Here's a sad story: I sent it to get painted at a local college becos labor was free. it sat in there for 1 1/2 years
Then when they were done in July 2008 i took it to the mechanic to transform her into an AWD. But I am now leaving the country to singapore for work for an indefinite period of time. The car still needs a ST205 fuel tank and the 2 front drive axles So i'll never get to drive it and experience the AWD =( If anyone wants to take it off my hands feel free to. if not she'll just be sitting at my mechanic's shop. ( he said he didn't mind me leaving it there) Please communicate through my email: longsbeans@hotmail.com. since the PM box here is so small -Bought car from Ryu3x16 in april 2006 -Clean title, -I know a place to pass smog, -the 3s has about 50k miles on it -chassis has about 140k -whats being installed now: brand new clutch and fly wheel, ST205 rear diff and the whole 9 yards. -Brand new paint, I only saw it for couple of hours driving from the college to the mechanic. - I pretty much prepaid for most of the work and parts already U can see my profile for more the existing mods. or here is ryu's profile of the car http://www.6gc.net/index.php?action=members&itu=774 *sob* EDIT#5: dropped the price to $5000. need to sell this...its been too long...someone takeover this baby of mine EDIT#4: Raymond(and the car) has now moved to 19949 Valley Boulevard, Walnut, CA 91789 EDIT#3: edited price becos its still not finished (fuel tank and front axles). The car's at 2875 South Diamond Bar Boulevard, Diamond Bar, CA 91765-3418 EDIT #2: just added some latest pics i took from the mechanic's shop. The celica's all dusty from the ashes in the air. I posted these pics on page 2 of this thread EDIT#1: Here's an article on a an engine project by my mechanic Raymond: http://www.superstreetonline.com/featuredv..._sr5/index.html His facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/db-Au...161478583880746 This post has been edited by longsbeans: Feb 8, 2015 - 11:27 AM |

some pics at the mechnics: its all dusty from the fire ashes in the air.
Personally i don't like the gold GT four sign. One of the students at Los angeles trade tech decided t put it there without my consent. I was going to remove it once the car was ready...oh well.. some of you may like it... |

Nope it hasn't been started. I am not back but will be for a short holiday sometime this year. hope to sell this car by then.
The AWD is in. the only 2 things left is the front drive axles and the fuel tank. If someone can find these parts and give it to Raymond the mechanic he will finish up the car. |

would you be willing to separate the spoiler from the hatch and ship? I know it's kind of a pain in the a$$ and I dont REALLY need it, but maybe we can working something out. I"m going to be starting my SSIII exterior as soon as I get my RHD and Beams in, and I need a two-post spoiler. Just lmk Ive got a set of gt4 front and rear axles |

Hmmm... This might be a better route than me trying to import a GT4 here to the States. I can get the car from you LongsBeans. But I'll need a month. Reason why is because I'm currently deployed in Afghanistan. And my wife lives in Sacramento, CA. Only way for me to do this is to pay you. Then have the shop guy fix it for me while I send him the parts and pay labor. And after that, get a shipping service to send it to my wife. That'll take... another 2 more months after purchase... Hmmmm... What to do. Also, may I get pix of the car send to xcross85@yahoo.com. For some reason, this satellite signal over here isn't letting me load the images. Thanks.

Still waiting on a reply... This car has been sitting at the mechanics shop for almost 4 years... Does anyone know the mechanic? Anyone able to go see if it's still there and running?
