That 1972 Toyota Celica was part of the first generation A20/A30 series. Expressing a rather sporty compact alternative, the hatchback design has a Japanese Mustang character about it. Armed with [dependable] four-cylinder engines such as the 1.6L 2T and the 2.0L 18R, it secured an exhilarating performance with equal fuel efficiency on one hand. On the other, it possessed responsive handling through a lightweight uni-body, independent suspension at the front and rear drive. The driver was treated to a cockpit and sport-like bucket seats, kind of like leather-like, affordable fun. The Celica was brimming with excitement and became an instant hit worldwide, solidifying Toyota’s name in the sporty coupe market.
