    Saving another one

    Here is our latest Supra, a 85 silver manual. Another ebay purchase. Stripping it down for welding repairs, it just kept getting worse. How far do you go before it's too far?!!!
    Every 10mm bolt sheared off, all will have to be drilled out. We will keep going at it, the floor is quite good inside, and the spare wheel well is like new. How can different Supras rust away in completely different places












    This is a pic of how the car will eventually look, we are going for a Wide body JDM look. We have a spare hood so that we can make the power bulge.

    Well I'm glad to see i'm not the only one who wants to save these beautys. Everyone is so quick to part em out and scrap everytime they see rust, press on my friend, and good luck.

    How can people let such an amazing car get sooo bad...

    Thank goodness there are a few people still left willing to develop a car from ground up. Man, I have to say, I feel like the car is more mine than the manufacturers creation when I'm done. Can't wait to finish my own. You definitely took on a hand full though. Good luck with the restore
    I have an 82 Celica/Supra that has had a bad life and I am bringing it all the way back. She will be the shit again. Love these cars with a passion.

    Wow, that car was in pretty bad shape. Good luck with it, though. If I had the time, know-how and space to house such projects I would definitively work on some restoration projects myself as I know of several Supras in need of some love. But after struggling (and failing) to restore my previous Supra I found out it was best for me to get a new car that could care for my needs instead of the opposite ;-)

    Nice concept drawing BTW. Let us know how this turns out! :-)
