Decided to start part 2. Part 1 got locked at my request, it was going no where. This time is final, and a tribute to my car...

This will mostly be a journal. Not a how to. No where else to keep records. You are welcome to ask questions. No 2gr info here, there is a separate thread...

This car has not been driven in 8 months, it has been used as a parts car, for the mr2, and the previous celica sold. Unfortunately, because of this, its getting new parts, or parts are getting blasted and painted.

The car currently is a sad vision, 7 years of use, last 3 of neglect...

few pics of current condition... ( no wipers, no knuckles, no seats, no steering, etc, etc, etc...)

the knukcles ive got, are rusted....

Could try one off a 5s as well. It's not nearly as tall as that.

Worst case scenario, get some hood spacers where the hood bolts to the hinges and bump that b!tch up hahaha



i would require 1 inch spacers, which would make the hood sit so high, its ridiculous.....

can you tell me what didn't fit with the FRS seats? They just wouldn't fit in place because of the shoulders?



extensive welding required, and modification, the angle of the seat cushion is not right.
