My RA24, named Rusty, but no more rust ha hah... well hmm, Medium well or Well done? Options

[njccmd2002]

Finally found something worth restoring, not decided if ill go custom or ill restore to its original beauty.

Body is straigt, some rust spots. It runs but it needs a battery, carburator and revise the brakes.. the undercarriage is ok, not rusted.

The car is original from alabama, so is southern vehicle. The interior is trashed. I had not seen it from the inside, but i drove 300 miles with a uhaul trailer, so i was not going back empty handed.

We negotiated, i think i paid a little too much, but the price is under 800, that was his asking price..

Surprised it runs, and no major body issues... except the hood. So right now i just need to start to clean and make it drivable again

Its a classic, and i finally found it. Now i have a 77 celica, and a 97 celica... lol 20 years later.

Enjoy the pics, and take note.. Is a diamond in the rough....

I used to ride to elementry school everyday in one of those!!! [Explains my love for Celicas] Ours was a white '77 HB tho. The interiors were just like that man - ours was trashed by the early 80's - and my Mom is almost as anal about her cars as I am.
Just FYI from someone who has owned a '81 GT - the 22r sux much anus. I hate that motor more than I hate USDM 6GC engines
Get something with more power IMO.
Cool project and best of luck on it.
