I absolutly LOVE this car........ :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
Just bought this new monster.... cant wait to get it all cleaned up and start thinking motor swap.... hmmmm can you say 4age?

Anyways, its an 81 Toyota Starlet, a lightweight little bruiser bred for the rally track. RWD, ultra light, and pretty stable, this one is going to get a full body restoration and then like I mentioned, going to teach me how to drift, then motor swap. I cant tell you how much I wanted one of these and how happy with this little gal I am. I named it Sumi which means necessarily beautiful in Japanese.




I love this car already....
