Not sure if this is possible, but would you be open to trading struts & springs, with cash on top from me? Otherwise, good luck with sale.

More random pics from one of the meets Driver was at, just to show how clean the car is:
   First two pictures are bloodMoney's, and I actually took the third so that's why picture quality sucks.

$6,000 takes it. Will NOT go any lower. That's EVERYTHING. All my spares, includes summer/performance tires and winter tires, CT26 turbo and almost everything you need to throw it on the 5SFE and all the stock parts.

Quick question. What size spacers are you using? And I don't think you have the stock cluster judging from the video so your original mileage might be off a bit.

How the hell do you assume the mileage isn't correct? Have you not noticed how clean this car is especially being a Chicago car? I have never swapped any clusters in ANY of my cars. When I bought the car it had 77k on it. The timing belt was changed at like 68k I believe? I think I mentioned it in the vid. Carfax it if you like. PM me and I'll give you the VIN. I'm running eibach 25MM hubcentric spacers. None of that ebay cheap crap.

I have personally seen this car quite a few times in person, I know the seller. The pics here do not show exactly how clean this car really is. He did NOT swap any other cluster into the car. changing out the lights is a 10 minute job, I did it many times in both of my old Celicas.

I had an AT Celica that did not have the PRNDL in the gauge cluster. I think that was limited to Euro/Jap spec Celicas.

ILoveMySilly97 is mourning the USDM version's lack of PRNDL indication on a gauge surface; I ponder why as it just reminds of having a crap-o-matic.

If you haven't watched a lot of fs threads people who sell their car often part out small things to make extra money, you don't have to blow it out of proportion. He asked a serious question. Calm down we are your friends!!!
