Today I went to tow home my Celica (1994 ST Coupe) from its sitting spot. I had to tow it because the battery was completely dead and the way the engine is the car will only go 45mph. The engine is shot, the driverside window barely rolls up, the outside is red with LOTS of peeled clearcoat bubbles, theres a crack in the driverside door, the inside is nasty, and the speakers are warped but the good thing is the owner just gave it to me! Oh and it has 220,000 miles on it.

Im taking this one because the previous owner didn't want it, and I want to take my time in making a perfect beautiful Celica! Its a piece of junk, but I am so happy about it, LOL.

congratulations on this piece of junk that we all love - hope its a keeper

sooo you got it for free?

I think we'd all take a free celica anyday! congrats! snap some pix of it's current condition for us. and what are your plans?

Nothing like the satisfaction of taking a free/cheap car and turning it into something nice. Makes all the elbow grease and effort feel even better.

fantastic. Sounds like a nice project is going to happen

oh yes it is definately a keeper. I even grew since i last drove the car (Im 18, and drove it as a practice car when i was 15 for drivers ed), so thats another reason to keep it. I'm going to have the engine rebuilt and then fix the interior. then ill add go-fast parts, lol. thats as far ahead as ive thought.
