Hi guys! I'm blasphemy101, a mechanical engineer from Central Florida. I just picked up a Celica GT hatchback from a friend with the hope of giving it a new lease on life. The last couple of years haven't been too kind to the car, and in its disassembled (and broken) state, it doesn't run. As you can see, the car is full of parts (e.g. the front brakes are in the trunk), but I think most of it is there. The body and interior are in great shape as well. I intend to get the car back on the road first, and if everything goes according to plan, things might get more interesting towards the end of summer...

When I get a chance, I'll create a "laundry list" of things that need to be taken care of in order to get this thing back in shape. For now, pictures...

to get the tint off, just use a heat gun, razor, and degreaser/dish soap solution. heat the glass to a temp just too hot to touch and then pull the tint off slowly heating as you go. soak the window in solution and scrape any little glue left with razor. of course for the the rear you will NOT be using the razor. lol just heat the tint and pull, then spray with degreaser and clean.
