Well... there was no right place to put this but I think this is close enough. This is my big build that I'm slowly picking away at. Like Baz its also a Mk II, just not the same thing...
Anyway I went up to Ohio a few weeks ago and brought home a 1985 Toyota Supra Mk II and 2 grand less of money. As you might Imagine, a 2 grand car needs uhh... a bit of work to say the least. Luckily for me, the car at least kind of runs. it needs some body work and definitely electrical and transmission work but it's do-able.
The interior is in amazing shape but I'll have to strip it out anyway to fix rust spots before putting it back in. They also did many weird things to the car in the past including hot-wiring it for no good reason, since the car hasn't been stolen and we have all the legal papers.
For the 2 grand it also came with extra doors, fenders, tail lights, steering column a whole engine, and more misc parts. I'm pretty excited to get working on this since this generation of the Supra is probably my favorite production car that has been made.
I should also mention that this was an automatic that had a manual transmission swapped in. Currently it has no E-brake and sometimes likes to start going backwards when started.
So, we'll see how far I get...
