I'm looking to sell my celica in its current condition and sorry im not parting. im am just too busy with school that i have no time to part it out. the engine is at 191,xxx miles and it is still running strong. the car is almost stock, i added a sri. the reason im selling the car is cuz my brother took it out one night and had some fun if you kno what i mean xD. you dont know how mad i was when i found out. well the insurance isnt gonna cover anything and we just got a brand new car. insurance is so high that i cant afford to keep my celica, so imma have to let her go. the car has some body damage and suspension damage. omg i cant believed that this happened. i just paid $350 for a complete brake job too, rotors, pads, brake hose, caliphers, the works. and then this happens argh. if i knew that i wouldnt have done the repairs. anywho here are some pics.

this is the next morning after what happened

i was thinking about fixing my celica but then i decided that not to because of my financial situation lol. thats kinda why the fender is off. i took it off before i decided not to fix it.

looking to sell the car for $1,000 or BO, i really would like to sell my celica to someone in the 6gc community instead of throwing it away in the junkyard. the car is just sitting in the yard. i live in Lynn, MA. send me a pm if you have any questions.

bump... is any one interested? hmm maybe i should rethink about fixing her

where are you at?

Lynn, MA

oh. ya im on the west coast. too bad, i kinda needed the engine.

it really doesnt look that hard to fix...

just some time and sweat bending it back into place alittle.
you can prolly get a fender from a local junkyard for 40 bucks or under, and prolly a headlight for around the same price.

i really don't see it costing more then 100 bucks to fix...
that is, if you are willing to live with the paint being scratched off,

*edit*
oh, just read about the suspension damage. nvm

i wish i had the cash right now i so take it off your hands, but if you do end up wanting to fix it . i think brandy brow's junk yard in plaistowNH just got and st that was rearended and all front end components were good.

I have a buddy thats been looking to join the 6gc community, hes into this kinda stuff so lemme check w/ him. I'll pm u if hes interested...


p.s. I live near the cape so I'd be able to pick up

anyone in the north shore area willing take her off my hands and fix her up?

if $1000 seems a bit much throw me an offer

is it still driveable, what about the interior?

its not really safe to drive until the suspension is fixed interior is good, driver seat looks like a dog ate it but thats what seat covers are for

what is wrong with the suspension... could you give a rundown of what needs to replaced and such... im def interested

to tell you truth i have no idea what is really wrong with it. when you turn its not as tight as it was before. when you turn right it feels normal by that i mean tight. when you turn left the steering is feels loose and takes many turns of the wheel to get it to turn the way you want it too. also either the control arm is bent or the strut. i just had a $300 brake job done to the car too (new calipher, rotors, disc replacements). right now shes just sitting in the back yard. i miss driving her.

its that i put alot of money into repairs. bought the celica off my dads boss for $2500 and spent over$3000 on repairs. the car is mechanically fine but people dont know how to drive and hit me. love to keep her but hey im a broke college student wat can i do?

hope the first part answers your question

anyone locally willing to take her off my hands for cheap? from the damage i would say she would take alot to fix so it would more fit to be used for parts

whats broke on the suspension? tie rods? a frame?
if someone just put coulovers on it would it fix the problem?

i wouldnt be able to tell you whats broke but im kinda just guessing. the wheel is at an angle so maybe its the strut or its the control arm. could as well be just the tie rods as well. other parts might also be damaged but my untrained eyes can't tell the difference

how is the radiator? any cracks or leaks?

Jack her up, take some pictures under that driver side corner and people should be able to tell whats wrong if you take the right pictures and you can get a buyer or possibly fix it yourself. Also,

How many miles does your car have?
Hows the clutch?
More pictures will help your situation.

Good luck.

from my inspection i would say the radiator is leaking. im seeing a lil puddle on the ground but did not really make sure it was radiator fluid. i'd say the puddle is like 3in in diameter.

the car has 191,000 miles on it. my dad told me the tranny was rebuilt just before we bought it. that was about 2 years ago and 25k miles ago. the a new clutch was put in when they rebuilt it. here are some pics of the suspension.





the second pic is not too good i might take that one again.

just a guess but i would say you need a new tie rod end ( maybe $20 at autozone) then just a front end alignment. not to hard to fix or costly as far as the suspension goes.
