so the shop behind ours at work be brought in this celica a few weeks ago, hit in the nose, bent up hood, bumper, and highbeams..i looked at it,..and thought, hmm, that'd be a cool project car..
i asked the guy about it a couple weeks ago, and he said, "gimme 300$, and its yours, parts are too expensive for it"... needless to say, ill be picking it up next weekend. once its fixed up a bit, it will replace my daily driver now, my 93 civic. i figure what the hell, i work on enough celicas, only right i should be driving one daily! the wifey drives the beast daily, and i drive it as well, but it will be nice to have my own now as well. ![]() so its a 95 GT,185,000 miles. unfortunately, its an auto, but i figure, no biggie, it will be nice to teach my daughter to drive, (she recently got her permit) and later on,... not like ive never done a auto to manual conversion before! lol run and drives quite well, even with the front end damage, hell, it didnt even damage the radiator, and it looks like it had recently been replaced! SCORE! lol its Bright Iris Pearl ..i call it "burple" again, at least my daughter will approve, purple is her favorite color! ![]() a couple pics as it sits: the good: ![]() the bad ![]() the ugly ![]() it even has the manuals ![]() ![]() yay! hey migga, at least you wont be the only one the girls point and laugh at for having an auto at the meets now!!

QUOTE(tomazws @ Mar 6, 2008 - 12:44 PM) [snapback]649860[/snapback] Are you SURE you got this car for your daughter and not for yourself?!?!?!? ohh, no, tom...this is DEFINETLY NOT for my daughter...i will let her drive it (while its still auto anyway..lol) but its definetly going to be MY car. ive been telling the wifey, now i can make a new name....the REAL pressure2...lmao since all my time here has been with her car. jesse: ill take you up on that...although we may have to arrange a 100 installment payment plan..lmao things are tight moneywise...at least till the old house sells. but yea, shoot me a PM with what your thinking...maybe we can work somthing out. ![]() joe: thanks. tina...you know D, hes like having a personal celica junkyard as your best friend! haha we'll see how things go...right now, i just wanna get the car on the road...i've thought of prolly a dozen diffrent ways to go about this thing already...im sure ill go thru a few dozen more before i actually start doing anything. hardest part right now, is once its fixed, its going to need paint...since jenns car is the color i always wanted on our celica, picking a color for this one isnt going to be so easy. ![]() -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
