hi matey, car looks good in the pics, just close up looks a bit scruffy, nothing major, just bubbling around the windows really, and a bit on the rear arch. really lucky with the car as it seems so solid, cant find any rot underneath, in boot etc, all seems fine thought id decided on the colour but yaa know what its like have another celica i bought last year but the more i stripped it the worse it looked, so thats now an organ donor..but the plan for that was ford olympic blue, lowered and wide wheels filling the wider arches. got this car, the yellow is growing on me so was tempted to do her the proper celica yellow, but this week i want to get a real dark colour, almost black but with red ,burgandy or dark purple , so under real bright light theres a hint of colour, and get all the chrome sorted......................... no doubt ill want another colour by the end of the week though  |

hiya matey ;D don't listen to carl- that yellow gen 1 is mint, bloody mint i tell you! compared to some of the others i've seen over the years its very solid indeed, just the odd scab- but i like those, they add character and i'd call em "battle scars" yep his GT4 is a beaut too, very very tastefully modified in my opinion. Good to see your motors on here matey  |

oh ... thanks for that vw- i get my new wheels on, cant decide if I'm happy or not, you post those, now, ive gotta spendmore money because they give me the horn! you git, this is getting expensive
fancied a set of these a while back. think they're called wolfrace thrust (oooer) or are very similar. remind me of the wheels on the general lee.
have only seen them in 14" before though. postage is gonna be a little steep though

righto... not updated this for ages- got my 18rg a while back, its a runner, so just gonna clean it up and get it in  universal rocker cover degreasing machine  bit of a clean and lick of paint  bough some revolution 4 spokes, 10 " rear and 9" front, were gonna fill the flared arches nicely, unfortunatly dhl"lost them" cnuts. then decided i wanted more of a jdm style wheel and got me some work equips   love the wheels but it really needs to be drastilcally lowered. can get my hand in the front arch sideways!!  want to get the cack somewhere like this, wheels jacked up there whilst i was sorting the acne out  after being inspired by mrbishi( hongkongophooey on here) and with his help answering a few noob style questions got me somem coiloversprings,  much lower already, once I'm happy and get rid of the original perch, looks like itll go another inch  started on the rust , car looked good from 10 foot away, close up there are lare rust bubbles in the paint, 50p size, but once the paint was sanded away, real solid, just looks like stonechips in the metal so waaaay chuffed. have found a bit of welding thats gonna need doing in the inner wing through to the engine bay, when i get the motor out ill sort this out, other tthan that its pretty solid, which was nice. trying to get the car back together for JAE, was gonna try get it all painted but don't wanna rush that bit. want to get rid of the side indicators and move the mirrors and ge some jdm style fender mirrors which i cant afford at the mo. so wil wait, get it staight as poss then paint it. this weeks colour is black. cars gonna be all in primer by jae, ratty look  big thank you to Dan the Man (danst182) for letting me scrounge his spring compressors ;D cheers matey. ooohh... and a shameless plug for my minilites which I'm gonna have to sell  good as new 205 /60/13's done about 600miles at a guess hopefully pics will work this time- " this week i have mostly been using............ photobucket" |
