Hi mate! Nice to see a Corolla wagon taking full love and care! I have a 1973 wagon I been working on, and from my experience a few things: please check the oil, because when the mechanic fuel pump let go, the internal diaphragm is broken, and this let the fuel leak internally to the engine block. I'm in the process to put an electric fuel pump to my car, because I have trust issues with mechanical fuel pumps. Also, I can see your car has (I believe) the original alternator with the external points voltage regulator. You can upgrade to a modern alternator from a Corolla AE90 - AE92, more amps and electronic internal voltage regulator, so you can keep your radio, subwoofer and amplifier, and keep your battery in good health. And check the battery metal base, specially if you put a heavier battery, this because the base structure likes to rust and get loose eventually. Finally, you can upgrade to an electronic ignition module in the distributor, and take full advantage of the MSD box. I'll send pictures of my KE26 wagon to your IG account, so we can keep contact! Greetings from Costa Rica!
My first car in 73. Got rear ended by a land cruiser and flipped end over end. Damn roof caved in and the sun visor scalped me like a western movie, a doctor on his way home found my scalp, put it back where it belonged and wrapped it good enough to get to the hospital. Left a pretty gruesome scar but I still have my hair at 66.

Do you have any info on the side window seals. Like where you or your dad got them from? I have a 71 wagon I plan on restoring.
I have been finding all of my stuff on ebay and Facebook groups. Send me a message on Instagram or fb details in the description
