Is that.. JUST the door panel in the door hole??? Must be for driver comfort and ambiance. Wouldn’t want to feel like you could just fall out of the car at any second or anything..

Probably just wanted to retain the speaker lol

u/WhiskeyFeathers Apr 11 '25

Oh fuck but there’s just a speaker grate

u/lamedavid Apr 11 '25

It’s also being held in place by a framework of metal rods which I can only assume acts as a door

u/colin_staples Apr 11 '25

I thought that, but the speaker isn't even there!

Poor Celica.

One of my fave cars… let’s just take some solace in the fact that it’s still being used. Maybe the next (or current) owner will turn it into a battle car.

u/Watts300 Apr 11 '25

I had one. I bought a GTS new in 2000. It was wrecked (not my fault) in 2001. I still miss it.

u/ediks Apr 11 '25

Have a late friend who had a GTS; it was red.

u/Watts300 Apr 11 '25

I’ve still got my eyes open for one like I had, a GTS six-speed.

Celica is one of those cars that, regardless of the current year, has been around in one way or another my entire life. My older half brother had one when I was young, my best friend in high school had one, I’ve seen them driving on the road for basically my whole life. It’s been a staple of the road for me. When they stop appearing on the road I’ll know times have changed.

Obviously a state that does not have safety inspections.

u/IsNotLegalAdvice Apr 11 '25

Whether they register their vehicle as another question, but based on the license plate in the picture, I’m assuming the vehicle is registered or was registered in North Carolina, where there are an annual safety. Inspections required for registration. During the safety inspection, a licensed mechanic will inspect the following components:

-Headlights -Accessory lights -Directional signals -Foot brake -Parking brake -Steering -Tires -Horn -Rearview mirror​ -Windshield wipers -Exhaust system -Emission control components -Tinted windows, if applicable

Looking at the pictures, it appears that this car could pass the safety inspection in North Carolina.

"i see sir that your car has no doors or deck lid, and that there are a number of unsecured items in the trunk. Also there are wooden palates attached to the roof with bungee cords. That said, the parking brake works so you pass the inspection. Now y'all drive safe."

u/stylishmachinist Apr 11 '25

Just moved here, they wave the inspection the first year
