Looks like September is pretty open if you all wanna stop by? I'm up for it.

Liftbacks are the best, shame they all pretty much disappeared now.

UPDATE
We've got motion!! Spent the last two days putting everything together. Flywheel, clutch, and pressure plate went on without a stumble. Lining up the trans proved difficult as always but I eventually got it on and bolted everything back up. Decided to do some upgrading from all my spare parts while I was putting it back together. With semi-new clutch and trans, I also grabbed my K&N intake from my old 7afe as well as the ebay header. Reused the axle from Jake's car or was it mine? I don't remember. I got axles sitting everywhere now. Also installed TRD springs & KYB struts to the front since it was apart. Will get to the back later as it wasn't being worked on and I ran out of time today. Since the brakes were rusted to ****, I decided to grab the brakes from my green car and put them on Freelica since it will be upgrading to GT brakes when the BEAMS is finished.Clutch - check Trans - check Intake - check Header - check Springs/struts- check Brakes - check put the axle nuts and wheels back on. tighten everything and dropped her back on all fours. Tossed in the battery and DONE! Freelica runs, drives, and goes bwwaaahhhhhhhhhh all over. lol sounds so funny with it being cut right after the downpipe. Then I gave her a nice long bath because she deserved one. Parked her with gramps and took some pics.PICS:           -------------------- *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

Yea, it was the easier of the two and the wife wants the blue car out of the yard soon so I had to get it done. Now I can strip the rest of the blue car for parts and junk it.
