picked up a complet 88 supra with a 7mge today for 300$ the body is in decent shape so i will make most of the 300 back parting it out.

the car dosnt run as of right now it was getting no spark so i just spent the last 5 hours tracking down the issue only to find out that the fuel pump is dead but atleast it has spark now. i found another supra at the junk yard that i need the bellhousing and motor mount from to do the swap so i might grab the fuel pump off it so i can hear the motor run

i plan on at least doing the headgasket water pump timing belt ect. i will look over the bottom end but wont touch it if i dont need to

no time frame on the project just somthing to tinker with hear and there untill i get the motor where i want it

the front left tire was in the hole you can see in the pic and the rear right was in the air, i didnt see the extra 4in rise on the pass side front and it was just enough to put me over. the cage held up great considering it landed hard i did bend one peice a little

runner looks great. when you painted your runner how much sanding did you do, did you just knock down the clear coat or what. also did you wet sand the paint?

Holy crap dude, you must put all of your free time into this thing, lol. That thing has seriously turned around! Looks great, and looks like it could take a beating, lol. Great job man. Are you putting that Supra motor in it?
