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;

Right I have had a busy couple of days smile.gif thought I would share with you what I have done, decided to carry on with the interior changes;

Decided to get rid of the cloth on the door card;



Cut some yellow leatherette to the same size as the cloth (ok I'll be honest the missus done this mod for me as she loves doing this sort of thing, I just took the door cards off);



Glued and fitted the leatherette;



Refitted to the car;



Have also been painting the interior plastics of the past few days, would have liked to have gave them one more top coat but ran out of paint, may give them another wee spruce up in the future but for now I'm really happy with what I have done;

Before;




And after;










Need to get a ciggy lighter biggrin.gif

On a roll so when the Boot Visor from Vincent's GB arrived today, had to get it fitted biggrin.gif

Before;


After;


Looks really well on a yellow car biggrin.gif
