TOYOTA - 1000 (KP30) - 1969

Indicações da Brochura de venda

The Toyota 1000 is one of those rare breed of cars that’s not only a pleasure to drive, but fun to drive.
It’s big enough to pamper you with all the usual Toyota comforts, yet small enough to outmanoeuvre a London cab and enable you to park in the kind of places that bring out frustrated frowns in other drivers.
The insurance rating alone is enough to put a smile on your face. And when you discover that in a car average over 40 mpg you can be forgiven for feeling a little smug.
Suffice it to say that the 1000 is incredibly economic when it comes to running costs. But that’s where the economy ends. In other respects, the 1000 is quite extravagant.
Climb inside and you’ll find the interior well designed and beautifully furnished. The seats are contoured to give full support to the small of your back whilst allowing the rest of your body to relax naturally. The cloth inserts add a touch of cool comfort, and the reclining front seats with their build-in head restraints allow you to lounge back in virtually any position you choose. Fitted carpets cover the floor from door to door, and the front mats are removable.
The dash is typically Toyota. Clean and crisp with all the instruments easily visible and the control switches readily at hand. Push the clutch pedal and you’ll find it beautifully light and responsive. Brakes are fitted with a servo so that just a touch will start to pull you up immediately.

UP/KP30 Publica
[edit]
New model, new engine, new image
In 1969, a whole new generation of the Publica was launched. While 2U engine was retained in the cheapest versions, the cornerstone of the lineup was the new K-series 4-cylinder, water-cooled 1000 cc engine (designated 2K), a lower-displacement version of the 1100 cc engine used in the contemporary Toyota Corolla. The pickup version was now officially known as "pickup". The situation in the Japanese market changed, as demand developed rapidly, partially fuelled by the post-WWII baby boomers coming of age and gaining their driver's licenses. Having the Corolla firmly established as the family car offering, Toyota did not market the Publica as the "popular car" anymore, but rather as an entry-level vehicle for first-time young buyers

Uma variante do KP30 a versão Pick-Up.

[toyota1000]

Muitos destes modelos foram recuperados e transformados em carros de pericias e de pista.
Por serem muito leves (600/600 kg) e poderem comportar motores mais potentes tornaram-se campeões.

Aqui mais um transformado

[prelude guy]

Transpira veneno 

Com as Hayashi Racing atrás e as Advan A3A na frente... só as jantes 

[Santos Silva]

É coisa que nunca achei piada... jantes diferentes atrás e à frente

E jantes japonesas já não me espantam...
