Hi,

True, if you add the bonnet, grille, badging and interior consoles of the GT, it will look like a GT. It is easier to make it look like a GTV due to the lack of proper toyota air-con units and switches for these old cars, and lack of power windows and proper power window switches etc. You also need to put in the 2TB engine (for ST) or 2TG engine (for GT).

To the untrained eye it will look, for all appearances, to be a GTV (or GT). However, one some asshole like me sees it, I'd say "wow, is that a real GT or GTV?" and then wanna see under the hood and the build plate and that's when you know it aint.

But, you're right, those GT/GTV bits and pieces (bonnet, badges, etc) do look very sweet.. very sweet indeed. I'm sure when (or if) you sell the car it will command a better price with all these rare trimmings, 'cos GT/GTV bits are as rare as hens teeth and cost a bomb now. If it's a real GT/GTV then the price goes up a lot, lot more.

THe problem now, having these bits on your car, is you gotte be extra careful now 'cos if some knuckelhead hits your car it's gonna be nigh impossible to get the GT/GTV bonnet etc replaced with another - and that's a real bummer.
