new guy first post

[1dumbquestion]

Well it says to introduce yourself so here I am.

I'm in my 40's and bought my 1st Celica ('75 GT) the day before I turned 16. Had it for about 4 years and got the itch about 5 years ago to find another. I've bought 4 since then and have a 74 GT as my project car. I just pulled a 2.3 turbo and BW 5spd from an '85 thunderbird as my future power plant for the Celica. I know there are much better options but I don't like to go with the norm. Looking forward to this site. Nice to meet you all, 1

Welcome to the club. Cant wait to see some pictures of your build.

Don't think we've seen that drivetrain yet. It's a interesting one for sure. It would be great if you could take lots of pics of the build and in particular the engine /gearbox install. Good to know how easy or difficult it is.

And finally, welcome to the forum there are many helpful people here, we pride ourselves in not being critical and try to offer advice in a positive manner.

There are no dumb questions...other than the ones I usually ask.

Cheers
Neil
