Edit: Just using the same thread I started to avoid clutter. Scroll down for new pics...more on the way as I work on it!

So I drove the car home today...had to adjust to the new clutch and the wide expanse of legroom, lol, but it is officially in my driveway and registered to my name biggrin.gif

In other words...MINE!!!

Sadly, I brought the camera out to take pictures, and it wasn't charged. I put it to charge, and when it was ready to go it started to rain. Then all my friends and family demanded to see it so I've been driving around the island all afternoon showing it off. All I've managed are a few shoddy camera phone pics:

I promise there will be some beautiful hi-def pics in the next day or two biggrin.gif

there are some problems that I want to get taken care of that you can't see in these pictures...like the front bumper is a little crooked and the paint has flaked on it, and the interior needs some serious work. Mainly I need to get new seats, or at least a new driver's seat because the one that's in there is a corolla seat forced into the rails, and so it doesn't pull up high enough for me to reach the pedals comfortably. Anyone know where I can get a good Celica seat online? It's hard to find stuff here...

...I aleady have an amp and two 12-inch speakers to put in, and it came with a 6-CD changer, though I'm debating to keep or sell that....I'll see. Gotta fix the fritsy alarm before I do anything...

more to come...

Well, guys, I woke up EXTRA early just to take some pics before I took the car to work today wink.gif ....so feel special, cus I took them for you! (okay, really for me, too...but shhhhhhh)

I had to put some pillows against the back of the driver's seat so that I could reach the pedals comfortably enough laugh.gif I so desperately need a new driver's seat!

So I'm at work now and since these cheap owners have DIAL-UP photobucket is taking its dear sweet time uploading my pics....but don't worry, a few have gone through, so here they are:

The front bumper is a little skewed because of an accident the first owner was in, so this needs to get fixed (the paint job could use a little touching up as well):

Driving to work today was so exhilerating...the winding roads are a snap and when I hit a straightaway the smooth ride just gives me tingly feelings inside biggrin.gif Thanks again guys for your input in helping me decide whether to buy it...

more pics uploading now! biggrin.gif
