PROJECT TE37

I've had this car for the past 7 years now. It ran when I first purchased it, but was stripped and neglected shortly after. I have since reconstructed the car with parts from various sources, to include my prized possesion European spec front and rear bumpers. This car will need to be completely torn down and built from the ground up. I plan on running a 89mm 3TC 11-1 compression with a nice healthy shot of nitrous to get it really going. The interior should remain mostly stock but that can always change as the build progresses. I'll keep you all posted on the progress.
Here are a couple pictures of it right now.

They aren't everywhere out here, but you definately see them if you keep your eyes peeled. Thanks for the compliments on the car, I've worked pretty hard on them to get them to this point. I'm looking forward to making my ideas, reality on the TE37. I'm using a couple Austalian and New Zealand KE30's as my inspiration. Should be somthing that hasn't been done here in the states.

Nice cars!! Good luck with the TE37! What colour will you go for on it?
BTW, Do you got any interior parts for the corolla to sell?

the color I am going to paint it is off the 2006 Lexus. It's called Tigereye pearl over here. It's a crazy shade of brown with a blueish pearl. Looks weird, but nice at the same time. Let me know what you need on for parts on a PM and I'll see if I can help. I think your trim is the same as the TE31's over here.
