Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior PROJECT!

Ok, this has mostly nothing to do with celicas but i thought I should share this with you guys. My friend and I are planning to buy a messed up car (not sure what type yet) at an auction for pretty cheap and fix it up. We're gonna first do basic repairs to the car so we can get it up and running again without having it break down, pretty much trying to bring it back to its original state at least. After that I dont care what happens to the car, we can fix it up to be a racer a show car or whatever. It's just gonna be a huge project we're gonna be working on for a few of years. We're gonna spend the next year planning and gathering the group to pull this off. We gotta create a team, figure out how to finance the project and where to do this. Ill be finishing a bunch of auto repair type classes at my community college by this time next year so the timing will be perfect. Hopefully this plan will become a reality. If any of you guys have any tips, comments or anything i should know to better plan and pull off this project I gladly welcome it. laterz

Ya i wanna do that too. A few friends have an import shop and we wanted to buy like a CRX and hatchback civic and do everything to it. We have a few turbo experts in the crew and that's all they think about so we have to make it fast. We were thinking of CRX and putting the grounddesigns 12 piece body kit on it. idk we wil see what happens.

i want to try a Supra. I saw one for like $1200 at a government auction. Cheap but its in really bad condition so its perfect for what i wanna do.

I think that this is every car enthusiasts dream. We all want to do something like this. If you do it, awesome! As for me...it would be a very long project, and I would probably have to stop modding my celi...and I can't stop modding my celi. Maybe after I'm done with modding my car, I can take on a project such as this. Good luck to you.

sounds like a plan guys

yeah thats the main problem im facing. I wanna do the car fix up but i also need to save up for the celica mods...decisions decisions...
