WTB: in large need of car- REALLY want a 6th gen celica, preferably under 5K, good first-car material Options

[monster_cars6]

hello! i am new to the forum by recommendation of a friend. he's a very good friend and owner of a 6th gen celi. i just turned 16 and would absolutely LOVE!! a 6th gen celica. ever since my friend got one, i was in love with the car. my father is a bit of a cheap-skate so his ideal car to pitch in for would be 5K and under (for insurance reasons and because it's my first car) and he isn't willing to go very far to look/ get a car. so if you're in ohio, that's great, if not, i might be able to talk him into the surrounding states but not much farther so at this point, i am looking for a clean car, preferably hatch, with only a few problems, if any, manual, and a sun roof if it isn't too much to ask. i will not run the car ragged and i will love the car until i can't anymore. i am willing to put in some wrench time but more for minor/ tuning things along with some exterior work. so please, if anyone has one that there are willing to give up to go to a good owner, please contact me e-mail me (at drum247@woh.rr.com or leave me a message on here!) i appreciate any help, even if you know a guy who knows a guy and so on. i would love to make a 6gc my car and to become part of the family i have been reading about lately. PLEASE HELP!! thank you!!

I know of one for sale. 1994 Coupe, black. It's not running but it has a spare engine that does run. Since I personally pulled the running engine out of another Celica, I can confirm that it runs.



It's located in Alton, IL. I know it's kind of far from you, but the price is VERY good on the car. You could easily pick the car up and have a mechanic drop the new engine in for under $5,000.

Who is your friend that referred you to the site? Good luck searching for a Celica! Hopefully you get one!
