New Gen6 Owner - Autotrader Find Options

[elcortes]

Hey guys, I found this one almost as soon as it was listed this past friday and was lucky to have it be 18 mins away from where I live. Honestly i was never a hardcore Celica fan, I liked them but didnt think about owning one. I saw this while I was at work and felt like i had to at least see it. Arranged a time to come see it and once i started looking at it, I had a feeling she was coming home with me that day. A bit unsure if i was getting it for a good deal. But then thought to myself.. its a mid 90s car that just needs another $3-400 to bring it back to date on maintenance and a bit of elbow grease to make it shine even more. Plus i felt better after i paid her when she mentioned someone was going to drive 2 hours to go see it that next day if i didn't buy it lol.

95 ST, 1 owner. No accidents, No rust, only 94k miles 5 spd Paint is in good condition and she did say it was always garage kept and was parked for the most part since 2010. Occasionally only driven up the road to the store for groceries due to her foot condition. Typical swirls and a scuff mark where someone swiped it on a quarter panel. Im sure i can remove it when i wax and polish the car though. Also someone reversed into their front bumper and left a couple small dents but thats about it.

Plan on doing a full tune up including timing belt and make it my daily. Have a strange rubbing/rattling noise coming from the power steering area that stops when i lock the wheel to either side. Been so busy to take a look at it but ill start by looking at the fluid. Want to look into making her look better but ive noticed there isnt much that we can buy for them anymore. Would love to do a full lip kit on this along with suspension and wheels. Anyways here she is!

I will post more pictures as I clean her up more. All Ive done is vacuum the seats and carpet.
