1973 Toyota Crown S70 (MS75) Coupe

This Crown coupe was spotted on trademe NZ in February 2018 - being sold along with a sedan of the same era. These so rarely come up it's quite a treat when they do. A great shape with the best looking bumpers of the 1970s.

If you have one of these rare Crowns (MS70 / MS75), please sign-up and add yours to Classic Register. Check out the others on the Toyota Crown Coupe Register.

At the time of sale, the seller noted the following:

Everything is working including the original factory radio. Unfortunately the electric aerial is broken but the electric aerial motor still works. 
Sold new in CHCH, owned by father and son. We are the 3rd known owner as far as we are aware. 

Needs a tune and has a hole in the exhaust. 3 stage automatic. Supporting paperwork for work done on the coupe over the many years by the previous owner. Some receipts you will see in the photos. Some rust around wheel archers and bumpers to be expected for a vehicle of this age. Registration has lapsed and is no longer a registered vehicle. We have the original ownership papers as per photo.
