    Supra Unearthed

    I was bored today and searching around the internet and decided to look for "Supra", and I found this post on Car Buz that has a brief bio of our cars and, surprisingly, featured my car. Pretty cool.

    See link:

    @Rich64N: No one ever contacted me but I was actually flattered that they would use the images to represent the Celica Supra brand. You sort of lose ownership when you post to the WWW. So, no, I don’t mind. Repost away…

    HAh... This is too much fun. I found the car featured in another forum www.velodidadmaxima.com. It is Spanish so I have no idea what the heck they are saying. They could be trashing it and I would be non-the-wiser. LOL

    Lol, Nice find. The guy on that last website is saying that he was inspired to fix his car after seeing your build.
    Loved your build by the way.

    It goes back and forth on that spanish website (google translate, all I got...) between praise and "why no motor mods?"



    ...like a boss.
