u might wanna add some welding on top of that too though.

but hey, for $600, if it runs and drives, it's all good.

Looks good for the money alright! Had a good look underneath? Rust like that in very visible places doesn't bode well for those not so visible places. Every day I'm thankful I left my own rain sodden country!



Those wheels are really nice! I like them a lot! Would look even better with a slight lowering too, I'd say.

Yeah, you really can't go wrong with a $600 car that runs, drives and isn't rotten to the core. Good buy! I hate those Primax 618's thought lol. I had those on a '93 Civic coupe back in '99 ... thought they were the coolest thing back then ...

my plan for now aree using my gray celica for winter and the blue turbo one for summer, so, i will keep the engine and transmission on the gray celica, but i will put the front bumper from vis on it and get a gt4 one for my blue celi....
not much plan for that car , but, i sold my civic and drive celi in winter, thats the ideas
