I did a small clean but the buffing and polishing for clearcoat is to make it shine like the rest of the car

Go figure, as soon as I decide to keep the Celica someone comes by willing to pay over the $3K I was asking for it... Turns out the kid has been saving up and watching the car, he came by today with $2,800 cash thinking it was still for sell. I don't know what to do, he begged for me to change my mind. If I'm going to sell it, he's the kind of buyer I was looking for though... Ugh... I don't know what to do... Rest of the exhaust should be here in the next day or two...

It's just typical... After searching Craigslist and eBay there's nothing I'd really want to turn around and buy though. Was a '79 Trans Am that sounds promising but has the lowly 301 in it. Couldn't find any Supras that weren't automatic, meh... This might be easier if the cars I wanted were readily available.

Yesterday I removed the SP1 exhaust and put the factory exhaust of my other one that was wrecked on. Funny thing was I couldn't tell much of a difference in sound going from stock Greddy but I can tell the difference going from greddy back to stock. Must have been the 4th months of not driving a celica while I was searching for a suitable replacement. Also I ordered a replacement wheel and fitted my wheels
Today I'm going to rip my subs and 4" speakers out and see if I can get them installed in the new one. -------------------- 97 Celica GT liftback DD/ project

This isn't fair, I was finally content. Haven't texted him yet as I still haven't decided. Sure there are others cars I'd like, but it's just finding them in acceptable condition in the near future... Maybe I'll just ask my Magic 8 Ball.

But now I'll have exhaust that won't go with any other car I'd be getting. Meh, will just throw it in with it.
As far as replacement cars go it'd be a lot easier if I weren't so averted to automatics, non-coupes, and FWD. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

Hmm, you may be onto something. My '67 DeVille was my pimping car, the Supra was for selling cocaine. There's just nothing out there that I want. I have standards. High standards. Unrealistic standards. That's ok though.

You must have had a reason for keeping it this long, why not a bit longer?Btw, Today i got a few packages, photos to come in the next week as it all shows up. |
