Hi 6gc community!

Gosh its been awhile since I've checked in. I still have my Celica BUT I purchased/upgraded to a BMW 335i Coupe (pretty much fully loaded) alittle over a year ago... so its has taken all my attention (sad to say). But like I said I decided to keep my Celica just because its been such a great car and I have put sooo much time/work/money into it. It was my first car and my Dad bought it for me back in '98-99, survived college high-jinx and I still use it as a long-tripper. Needless to say it has alot of sentimental value smile.gif Here are some pics of my new straight-six Twin turbo beauty and my first love! Hope yall r well and I apologize for the unresponded messages I have received.

PS- GO HORNS!!!!!!!!!

edit: almost forgot! The last thing I did on the Celica was to swtich back to my old cloth seats BUT I had a local upholstery shop redo them in black leather and dircted im to make the stitching as close to OEM as possibl and told him to put the proliferated sections in the proper areas etc. He gave me a great deal if I remember correctly. Added some pics (sorry old camera phone pics). I really didn't like the salvage yard leather seats that I had in there... I guess I missed the feal of my old cloth seats.

Its in the Northside of Fort Worth, off of N. Main Street. Corner of Ellis and NW 14 St. Place is called Chappo's (well that what I call it, owners name). Best if you know spanish and as specific as possible in what you want him to do. I'm a very nit picky so I had show him pictures and ask him for colors he had available. Pictures aided in showing what the stiching should look like. Dont' rememeber what he charged but its VERY reasonable. PS- left my seats with him for a weekend or so. PSS- they have wierd hours.

Hope this helps.

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.
