LOL
I dont know how I come across this stuff, but I just bought my first race car... I just need to put it together
LOL

So I went to take a look at a $300 celica GT-s as a race car base.
and as I was wishy washy looking at it, she mentioned "oh you might also be intrested in my supra"
It looked a little better off than the celica but I have never been impressed with the supras......
I wasnt digging it till I poped the hood!!
turns out that it was a 6cylinder turbo supra!!
I picked them both up today for $700

Both were in running driving condition when parked 5 years ago.
the supra started and moves under its own power. We didnt f with the celica that much yet because the clutch is frozen in place. it cranks and fires with some either, but has worse gass in it than the supra. playing in the back yard with the supra was a blast and we found out
1 when you take appart the hood latch when it dosent work, you have a handy way of telling when its time to give your friend a turn driving (when the hood pops up)

2 supra has an LSD rear (2 deep trenches in the back yard insted of one from a hole shot)

3 a subaru RS will out run a supra in the grass.

The plan is to pull the supras drive train and plunk it into the celica, gut the intirror and start taking peoples money... till they catch on, then I will fix the body and use it as a dedicated race car.

That Celica looks like a job for Pimp My Ride.

 

Nice! I had an '84 GT-S. I once had similar aspirations to what you're doing. Good luck!
