Added this Ebbro Toyota Corona to my smallish Japanese car shelf. This was the car that put Toyota on the map in the USA in the late 60s. Likely more four door sedans were sold but the Japanese fully understood the American affinity to pillarless hardtops and accommodated that with this car. Ebbro labels this as a 1600 GT5 and it's in home market spec with RHD. I could do without the wing mirrors however.

Nice one John. I have about three dozen Ebbro models - too bad they are shut down now. Even before your Corona was this 1960 model, back when Toyota was Toyopet. Thje wing mirrors are much closer to the driver.

I wonder if anyone did a 1968-71 Corona four door?
