Finally got another celica!
« on: Feb 17, 2018, 03:11:52 pm »
Well guys after a 6 year hiatus of being celica-less and a 16 year search for what I really wanted I picked up a 73 RA21. It is ROUGH but be a fun restomod project. Pics coming soon!

Been way too long. Had the 4runner for a few years now and love it but just not the same. I do miss my old cressida though

Man I wish I could image tag lol. Not a whole lot of progress but the whole front of the car is stripped down to the shell. Going to completely gut it to the empty shell and media blast it. The 20r and 4spd are ready to pull and will be up for grabs if anybody wants it

Right click on the image and copy image address, then [ img] insert address here[/img] (should be a button for it on top)

If you are doing this on mobile I feel your pain.

I wanna see! Haha.
