i know everyone is praying that it doesnt sell, but i hope it does. for the situation you are i in i hope you get the money. i wish there was a better way to get it (prostitution, child sex slave ring) but i can see that you thought through this. we are like long lost brothers, i put myslef in the position and i would do the same thing. i just hope in the future you get another celica, its a stretch but you never know what might come up.
oh, and dont sell the celica locally. i know you are like me and you would hate to see someone driving your baby around town. -------------------- ![]() 1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

Sorry to see you've made up your mind already about selling the 6gc. I know what it's like to have a father who wanted to sell a car that has been in the family since I was a kid. I guess the difference is that my father actually went through with it, without even telling me about it. It was hard to accept at first, but cars come and go. If it was meant to be, then I shouldn't have had to force things to work out. I guess someday when I'm ready, I'll just go buy my another Porsche 911(964) turbo. It's funny though, that car came from overseas, and the person who ended up buying it was overseas too so the car had to be shipped across again haha. As much as I loved that car, I know my dad didn't sell it for space reason alone. I know he loved that car too, but I believe financial situation played a factor as well, so I understood that family comes before any car. The person who purchased our car was some sort of movie producer and said he was buying the car to use in a movie (hopefully not as a stunt car). How much would that suck to see the car you gave up become the next famous movie car like Eleanor haha. Highly doubtful that could happen, but you never know!
Anyways, goodluck with whatever happens. If you need help finding any parts for your RA Celica then let me know, I have connections to classic japanese car parts. A first gen Celica is a project I would like to tackle in the future myself as well. Best of luck. -------------------- |

Very good move, IMO. I am in love with the older Celicas and nothing would give me the satisfaction of making my own car like an older Celica would.
As far as the engine I would recommend a 1JZ and just put some BPU's on it (should give you around 275-300WHP). And a full wood grain interior would be awesome. Any pictures of it? |

Now I want to see my 6g and pick up one of those. I've always liked the looks of them, especially the fastback. Plus RWD. If you source a F20C (As was suggested) from someone who's wrecked their S2000 trying ti realize their dream of being a professional drifter, you'll have one of the fastest cars around, and it will look ****ing hot at car shows and meets. Even so, I ****ing love the look of those cars and no matter what you do with it as a project it will look spectacular (this word is gay).
Go for it. -------------------- ![]() (\__/) (='.'=) This is bunny. Copy and paste bunny into your (")_(") signature to help him gain world domination. |

keep them both, you've had the car for 30 years, I dont' see the problem in stretching out another couple of years for you to gather funds...I dont' think space is that big of an issue, if you're creative u should be able to find a place to keep it while you gather mula. Good luck anyhow, if you're happy in the end then the decision was a good one
