In the 90s, my job transfered me to Puerto Rico. I knew that I needed reliable transportation, so I had a Toyota Celica shipped there. Living there.... the Island's beauty, the beautiful people and women, and yes... my travels in my Toyota Celica... will forever be etched in my mind as some of the best years of my life.
My obsession is Toyota, this video is my actual DREAM GARAGE! My husband is from Puerto Rico and told me he has never heard of this place. If I can visit, I will go next year!
Love this video Proud to be Puerto Riccan... The tradition is also big in Chgo ,New york , Boston , Connecticut , and Miami...and more Puerto Riccans loves our Toyotas
I worked at a Toyota dealership in the late 70s and we sometimes saw some of these old classics. I owned a 1970 Corona RT43 (4 door version of the red 2-door at 8:27). It had automatic and factory A/C. My wife loved that car.
What an out there collection. Surely there is nothing comparable anywhere. Hope you would do more of these, Dennis. Japan has so many unique classics to offer and real heads know it.
What a collection in Bayamon.. Next time i go i gotta stop there.. I had a 70 sprint and a 85 Corrolla SR5 LIFTBACK..THE ONLY 2 I OWNED..I WISH I HAD THEM NOW..MINE HAD THE SLANT 1200 BUT I PUT IN A 1.8 LITER FROM A LATER CORROLLA..
Wow.. Amazing collection! All super clean - bone stock - the way I like it! If I ever go to PR I will def stop by... probably for a few hours at least!
I have a 1969 Toyota Corona Deluxe RT52L (2 door hardtop). 3RC motor with Toyoglide automatic transmission. I bought it from a retired school teacher in California for $65.00!!! It is cool little car!
Thanks Dennis for the tore love it seeing Toyota's I've never seen my father used to buy many of these small car's and fixed them and sold them he bought them for $50-100 dollars in the 70s and 80's I even own a1968 Toyota Corona 4 door still habe 2 of them 68 and 69
I love these cars. I grew up during the 70s 80s. My dad had a 1965 Corona pickup we later converted the 1500 engine and geargox to a 18R Hilux. Wonderful build quality. I drove that until 1994. I bought a 2.2 4Y Hilux that same year and is still driving it today. Toyota does not build the most beautiful cars but boy do they last.
We made the 2017's World Guiness Record with the largest classic car parade. I took my Herbie replica and my 1970 ford falcon. Maybe Dennis should come back and get to see the VW collection.
All Toyotas' name such as tiara celica, Crown, Corolla, Corona, cressida is something you put in your head such as a crown. the Toyota corona mark ii wear a sticker in the back window stating power steering. mark ii and Crown were the first for 1971 with power steering. Crown's option was a dual a/c with a refrigerator in the back. only for about 4 beers and some cheese. highway driving the refrigerator works just fine. beautiful design. another option was 8 track.
Out here in Waianae, I had a chance at a '58 Toyopet Crown. According to the paper, three Toyopets showed up in Dec. 1957. I used to see Mark IIs on the road in the 1980s. I drove a Nov.'68 Corona, sold new in Vegas. The yellow RT-46 was only sold in Hawaii I'm told, by people who had one in California. The Tiara was sold in the States, but the Land Cruisers outsold the cars until the later Coronas and Corollas. I have seen some mint condition '60s Crowns in Kailua before.
1971/72 Corona mark II used to have a sticker in the back stating power steering, first for the coronas. 1971 toyota Crown (top of the line, including 8 track) also came with power steering for the first time, and in addtion with dual air plus the refrigerator in the back. 1 cube feet. enough for 4 bears and some cheese. highway cruising made the refrigerator work perfect.
I love Toyotas. I own an ‘87 MR2 and it’s just a wonderful little sports car. I kept seeing them in the background of this video lol but I love the 60s and 70s Toyota’s too. I’d love to own an FJ40 one day.
wolf2351, one example is "the cheapest European-made US-spec car you can buy" the Toyota Yaris Liftback 3 door, priced in the U$17K's all-in, made in France.
Had a 1980 Toyota Corona deluxe model beautiful interior maroon and silver pàint. Great, dependable car. When I went to buy another one, they were discontinued. Later models weren't half as nice so I got a Pontiac. If they put them out again I'd buy one. It was a class car. I also had a1980 mini van, my children called it my spaceship. Another great vehicle. Over 300,000 miles no problems it was a 1987 mid engine van passenger model.
I remember all the models - having been in one or seen them on the roads - except the very early "Crown"at 2.05 and the last "Sprinter" at 14.05. Toyota engines are one of the best. The straight 6 in the Land Cruiser is also the same powerplant used in the Toyota 6 tonne truck, yes they even make or made trucks. Love Toyota, as the world's people mover and this museum is doing a great work.
@@protectoservices Right. Just be sure when breaking up that you have a second identity, extensive plastic surgery, and a home on the other side the world. And forget about ever seeing your friends and family again because she'll have killed them all.
Dennis, nice collection that you have found in my island!! I could recognize the town where you were driving, its Dorado, PR. I’m not a Toyota fan, but I give merit to an extraordinary collection in pristine conditions of cars that I saw many times while I grow here in Puerto Rico!!! 😁👍✨
Nice collection and. I didn’t expected that here in PR. I have a 1972 Toyota Corona Deluxe 4 doors. We are the original owners. My dad bought it new. It is running perfectly but need some body work and I am in the process of restoration. Some parts have been difficult to find such as the logos, etc that lost over the time. If someone have some information about how to find some parts please let me know.
Very cool collection. I saw at least 7 that I own (although theirs are in slightly better shape). That first Corona Mk11 should be a 2.6L. They did come with a 2.0 as well but top spec got the 2.6 4M engine.
As I’m driving one of my Hilux’s or Landcruiser’s pointing and telling my wife what year Toyota and model it is, All while she is just rolling her eyes! I would lose my mind in this collection!

