Well you've got to start somewhere and this is my second time starting. Nonetheless, the celica's from my past are all part of the story that has led me to this one and finally being able to complete the project I have been dreaming of. They are also contributing a lot of parts and lessons learned to get this car how I want it. I bought this car in September 2010 and will be marking my progress routinely with many pictures.
Here is the baseline. The starting point. The blank Canvas. I'm giving you a full snapshot into its original condition from when I bought it. Flaws and all. This way the you can see the progress it makes as I fix the little details and add the JDM/TRD goodies. 94' Celica GT Hatchback -Stock 5SFE -Stock ABS Brakes -Stock Premium Sound -Stock Suspension -Stock Exterior -Stock Interior EXTERIOR:           INTERIOR:       UNDER THE HOOD:    Here is the progress thread for my first build a few years back.. Learned a lot on that project: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...3997&st=280 (A good read if you are bored at work, lots of parts, pics, problems and even a fire) This post has been edited by jcbass7: Dec 6, 2012 - 10:29 AM |

QUOTE (DEATH @ Oct 4, 2010 - 11:56 AM) Nice addition! What happened to the other two? Or are you just starting another one? -The 3s black hatchback has been dismantled and the shell was junked (too much rust and a bad mold problem in the interior) PIC  -The black coupe I still own, but will be selling soon. I never liked the coupe's as much as the hatchbacks. I will be swapping some things over from that car though. PIC  I have a LOT of fun stuff to put onto this car, but will keep most of it quiet until its on there. Keeps it interesting... I bet anyone who has seen my previous Celi's will know most of the parts I will be tossing on there... (the previous two cars pictured above kinda give a lot of it away) This post has been edited by jcbass7: Oct 4, 2010 - 12:27 PM |
