Well lets start from the beginning.

at first I had a 93 GTS celica.
it was a little rough around the edges but i loved it and got it all perty!
then one day i was at a stop sign and a suburban decided to hit me. this is what it looked like(sorry no b4 pic frown.gif )

Indeed a sad day.
but after that i decided that mabe a small car wasnt for me. so i went to complete opposite ends and bought a 1978 chevy blazer that has 10 inch overall lift and just awsome.
many modz but dont wanna list because this is mainly about my 6gc
but this is the truck


well lets say after a year and a half i realised that i needed a celi again!
so i was searching craigslist all the time and i finally found one i liked.
it was beaten up pretty bad as you can kinda see in the dark pics.

front fender was pretty messed up!
and you cant really see taht well in this pic but the back quarter panel was beat up badly also

but!
then i started the bondo
and lets see how far thats come




also i replaced the fender with OEM one


and i also did the passenger side (all the little dings and watnot)

then i got some JDM tails
from CCC JDM (member on here)

just perfect!
then i get a package at my door and what else could it be. besides clear turns!!

then.(sorry to drag on)
i got my windows tineted and 6gc stikers!



alright now

then i get the SS-III spoiler with raisers and a hood emblem from the old celi's




which i also just installed (to replace the ugly 3 post spoiler)
ill have pics later on of it.
But the car is actually going in for paint either 2 or 3 weeks.
so needless to say i have come a long way since i got the car in january!
so what do yall think so far?

Got some bad new.. some guy decided to hit me while i was driving and he pulled out of a parking lot. He messed up my front fender and broke my left side headlights, turn signals. But surprisingly my splitters stayed on and didnt crack at all.

I also will need a new front bumper and am considering the invader front bumper right now(prolly will change)
but im not paying for any of repairs but still a major bummer.......
but ill get some pics up soon for yall...

Sorry to hear that man. If you do get an Invader bumper, let me know how much you want for the splitters.
