New Member with a 87 Celica GTS, I know its not 6G but a Celica none the less Options

Hello all,

I am a owner of several Toyota's. My newest project is to refurb this old 87 Celica GTS. All original, the interior is perfect.. Used to have a 3SGE motor that I pulled because it had thrown a rod through the block. Needs quite a bit of body work, rust you know. I was looking for body kit but they seem few and far between. I am looking to install a 2nd Gen 3SGTE into it. I thought this forum may be the place to get some questions answered..

Will a 3SGTE bolt into the GTS? Will the GTS 5 speed bolt up without major modifications? Where is a good place to purchase front clips from 6G Celica?
Know of any site dedicated to the older (87) body style..

Thanks for the help. After this ones done I may look into a 6G..they are really badd ass lookin cars..

As he already told you it will drop right in. I used to own a '86 GTS that I swapped with a second gen 3S-GTE. Those are great cars but as you say - extremely hard to find decent body parts. I ended up sourcing mostly alltrac body parts for it and painting it flat black- it came out pretty nice.
Sadly I have no pics of her anywhere I can find
Welcome.
