Car Info:
For those of you who have seen this car know that it is clean. For those of you who know your supras, knows that its incredibly rare. I came across this 1982 Red/Black MkII a year ago this August and bought it for myself as a wedding present. Shortly afterwards I bought an 85 shell that I could put my 6M into, and now that's the car that I daily drive. Due to the fact that my wife and I have so many cars and that I won't be giving this car a good garage to stay in, I want to sell it so that it stays well-preserved. Here's some info on the car:
VIN#: JT2MA67L500003622 <-- Very early model. SEP 1981 Build Date

MODEL: MA61L-BLMQFA
C/TR/A/TM: 299 FX21 F303 W58
For those that don't know about this, the 299 color scheme was only offered for 82 models, and I've spent a good portion of the day today finding out just how many we've seen in this forum's history. I've counted 8 including mine (donkita, bigpanda16, doug82supra, Tanya, sickntwstdtoy, Utterly1337, jmdeguia, Mone). The 299 color scheme is also the ONLY color scheme where the front bumper was colored (other than black).
The interior is AMAZING. Not a single rip in any of the vinyl, and with the exception of 2 small blemishes, it would be a 10/10. As it sits, I would give it a 9.5/10, you can nitpick it to a 9/10, but really can't get lower than that.
The engine runs strong. I was surprised for an 82 5M on the 3.73 gears. I replaced the timing belt 4k miles ago, as well as the idler pulley, and the oil was changed 300 miles ago. The radiator was newly purchased from the owner before me, as was the water pump and clutch fan. I just flushed the radiator today and replaced the coolant as well as re-timing it. I got 24mpg this last fillup, and have regularly been getting 22-24mpg.
The tires are 235/60/R14s all around with plenty of tread still on them. They were put on the car 1.5 years ago, so they should still be good age-wise as well. I have the original spare in the back as well, but as its a VERY old tire, it should not be used and should only be used as part of a showcase.
I originally bought the car because I wanted MkII again. After looking at it for the first time, I instantly knew that I couldn't daily drive it. It is in way too good of condition to be driven heavily. This is a timepiece, and it needs to be a garage queen for someone. I wouldn't be selling this if I had a house that I could garage it in. I am also going to include the rare master key lock box. It makes a great addition to a showcase car.
If you say that my asking price is steep, or on the high side, I would beg to differ. As an example, you can read up on how one of our forum members paid $6k for his 299, which in all aspects I would rate as a 10/10 car. Against the scale where his car is a 10, I would say mine is a 9. There is not a single spec of rust on the body, inside or out. The only rust is on the hatch, which I believe was transplanted on because it has an aftermarket 85/86 spoiler.
Here is a link to the thread concerning his purchase, as well as a link to his cardomain where you can compare what I consider a 10/10 299 example, and you can see my car is reasonably a 9/10 299 example. So while I consider my car 90% as good as a $6000 supra, I'm only asking $4000 for mine from celicasupra.com members. I'll be putting the car on craigslist either tomorrow or tuesday with an asking price of $4500, as I like to discount the community because there's a better chance it will go to a good home within the community. I may also put it up on ebay, but I don't know if I want to do that yet (I've never sold anything on ebay before and only purchased one thing on it, so I a car might not make a good first transaction).
donkita's purchase (http://forums.celicasupra.com/showthread.php?t=27452)
donkita's 299 pics (http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2553482)
This car needs less than $1000 worth of bits and pieces here and there to get it up to the level of donkita's $6000 beauty, and really won't require much time either. Its mostly just paint touch-ups (for the front bumper) and fill in pieces (like the left rear suspension cap).
Without further a due, on to my pics...
