Ok ill get my thread going now. Here i am tearing apart the car getting it ready for new paint. I probably should have fitted the 1MZ first but timing just worked out this way.
    Here the engine bay is getting painted. the pictures dont to it any justice.     Should get the rest of the body painted this week and then ill put it all together. Ill take some pics of the engine when I get home. It actually snowed up here last night so I wasn't gonna go near outside -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
