Default Bought a new project/toy(ota)

'74 Celica. 99.5% rust free. Only rust is on the lower corner of drivers front fender by the door. Floor pans, trunk, undercarriage all look GREAT! Already had TRD springs and sway bars under it and A TRD cam and header as well as Weber side drafts on the motor. Few other things too like dual side mount fuel filters, Accel coil, Malory electric fuel pump, roll cage, racing lap belts and maybe more I haven't found yet. Plan on stripping it down, throwing on some new color, and generally cleaning it up all around.

Few pics for now...

sweet ride! Are you keeping with the red color? I also like that era 240z orange/red color! My first few years of driving, I had a 1979 Celica GT that I should have never sold.
