Where to start (still have 56k? call your cable company)
THE CAR is NOT done. This is a project car so please keep that in mind! <this should also help you understand why i haven't bothered to wash the car or worry about the interior that much.
Special request to the mods: Please move this if need be. Every things all over the place, and i figured the general tC forum was the right place.
Well, i've been gone as a member now for a long while. i've decided to come back and slowly introduce my project through tC through this thread. i'm not going to talk plans or aspirations, just what's done. i'll also update this thread accordingly as the project continues. i also am not sure where to start. lol.
Well, first.
i've had significant help through the team over at Heir Automotive LLC and some member's over at OhioScions.
Next i guess i'll fallow up with my exterior. New paint, rims, drop. on the M-Power Body kit. (sorry the car's dirty). The body kit has to be repainted do to adhesion problems with the fiberglass.








now for the interior. (it's messy i know. it's a tight place to work so i have to keep clearing room and bringing various parts into my house). The audio's definitely not complete yet. there a few more things i need to add.. but this will give you a general idea of what's going into the tC.




Now for the performance. We took out the 2az-fe and dropped in the Shocker. the most powerful engine in the world.

Really, that's all i have for now. call me a tease.. Rant about how i screwed up the oh so great Toyota paint.. Tell me i need to clean my car.. tell me my car won't run w.o an engine in it.. i've heard it all
. So please keep it constructive. and remember special things are happening here.

Nope. that's the final paint. it's a thousand times better in person, because natural light and salt from the streets makes it look really blotchy.. i won't have clean or great pictures for a while.. as this is it in it's current state. lol.

Seriously i don't want to get into the engine quite yet.. however that's the final paint.. some people detest it.. i love it though.

It's like a old 30-40 rat rod with the flat black paint scheme. something different.
That rear bumper needs to be adjusted so you don't have those nasty gaps!!!!
