bloodMoney's Project V.2 Codename: Lily, Let's try this again.... Options

It took 6 months of searching, but I finally found another 6g to replace my Abby....





She's a 96 GT 25th anniversary No. 0455. 128,xxx miles, Autofail, tan top.

There are a host of issues that need to be fixed, as with any new used car, but this is what I found so far:

Needs:
Driver's side axle
Driver's side wheel bearing
Poly bushings all around
Struts and springs
Fuel filler neck and gaskets
Wheels and Tires
Quarter Windows need adjusted
Door Cards
Deck lid leaks on the driver's side

There is some rust that needs to be addressed, but luckily it is still at the point where it can be fixed without too much trouble.

Once I get the steering/suspension fixed, I'll drive her like that for a bit to confirm that we're ok for daily duty, then we'll begin planning modifications.

I'll try and take more pictures as I get the opportunity. I'm just happy to be back in one.

They're really not that bad. Doing the timing belt kind of sucks but it's RWD so there's more room than a Celica to work with. They have a little more suspension going on up front with double wishbone and the upper ball joints tend to wear out around 90-100K (and the lowers not long after) but again, not hard parts to replace just can be costly for the uppers since the joint is part of the arm.
