yes, and I think the best thing is just to shop around and don't get in a hurry. (just don't take as long as some people do /cough )
you can buy a cheap one if you want to build it yourself, or maybe you'll get lucky and find one that's been cared for.

I would be hoping to get 'lucky' and find one whose owner put the kind of TLC into it that members here seem to lavish on their Celicas, so I would have a car to drive while I re-built Betsy, my 94 ST. I've already rebuilt her 'wheels' from the brake hoses on down, including everything but the suspension parts underneath her, and am contemplating doing those asap and just like njcccmd2002 did. Maybe then I'll get the guts to attempt to swap her engine. Later on re-do the interior. Have to do this one little step at a time. Every step is a learning effort.
