Aloha, I'm Pikachu and I'm so very happy I just bought a 94 Celica from a friend. She's got some substancial body damage, a blown motor and smashed back hatch BUT she was 400 bucks and I HAD to have her. I just got rid of my SC2 after 4 long years of finally discovering how much I hated it, I can't even begin to explain my happiness to have this Celica. She's my first project car, I've learned quite a bit about body work on the Satty and since I've actually got a daily runner so I can take my sweet time with my new Celica. Anyways.

Her door on the passanger side has a FATTY gouge in it. I'm debating if i want to pull it out and bondo it or if I'd save myself the trouble and just get a new door. Next the front bumper is... well... crooked. I've been eyeing up maybe a body kit for it (so I can shave out all the lines and make it real smooth) but I was so impressed with the headlight conversion I did on my SC2, I might want to do different headlights. Opinions? Keeping in mind I'll have quite a bit of free time soon, and I want her to be sharp looking, not gaudy and obnoxious. Lastly is the interior. Since its all shredded I'm tearing it all out and re-doing the seats with leather and fiberglassing everything else. This'll be a mighty project for me, but I'm so excited to have a car that there is actually aftermarket support for. Horah for me =)

Awsome, thanks guys! As far as the new motor, I of course want to do a boosted engine BUT I've got a whooooole lot of research to do. And that's a mighty project in itself, I'm wanting to make her clean and sharp looking.... then I'll worry about making her a beast >=D

As far as my collection of Sattys go, I'm on SC2 number 2 and opted for a Vue as my daily driver. I need 4 doors and a whole lotta room for all my stuff. And I got sick of blowing up dif pins and tranny's and melting my back bumper rolleyes.gif

Oh man, I'm so excited for this Celica biggrin.gif
