Ever since them I have always said the only other "toy" car that I want would be an RA21. I am not finished with my MK3 or my mustang. But they both drive and look presentable. Given that I have room for 1 more car I am looking somewhat seriously for a celica now.
and what do I find...that awesome F20C swapped car built by exodus right in my backyard...I am trying to talk my self out of it. I want a factory original car with an 18RG. But good god that is a sweet build.
Then I see the beautifully restored 18RG swapped blue car (it was posted here for $13.5k) sells for $10,600 on ebay. I feel like I might have missed an awesome opportunity. The seller must have at last that into that build...but buying a restored car has never been my style.
We will have to see where this journey takes me. I called up Mike from STS last week and asked some questions regarding sourcing restoration parts. Seems I have a great resource 1.5 hours from my house. Hopefully I can find the right car. If any of you have any advice on buying a ra21 please share. I have restored several cars, and I am most concerned with sourcing hard to find parts. I plan to start with a vehicle that is complete and has a solid dash / seat foam / headliner / straight body. If there are any other pieces that are difficult to find in good shape let me know.
I look forward to contributing here.
! I was talking to a guy with a jz powered celica drag car on supraforums from nor cal called him cary and he corrected me to karey. I thought he was you all along??!! Who is the real cary who helped me out so much in college? (I feel like i am holding a gun and have to choose between 2 clones at this point!) hahaha.