Too many sweet cars. The color schemes rocked. That 1967 limited edition corona coupe very nice.
That was so nice and refreshing to watch!! I was expecting to see a 1981 Toyota Starlet! but you guys have an amazing showroom! Blessings!

Awesome collection! I've been driving Toyota Corollas since 1995. The Toyota line is one of the best in the world.
Deniss, Excellent presentation and video. Puerto Rico is an excellent island. Keep the good work.

Toyota Collection in Puerto Rico part II ?
I miss my 1984 Cressida Wagon. Great powerful car, would have loved to see one in this collection.

Ive been to Puerto Rico a few times and youll see cars over there that you cant find in the USA.
wolf2351, one example is "the cheapest European-made US-spec car you can buy" the Toyota Yaris Liftback 3 door, priced in the U$17K's all-in, made in France.
A lot of Corollas sold in the states end up in Puerto Rico as second hand cars. That's where most of the running and driving AE86s are.
I still remember when my dad bought a brand new 1972 Corona dark blue at Gomez hermanos. I was 7 . I believe the dealer was in Vegas Alta.
Ed Fountain in Las Vegas Nevada.
Great awesome collection of Toyota car's visit my country you will get slots of old Toyota car's

Great collection, hard to believe 1969 Corolla and 73 Corona , very up to date cars.
Nothing but envy augh wow. I had a 71 Toyota mark 2 4 door yellow.. inline 4 cylinder I miss that car
Yes wow,beautiful collection.
minute 1:08 Toyota AE86 the holy grail of drift in motorsport 😏😏😏
Back in the early 70's I had a Crown with no reverse so whoever was my passenger that day was reverse.Even my mom lol.
Would love to walk around and see every car in person! Such a shame they couldn't go through every car!
Awesome collection. Wish there was something like that near me
Gee great video Thanks for showing great stuff Australia

The yellow '73 Hilux next to the red Corona is identical to what mine would have looked like when it was new. Mine is teal green now.
I love ford and Chevy and old cars
One sweet collection.
WOW. I have never seen so many beautiful original Toyotas in the same place.BTW that car you drove Tiara in Arabic means Airplane. ✈️.
That's is very nice and cool Tony from Pasadena Maryland

My supervisor Ricardo Cumba is half Irish and half Puerto rican.
Remarkable! Great collection!

Excellent episode! And your hostess is gorgeous!
My favorite Toyotas.were the mark 3 and the Toyotas 73 Corolla .the yellow car.nice style.it was a sharp looking car.
Amazing
Very cool collection. I saw at least 7 that I own (although theirs are in slightly better shape).
That first Corona Mk11 should be a 2.6L. They did come with a 2.0 as well but top spec got the 2.6 4M engine.
I love this! Definitely different...
As I’m driving one of my Hilux’s or Landcruiser’s pointing and telling my wife what year Toyota and model it is,
All while she is just rolling her eyes!
I would lose my mind in this collection!
Nice collection! I didn't see a 1981 Celica SE like the one I had owned.

Here's to hoping it wasn't affected by the hurricane 🤞🤞🤞!!!
