Seen a Celica for sale at the end of last week, as soon as I saw it I fell in love with it. It is an import, needs a few wee bits and pieces done to it but overall it's not too bad. The only downside is it's the 3F-SE engine and not the 3G-SE, I don't mind though as I'm looking for a car to do up nicely for the shows so not overly concerned about the performance. Also got it for the bargain price of £700 ($1067) smile.gif Some pics for you;







Plan to put on black raiser blocks and may change the bonnet to black as well.

Done a few jobs to the front today;

Before I started;


Got rid of this;


Fitted this; Thanks to Rob at Likwidart


Fitted number plate surround and Fly Eye Kit to all the lights;

Thanks I thought it was a steal at that price, the guy I bought it off pointed out that the boot (trunk) wouldn't lock, the bonnet latch wasn't working, the handbrakes were shot, the front passenger side shock was shot and would probably cost about £200 ($300) to get fixed and hence the good price, I had all these fixed myself in about an hour and cost me nil laugh.gif
