  When I try and find things to show our readers on the Weekend, I troll around on Facebook to the various sites that are created by fellow car enthusiasts, Pages like the Brown Car Appreciation Society is a favorite of mine to discover truly jaw dropping Craigslist Listings, like this one. This is a 1979 Toyota Celica Supra, and I doubt there is a nicer example for sale anywhere in the country…    According to the very detailed listing:
  According to the very detailed listing: 
This is a Mark 1 Supra, totally unmolested, in remarkable condition. If you are looking, you know how rare it is to find a Mark 1 in top condition. This is a beautiful example of this generation. A true japanese grand touring car, a must see! This is the first year for the U.S Supra, meaning it has the 4M-E SOHC inline 6, with fuel injection. This is not your 4 cylinder Celica, for sure.
I purchased this car from an enthusiast who was downsizing his toy collection; unfortunately, it comes with no documentation, other than it is an Arizona car then to Texas; the car makes up the lack of documentation with it’s excellent condition. Paint needs to be seen , I believe it to be original. Dash is perfect under the custom dash pad, I chose to leave that on. I put new carpet in the car due to a couple of flaws. Seats have been re done but to a high quality standard. Rear compartment remains totally original, spare never on the ground. Mileage is likely 109K as the odometer now reads 9K. The car is a time capsule, regardless of the mileage. Nitpickers will find a couple of dings that the PDR did not address, and the drivers door latch closes hard. Other than that, no apologies.
Features on the car: Tilt wheel working, cold R-12 A/C, just re charged to blow cold! Power windows Original AM/FM MPX stereo radio, sounds amazing Analog Clock works! Pull out tonneau cover with hatchback New Michelins Oil just changed, ready to roll!
Car runs out extremely well, I put a new fuel pump on it, all else neat and tidy. Car is quick, not fast, but a great touring car that will be reliable, fun and an attention getter for sure! Needs to be driven more than I have time for. These cars offer great upside potential in value, a driveable classic. Why am I selling? The house rule is only one car at a time, and frankly, this car is so nice and sorted, I have bought another challenge, so this one has to go. No need to fire sale, but motivated just the same. Must be seen. Thanks!
