An interesting site with stories and photos of American

fields, garages and just about anywhere else they
can be. Though some stories are rather sad to read
about because of the awesome vehicles involved,
it does have a large interesting collection to view.

A LITTLE HIDDEN JAPANESE HISTORY ABOUT THE TOYOTA
CELICA: Where
did the Celica's actual style and inspiration come from?
Here is a little bit of history that you don't hear
much about, but many Celica owners know.
It all started in 1964 with the Ford Mustang. This was
a definite flag ship for Ford and one of the biggest
turn-on in the automotive world of it's day in the USA.
Clear around the world in Japan took notice to this
love struck country over this Pony car. With notice,
the Japanese also fell in love with her beautiful lines
and power too. Japan's Toyota car manufacturer took
on the challenge of designing Japan's own version of
the American Ford Mustang. After completion, production
followed with shipments pouring into USA in 1971. In
1974, Toyota introduced the first GT 5 speed Celica
which is shown below. In 1976, Toyota did not pull any
strings when the Lift back rolled off the assembly line.
This was by far the most obvious copy of the stylish
Ford Mustang fastback and MACH1. Toyota did a great
job on these cute versions of the Mustang and like the
Mustang, The Celica stormed America with open arms.
Our family was crazy over them too, I owned the oldest
one shown below, 1974. My brother owned a 1975 GT and
my mother topped it all off with a 1976 GT Lift-back
in a beautiful factory Root-beer brown metal-flaked
paint. If you are a Celica owner as like us, you can
understand exactly why our family owned 3 Celica's at
one time. As most owners all know...once you drove one
of these speedy little rockets, you became hooked for
life. Well, I bought mine 1st and outlasted our family
by a long shot. Owning this car since 1976 and just
recently had it's 30th B-Day.
When I eventually move on...my daughter has already
informed me that it will become hers and has promised
to carry on this car's legacy with our family. I guess
my life is complete now that she wants it. Little does
she know that I may just take it with me, 8o).

4 Cylinder
Engine
*The piston starts at the top, the intake valve
opens, and the piston moves down to let the
engine take in a cylinder full of air and gasoline.
(Part 1 of the figure) This is the intake
stroke . Only the tiniest drop of gasoline
needs to be mixed into the air for this to work.
*Then the piston moves back up to compress this
fuel/air mixture. Compression makes the
explosion more powerful. (Part 2 of the figure)
*When the piston reaches the top of its stroke,
the spark plug emits a spark to ignite the gasoline.
The gasoline charge in the cylinder explodes
, driving the piston down. (Part 3 of the
figure)
*Once the piston hits the bottom of its stroke,
the exhaust valve opens and the exhaust
leaves the cylinder to go out the tail pipe.
(Part 4 of the figure)
*Now the engine is ready for the next cycle,
so it intakes another charge of air and gas.
