It is so nice having access to this stuff. Makes life a lot easier, especially in the winter time. I am not a big fan of working on cars outside in the cold. Except for going to the junk yard. I always love doing that, no matter how cold it is!

I like the older Celica's, have always thought they were some great looking cars. That one does appear to be a clean car. One of the guys at my local parts store had one that was fixed up and it will move quite fast.

Side note...that blue car on the last page is a factory Five racing kit car, not a Ferrari.
And I may have missed it, but why not just use the 84 4wd frame? too rusty?
looks great, even if a pristine 2wd DD candidate had to die

The 84 had a rotted frame as well. It was just a donor for the cab and axles
Thanks man

Not much going on here the last few weeks. We have been overwhelmed with other cars that need work. Plus, the current group of students I have are not as motivated to work as ones in the years past.
Hoping to get some wiring done on the engine in the near future here.
Things to work on next:
Drop steering arm. Getting from Kornhuskerwizard
Shocks. Also from Kornhuskerwizard
Weld in Front Shock hoops.
Need to get Lugnuts for all the wheels.
Finish bolting all the bead bolts down.
Get seat brackets made
Put drivers door glass back in
That is just a small running list of things that I can think of at the moment.
