Decided to start part 2. Part 1 got locked at my request, it was going no where. This time is final, and a tribute to my car...
This will mostly be a journal. Not a how to. No where else to keep records. You are welcome to ask questions. No 2gr info here, there is a separate thread... This car has not been driven in 8 months, it has been used as a parts car, for the mr2, and the previous celica sold. Unfortunately, because of this, its getting new parts, or parts are getting blasted and painted. The car currently is a sad vision, 7 years of use, last 3 of neglect... few pics of current condition... ( no wipers, no knuckles, no seats, no steering, etc, etc, etc...) DSCN1313 ![]() DSCN1308 ![]() DSCN1310 ![]() holes left from removing things.. DSCN1312 ![]() the knukcles ive got, are rusted.... DSCN1311 ![]() Most recently decided to pull all the wiring, for the cruise control. I will never use it so... E3C0FF98 ![]() it was sent away EED8DDA9 ![]() while i was there... 1FDA2065 ![]() then.. B483D95E ![]() over the next few weeks will bring it back to life again.....

I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
