Owning A Ra28

[grub2000]

I have been wanting a Ra28 for some time now but if I was to get one it would have to be an everyday runner. What I would like to know is wether or not this is a realistic idea. Are engine parts readily available ie cam belts, water pump etc. Also what about windscreens and stuff.

Any advice or help would be great....especially if it's positive :-)

Should be no problem, Toyota reliability was already a legend when the 28 came along - I run a '76 TA23GT as a daily driver. Parts are mostly OK - if you can't get service items and mechanical parts from Toyota, there is a network of people who can find the more difficult stuff for you. Just don't ask for doors or a tailgate.....

Hi,

I have a RA28 and I drive it every day to work! How cool is that - getting to drive your favourite car in the whole world every day!

Things do co wrong - but luckily only minor stuff so far and I've always managed to source parts one way or another (eBay, TEC, These forums!).

Go do it - You'll never regret it!
