My brand used Celica, She's a little smashed up but I love her Options

[Project_Pikachu]

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 =)

welcome to the 6GC world. i know that you will love the car when finished. now with the head light conversion, i would do the curren conversion (search curren to find out more) otherwise you want some oem projectors(ooh...sexy). and def get yourself a 3sgte for the motor. sounds like you have a lot of work ahead of you so enjoy yourself. and if there is anything you have a question about there is sure to be someone on the site who can give you the answer they will be more than willing to help.

haha welcome aboard! ive had like 3 sc2s... great little cars but i think when u get the celica fixed up the way u want it, it should make u an awesome car... good luck with it

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

Oh man, I'm so excited for this Celica

Curren front convertion will be hot! goferris's signature picture is a curren..

[Project_Pikachu]

Oh AWSOME! That's uber sexy. Man, I'm gonna need a whole lot of modification.... I'm up for it

[goferris]

only thing with the curren conversion is that it will be hell trying to find the parts. you should talk to playr158 to see where he got his parts. otherwise watch ebay real closely. there was a curren clip for bid last month that went for about $800 if i remember. but it will look nice if you can find the parts.
