My Celica

So base story, it's a 2000 Toyota GTS 6speed. I bought it for $700 a spare engine and trans and some mods from my GT. The original owner took out the whole interior and sanded it down with 80 grit paper and painted it black. The headliner was red and the seats were TRD knock offs. The seats were the worst, the kid took the trd seats which are narrower than stock. Instead of building brackets and doing it right the kid took the stock seat brackets and sandwiched them in between a sheet of plywood. Farley and redneckracer will attest the the piss poor condition the interior was in. Outside the kid put some shitty fiberglass fenders on and painted the spray can black. Also had some crappy headlight overlays. There was a dent in the door and rear quarter from someone backing into him I suppose. The owner took bondo and didn't even sand it down and painted it spray can black. Did I mention the car is a midnight blue? Carbon blue to be exact.

 

After a complete interior swap from my red GT and spending a few hours fixing a bunch of electrical BS...I come to the start of my project. First off here are some pictures of the basic car when I bought it and the interior swapped out.

What are your plans for the car? Right not it just looks like a dirty broke ass Celica. Clean it real good then take more pics, it has potential.

 

It was a dirty broke ass Celica. The kid I bought it from for $700 I sold it back to for almost 2 grand. All I have now is the Ranger.

Well you went from a piece of shit with a hatch to a piece of shit that can haul slightly larger shit.
