Finally Finished a Project, Pics Inside! Options

[Coomer]

Yesterday I finally finished up a long-term project...my '88 Celica GT. I paid $400 for this car with 132,000 miles on it...it needed a valve cover gasket and a tranny fluid change and new filter, and brakes all around. Now all of that's done, the car has a CD player and power options and everything, and it now has somewhat nice paint and wheels, all for under $1,000, including the price of the car.

Here are some progress pictures:














And here it is now:















It looks like a 4x4, but it's all good...the rims are coming off shortly and it's going to be my bro's first car when he turns sixteen in less than a month. It should be a good first car for him.

My friend seth has 2 fourth gens. and 82' and an 86'. They're both nice. I kept telling him to fix them up but never has. I need to get him to see those pics and I'm sure he'll do something then.

Looks hot coom.

An '82 isn't a fourth gen. Fourth gens. are from '86-'89.

Coom, you said you sprayed the car yourself... Do you have a paint booth or did you do it at a body shop?

I sprayed it right in front of my garage, pretty much right where it sits in those pictures.
