW: the weird windshield foil is quite common around Jayapura


Irian Jaya: Corolla Levin AE92 racer

On our way to the magnificent view over Jayapura on the highest mountain in the neighborhood I spotted this Corolla Levin AE92:

Not the supercharged GT-Z model, but at least it has a 4AGE heart beating under that bonnet.
The huge 16 inch wheels with a thin tirewall look a bit out of place here: the road conditions around Jayapura are quite bad so I reckon they won't survive long...


Irian Jaya: Corona and Corolla touge monsters

On the day of arrival I took a small stroll around the hotel area and encountered these two touge monsters!

On the left a Corona T120 sedan with ... rims and on the right a two door Corolla KE35 on RS Waranabe rims with a bit more wild modifications than the Corona.

I had the pleasure of seeing the Corolla pass by for work on another morning stroll and its raspy exhaust noise was as enjoyable as the looks of it.

Bali: immaculate Corolla KE70 passing by

No votes yet

Near where I spotted the Longchamped Familia I also saw a Corolla KE70 coming the opposite way. I turned around, followed it for a while hoping it would stop. But I gave up after a couple of kilometers and stopped for a drink. Luck turned and another immaculate Corolla KE70 came my way:

Since I has stopped I had all the time of the world to take a couple of snapshots of the KE70! :)

No idea what wheels it is on, but they surely match the oldskool rolla!

Japanese rustoseums (part twentyfour)

This time rusty J-tin from the old world: a Dutch Toyota Corolla KE20 crumbling away next to a B-road. The Corolla appears to be in a reasonable state, but since it has been parked there for years now I fear the worst. Unless someone pays a ridiculous amount of money the owners will leave it there till it has merged together with the soil...

I passed this rusty rolla many many times but never actually stopped to take a picture of it. The picture was taken by Dutch Toyota Club board-member Marco when he passed it. Since he already took the picture it saves me the trouble of taking my own. ;)
