    IMO kung "restoration" to orig....dapat stock color ang bagay.

    I would avoid dark colors (like black) kasi madaling makita ang alikabok (namumuti) so mahirap imaintain ang "clean-look". Pero if don't mind it, kool color din ang black, dark blue (o midnight blue)....

    my 2 cents.

    The Corona Silver Edition was a great car during its time. It's very reliable, sturdy and spacious. Plus the bumpers are made of rubber; they don't get dented at all.

    I actually have a Silver Edition myself and plan to restore it sometime. Once I do this, I plan an engine change. Although the original powerplant is very efficient, it lacks power for its size and weight. Perhaps I will install a 4A-FE engine (same as the Corolla GLi) and a 5-speed gearbox. On the inside, I will re-uphoster the seats, install a better sound system and have the aircon checked. On the outside, I plan to paint it bright maroon and add 14 or 15-inch wheels.

    Considering that this is a Toyota, parts will not be very hard to find. If your car has rust, body repair will be essential. Then let it have a scrape-to-metal repaint job. Also have your engine diagnosed and your chassis checked. Then you'll have a good ride in your car.

    Ako, type ko silver metallic diyan. Simple pero rock. Pero okay din yung original na brown or blue na metallic.

    Grabe hirap ng dark colors, sobrang alaga ang kailangan kasi kitang kita ang swirl marks. Take it from me, kakainis!

    Good luck pre. Magkakaroon ng old skool EB sa toyotaclub in the next months so register ka dun. May 2 or 3 na naka-silver ed dun and at marami pang old skool rides. Pero kung meron din sa tsikot, game!

    Salamat ha. Oo pero kakaloko yan, pag natingnan mo "in the flesh"; dami swirl marks, wala pang upholstery. Grabe tagaktak ang wispa ko kahit naka AC.

    Sige pre, kita tayo dun sa board at sa mga EB. :D
