1976 Toyota Celica Liftback by Secret Factory

Revived in 2015 as an ambitious shop project, this 1976 Toyota Celica Liftback is a testament to Secret Factory's dedication to vintage Japanese cars. Located in Sacramento, California, Secret Factory's team embarked on an eight-year journey to transform this classic looker with modern performance enhancements and a distinct green paint refresh. The original 4AGE engine was replaced with a more potent Beams engine, enhancing both power and reliability. The build boasts custom bodywork with Volkswagen Rabbit fenders and bespoke metal flares, further showcasing the team's growing fabrication skills. Fitted with AE86 coilovers, it's poised for an engaging drive, supported by a Techno Toy Tuning x Wilwood brake kit. Inside, vintage TRD bucket seats and a Momo steering wheel maintain its classic aesthetic. It rides on Hayashi Racing wheels, with sizing accommodated by the fender modifications. A mixture of patina and modernization highlights the car's unique appeal in the vintage car scene.
