This is the story of my car.
I bought my '94 GT from a man in Ootewah, TN in June right before my 17th birthday. It was a internet listing... It looked beautiful in the pictures, so of course I was very excited about $3,000 price covered by an insurance claim from wrecked Maxima (may it rest in peace). I drove 2 hours to find the car and when I arrived... shoot, it was the prettiest thing I'd ever seen. It had a crappy body kit not made for a Celica stuck on with tiny rivets and some kind of caulk, classy flame/lightning bolt decals that had worn down to the sticky, the 18" silver rims had so much clay dust on them they were red, the front bumper at one point had a plate attached and was never repaired, broken high beam and good lord the paint... Plus a couple minor mechanical things, no biggy. I could fill a whole page with the bad. I loved it! I've always been a Celica fan so I took it and promised I'd do all the work myself... So far in 3 months I have replaced a ruined driver's door and a rusted out hatchid. I removed the side skirts, cut them, extended them with fiberglass and am now molding them back on (the whole kit myself). I bought a Kombat front bumper and have to bend the frame to fit (hit and run in the former life)... I am repainting it myself...
