I Got It!!! :D, Progress Report Options

Edit: Just using the same thread I started to avoid clutter. Scroll down for new pics...more on the way as I work on it!

So I drove the car home today...had to adjust to the new clutch and the wide expanse of legroom, lol, but it is officially in my driveway and registered to my name

In other words...MINE!!!

Sadly, I brought the camera out to take pictures, and it wasn't charged. I put it to charge, and when it was ready to go it started to rain. Then all my friends and family demanded to see it so I've been driving around the island all afternoon showing it off. All I've managed are a few shoddy camera phone pics:



I promise there will be some beautiful hi-def pics in the next day or two

there are some problems that I want to get taken care of that you can't see in these pictures...like the front bumper is a little crooked and the paint has flaked on it, and the interior needs some serious work. Mainly I need to get new seats, or at least a new driver's seat because the one that's in there is a corolla seat forced into the rails, and so it doesn't pull up high enough for me to reach the pedals comfortably. Anyone know where I can get a good Celica seat online? It's hard to find stuff here...

...I aleady have an amp and two 12-inch speakers to put in, and it came with a 6-CD changer, though I'm debating to keep or sell that....I'll see. Gotta fix the fritsy alarm before I do anything...

more to come...

Sweet car man! When you get the seats, see if you can find the leather ones. The black leather seats plus the red looks awesome. The other option is to get some totally beat up ones for cheap, then reupholster them in black leather. Reupholstering is often cheaper than new seats.

it looks awesome, congrats!

btw- how big is the island you live on? Did you get the car on it, or did you buy it somewhere else, and have it shipped?
