I am really considering the same swap for mine too. Where can I find a link of your build up to follow along?

The car looks great. Is the Lexus motor the 1UZ?

Are you on any Celica forums?

Thats cool. any pictures of it? Ok that is good to hear. I was able to take mine out on 2 separate rides today and the bike is really smooth riding.

New Departure Model D. I also found this yesterday: http://ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/new-departure-model-d-rebuild.30484/ Was really helpful. The problem was the axle but it caused another problem the little clip spring tab broke. So I re bent it and filed it down. I installed the...

Thanks Luke. Checked out your project very cool. Thats a good Idea I might have to think about trying it. I am currently working on building the coaster brake again. I noticed that the wheel was loose before my test drive. I rode it across town and back and it worked good then I brought it...

Thanks Luke. I have been looking for a 1971-1972 Celica for over 10 years locally and nothing popped up till last month, when my dad spotted it next town over.

Well progress has been slower. Just waiting on my tax return to come in. Then I can order all the parts I need. I have the rear coaster hub disassembled and cleaned. Just need to grease and install it. I also found a leather shop in town who will sell me some new (but aged looking) leather for...
