This looks like Natalie's car. Not sure if this is her selling it or someone else:

GT4 and JDM parts car

Seems like a lot of good parts, or might be an easy fix to get it back on the road.

Hey guys. Sorry I didn't respond right away, been extremely busy lately (as usual). So basically the situation was just the car was continuously snapping axles. Like I would put an axle in, let out the clutch, and it would snap. I managed to get one to last about 1/2 a mile.. Needless to say, I'm fairly certain something in my passenger side wheel/suspension area was messed up. More than likely from how low the car was. Either way, I just really wasn't interested in fixing it (which would have been relatively simple). I had recently purchased a 2006 BMW 330i and put a Dinan stage 1 kit on that and just totally lost interest in the poor Celica. Fast forward another year and I was married with twin boys and an extremely demanding job. So that's why the Celica unfortunately just sat.

I had it for sale for so low because I Was hoping to just get rid of it easy although all along my plan was to part it out. Unfortunately the field it was sitting in is about to have a house built on it. I originally thought this was going to happen a little sooner than it did, which is why I needed to get rid of it ASAP. Such wasn't the case and I actually went up last week and was able to remove some of the parts that I wanted to sell.

Tomorrow the car is being sold to the scrapyard for $90. If anyone wants anything (that is easy to pull off, lol), let me know and I'll try to grab it before the car gets picked up. I apologize to anyone that did want to buy the car. I would have loved to have sold it whole, but unfortunately I got around to it super late and since the car is 45 minutes away from my house, I had little time to spend on it.
