Crickey! 1st of May passed and I almost forgot!
Anyway, just celebrating the 20th anniversary of the AE86 and me girl ... she just came of age with a build date stamped on her firewall of May 1983 and chassis no. 2501.
Not sure how many other examples of the early Sprinters are out there but hey, guess it's a cause for celebration! Another testimony of Toyota engineering - 268k's and still driving strong after 20 years and scaring more modern road machinery.
Drive on!

Hey Speedie ... I ain't organising any cruises but I guess the general plan is to have as many Sprinters front up to the Jamboree this year. You best get that car on the road before then. Auto Saloon's a bit ricey for me ...

Joyride,
No changes made to the headlights ... they are still the original AE86 mounts but the lenses were cracked when I first got the car.
They have been replaced by lenses from AE82 headlights is all.
