Urgent Need - 77 Celica GT Liftback Parts

[mdtillman]

Hello all. I'm new to the forum. A few weeks back, my 77 GT Liftback had the driver's side windows smashed in during a vandalism-theft. I was able to locate most parts through a local dealer. I am in need of a couple of parts which the dealer has not been able to locate.

I need a rear quarter glass channel guide and a cable remote adjustable outside rear view mirror for the driver's side. Does anyone know of possible sources for these parts? Thanks in advance.

Hi John,

Sorry to hear that your car got vandalized - that really sucks when it come to older cars!

I checked all the part numbers in the Toyota system, and they are almost all discontinued. The only thing that came up as still available is the weatherstrip for the rear quarter window.

I also ran the numbers through Parts Voice and there aren't any dealers with any of the required parts in stock (except the weatherstrip, which is at Cabe Toyota). Please note that this search is only valid with Toyota dealers that are part of the Parts Voice database, so there may be some non-participating dealers that might have parts.

Other than that, I guess the only source for the parts you might need would be wrecking yards or keep posting on the various forums out there and hopefully someone might have what you're looking for. Have you checked with the Classic Celica Forum?

There's a rear quarter glass on Ebay right now. Just goto eBay and search on Toyota Celica RA28 Left Hand Side Window

I'd also recommend contacting David Wong at Sleeka Spares in AU. He specializes in old Celica parts. [e-mail]

Or you can try Toyhead Auto Restoration Services. www.toyheadauto.com/
