hello all,
this is my project car that i am currently rebuilding.
i got it for $400 from my nextdoor neighbours sisters boyfriends friend.
its been lowered, 13"/185 watanabay look alikes, 2T celica engine that has had head work, new cams, extractors, 2 1/2" exhaust system, with only one muffler left in the system and a polished rocker cover in its day. its a little bit dirty now but nothing a little bit of elbow grease cant fix. it is currently in pieces as im re-spraying it in a more pure white instead of a creamy white. and fixing all the dents.
please keep in mind that this was when i first got it, it will be looking like it came off the showroom floor when im done
