Just check ebay every few weeks. Also, check by junk yards. I picked mine up on ebay. Good luck, check my profile for pics of them on the front grill.

I got quoted for $18 retail for one at Toyota Parts Department. Plus i get a little discount. It's the same price for the cursive "celica" emblem. For the celica emblems is costing me $27 for two and they said it's the same price for the dragons. it's from a 71 celica.

haha found some "history" thing:
Brief History of Celica and 1982 Production Toyota named the car "Celica," which derived from medieval Spaniards that used Latin and it's literal translation is a plural form of "celestial" as in "celestial things". The original dragon logo depicts a celestial blue dragon; symbol of the East and representative of the Emperor and celestial power. The dragon logo emblem depicted above adorned the first of the first generation Celicas. 158,800 total Celicas were produced for production year 1982 for the Japan and international markets. There were 115,690 Toyota Celicas sold in the USA for production year 1982. This includes both the ST and GT grades combined. -------------------- |
